StarlingX Integration Test Framework

The project contains integration test cases that can be executed on an installed and configured StarlingX system.

Supported test cases:

• CLI tests over SSH connection to StarlingX system via OAM floating IP
• Platform RestAPI test cases via external endpoints
• Horizon test cases

Packages Required

• python >='3.4.3,<3.7'
• pytest>='3.1.0,<4.0'
• pexpect
• pyyaml
• requests (used by RestAPI test cases only)
• selenium (used by Horizon test cases only)
• Firefox (used by Horizon test cases only)
• pyvirtualdisplay (used by Horizon test cases only)
• ffmpeg (used by Horizon test cases only)
• Xvfb or Xephyr or Xvnc (used by pyvirtualdisplay for Horizon test cases only)

Setup Test Tool

This is a off-box test tool that needs to be set up once on a Linux server that can reach the StarlingX system under test (such as SSH to STX system, send/receive RestAPI requests, open Horizon page).

• Install above packages
• Clone stx-test repo
• Add absolute path for automated-pytest-suite to PYTHONPATH environment variable

Execute Test Cases

Precondition: STX system under test should be installed and configured.

• Customized config can be provided via --testcase-config <config_file>.
  Config template can be found at ${project_root}/stx-test_template.conf.
• Test cases can be selected by specifying via -m <markers>
• If stx-openstack is not deployed, platform specific marker should be specified,
  e.g., -m "platform_sanity or platform"
• Automation logs will be created at ${HOME}/AUTOMATION_LOGS directory by default.
  Log directory can also be specified with --resultlog=${LOG_DIR} commandline option
• Examples:

export project_root=<automated-pytest-suite dir>

# Include $project_root to PYTHONPATH if not already done
export PYTHONPATH=${PYTHONPATH}:${project_root}

cd $project_root

# Example 1: Run all platform_sanity test cases under testcases/
pytest -m platform_sanity --testcase-config=~/my_config.conf testcases/

# Example 2: Run platform_sanity or sanity (requires stx-openstack) test cases,
# on a StarlingX virtual box system that is already saved in consts/lab.py
# and save automation logs to /tmp/AUTOMATION_LOGS
pytest --resultlog=/tmp/ -m sanity --lab=vbox --natbox=localhost testcases/

# Example 3: List (not execute) the test cases with "migrate" in the name
pytest --collect-only -k "migrate" --lab=<stx_oam_fip> testcases/
