Implemented a directory and file structure that supports the requirements defined in the plugfest etherpad: https://etherpad.opnfv.org/p/cvp_tooling_sketch Change-Id: Icb7d2db4b0132f2039c680883e173ff5d7fc0120 Signed-off-by: ChristopherPrice --- .../testframework/dovetail.tool.installation.rst | 253 +++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 253 insertions(+) create mode 100644 docs/testing/developer/testframework/dovetail.tool.installation.rst (limited to 'docs/testing/developer/testframework/dovetail.tool.installation.rst') diff --git a/docs/testing/developer/testframework/dovetail.tool.installation.rst b/docs/testing/developer/testframework/dovetail.tool.installation.rst new file mode 100644 index 00000000..9d3bc39f --- /dev/null +++ b/docs/testing/developer/testframework/dovetail.tool.installation.rst @@ -0,0 +1,253 @@ +..

Moreover, dovetail tool can be easily +extended to support more complicated compliance requirements, +such as feature set based or scenario based compliance. + +If you want to run the ``debug`` testsuite, just run with + +:: + + dovetail run --testsuite debug + +Running Dovetail in a Docker container +######################################## + +The Dovetail tool can be run in a Docker container by utilizing the following steps: + +Pull Dovetail Docker image from public Dockerhub +------------------------------------------------ + +:: + + sudo docker pull opnfv/dovetail: + + here is the version, 'latest' is used for the master branch. + +(Optional) Create Docker image from Dockerfile +----------------------------------------------- +Instead of an official Docker image, you can build your own Docker image from +Dockerfile(s) located under the ``docker/`` directory. The ``Dockerfile`` +is based on Ubuntu and the ``Dockerfile.centos7`` file is for a CentOS based +Docker image. + +:: + + cd {dovetail_path}/dovetail/docker + docker build --no-cache -t opnfv/dovetail: --build-arg BRANCH=master . + +Dovetail Docker container creation +---------------------------------- + +Next, create the ``dovetail-docker-env`` file to define the environment parameters :: + + INSTALLER_TYPE=compass + INSTALLER_IP=192.168.200.2 + DEPLOY_TYPE=baremetal + DEPLOY_SCENARIO=ha-nosdn + CI_DEBUG=true + +or if an OpenStack credential file is provided. + +Then to instantiate the Dovetail Docker container, execute:: + + sudo docker run --privileged=true --rm -t \ + --env-file dovetail-docker-env OR \ + -v /home/opnfv/dovetail/results:/home/opnfv/dovetail/results \ + -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \ + --name (optional) \ + opnfv/dovetail: /bin/bash + +To attach dovetail container and Running test cases +---------------------------------------------------- + +Before connecting to the container, you can check the container status by running :: + + sudo docker ps -a + +Attach to the container by starting it and obtaining a bash prompt with :: + + sudo docker exec -it / bash + +Inside the container the following commands can be executed to trigger the testing :: + + dovetail run --testsuite compliance_set + +Offline Support +################ + +There are some SUTs that are isolated from the public internet, +so offline support is needed. The idea is to provide all of the packages of dovetail +release in http://artifacts.opnfv.org, then the user can download and transfer to their inner +development environment. + +The packages are shown in [2]_ + +TO DO: to introduce more when it is mature enough. + +Results Output +############### + +The running log is stored in ``/home/opnfv/dovetail/results/dovetail.log``. +The compliance report is stored in ``/home/opnfv/dovetail/results/dovetail_report.txt``. + +Dovetail Version and Release +############################ + +Dovetail version information is defined in ``setup.cfg``. +At the time of release, it is the dovetail team's responsibility to set +the ``version`` value in ``setup.cfg``. + + +..
