+
+This is a prototype of hardware validation implementation in redfish interface for a certain hardware vendor.
+which originally is contributed by China Mobile.
+>>> Usage:
+usage: hdv.py [-h] [--version] [--config CONFIG] [--file_type FILE_TYPE]
+ [--case_yaml CASE_YAML] [--depends_yaml DEPENDS_YAML]
+ [--case_excel CASE_EXCEL]
+
+hdv tool by redfish, it works in two mode
+
+optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+ --version show tool version
+ --config CONFIG given global config.yaml file
+ --file_type FILE_TYPE
+ config file type, [yaml|excel]
+ --case_yaml CASE_YAML
+ case yaml file, uesd if file_type = yaml
+ --depends_yaml DEPENDS_YAML
+ depends yaml file,uesd if file_type = yaml
+ --case_excel CASE_EXCEL
+ excel case file used if file_type = excel
+example:
+#default case
+1>python .\hdv.py
+following config used
+ - ./conf/config.yaml
+ - file_type=excel
+ - ./conf/cases.xlsx
+# use file_type=yaml
+2>python .\hdv.py --file_type=yaml
+
+example1. default conf/config.yaml, file_type=excel, cases.xlsx used
+python .\hdv.py
+example2. use yaml file type config, default conf/cases.yaml conf/depends.yaml used
+python .\hdv.py --file_type=yaml
+example3. user input config file
+python .\hdv.py --file_type=yaml --case_yaml=./conf-new/cases.yaml --depends_yaml=./conf-new/depends.yaml

+>>> Principle
+The hdv tool gets the global config from conf/config.yaml, e.g bmc settings, and
+global variable definitions, and some excel column position used in case file_type=excel
+User can select eiter file_type yaml or excel as the configure file type,
+default type is excel at present. However the principle is similar.
+
+If file_type is excel, it will parse two sheets of excel workbook, cases and dependent_id.
+The dependent_id sheet is used to define how to get the parents before checking a final redfish url,
+thinking about checking a port should get the adapter at first.
+The cases sheet is the test cases template, where the variable will be replaced
+by global static value from config yaml or dependent_id
+
+By running a final redfish url request, it will get response result from the test server.
+Then tool will compare the response value with expected value defined in <expected_result> column of cases sheet to decide if the case status.
+
+test report of each case <details,case_status> will write back to the same excel in the last two columns.
+
+Meanwhile, yaml file_type is supported also, it processes similarly as excel, except
+- reading depends.yaml to get the dependent_id
+- reading cases.yaml to run the test case
+- report.yaml will be created as the final report.
+cases.xlsx will not be used anymore in yaml case.
+
+Besides, excel_2_yaml.py script can be used to convert the cases.xlsx to yaml file accordingly.
+If you want to update the cases content, you can update the excel at first, then convert by the script.
+
+>>> FAQ:
+1. how to customize expected result?
+you need put a json format value in it, the hierachy should be exactly the same with actual returned value,
+as the comparing implementation relies on it.
+ => a simple example: '{"AssetTag": "CM_cc@1234"}'
+ => a complex example:
+'{ "count": 2, "Manufacturer": "Intel(R) Corporation", "MaxSpeedMHz":
+ 2300, "Model": "Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 5218N CPU @ 2.30GHz", "ProcessorArchitecture":
+ ["x86", "IA-64", "ARM", "MIPS", "OEM"], "Socket": [1, 2], "Status": { "Health":
+ "OK", "State": "Enabled" }, "TotalCores": 16, "TotalThreads":
+ 32}'
+
+in the above data, a specific "count" attribute defined to check components quantity returned, e.g How many cpus expected.
+generally it can be a subset attributes definition, comparing with actual return value
+also it can support list of all expected value for list of objects.
+example: "Socket:[1,2]", expecting return "Socket:1" and "Socket:2" from returned response
+
+>>>Perspective:
+- there are differences between vendors's implementation, or even versions for the same vendor.
+- define more test case or update existing case in the cases.yaml and depends.yaml or cases.xlsx file to support much more checks.
+- more implementation could be contributed from community so that it can grow bigger to support more types and checkpoints test case.
