Basic Details
Running the Tests for pbr
The testing system is based on a combination of tox and testr. The canonical
approach to running tests is to simply run the command tox
.
This will create virtual environments, populate them with dependencies
and run all of the tests that OpenStack CI systems run. Behind the
scenes, tox is running testr run --parallel
, but is set up
such that you can supply any additional testr arguments that are needed
to tox. For example, you can run:
tox -- --analyze-isolation
to cause tox to tell testr to
add --analyze-isolation
to its argument list.
It is also possible to run the tests inside of a virtual environment
you have created, or it is possible that you have all of the
dependencies installed locally already. If you'd like to go this route,
the requirements are listed in requirements.txt
and the
requirements for testing are in test-requirements.txt
.
Installing them via pip, for instance, is simply:
pip install -r requirements.txt -r test-requirements.txt
In you go this route, you can interact with the testr command
directly. Running testr run
will run the entire test suite.
testr run --parallel
will run it in parallel (this is the
default incantation tox uses). More information about testr can be found
