You can: + + * Develop new internal test cases + * Integrate the tests from your feature project + * Develop the framework to ease the integration of external test cases + * Develop the API / Test collection framework + * Develop dashboards or automatic reporting portals + +This document describes how, as a developer, you may interact with the +Functest project. The first section details the main working areas of +the project. The Second part is a list of "How to" to help you to join +the Functest family whatever your field of interest is. + + +======================== +Functest developer areas +======================== + + +Functest High level architecture +================================ + +Functest is project delivering a test container dedicated to OPNFV. +It includes the tools, the scripts and the test scenarios. + +Functest can be described as follow:: + + +----------------------+ + | | + | +--------------+ | +-------------------+ + | | | | Public | | + | | Tools | +------------------+ OPNFV | + | | Scripts | | | System Under Test | + | | Scenarios | +------------------+ | + | | | | Management | | + | +--------------+ | +-------------------+ + | | + | Functest Docker | + | | + +----------------------+ + +Functest internal test cases +============================ +The internal test cases in Danube are: + + * healthcheck + * connection_check + * api_check + * vping_ssh + * vping_userdata + * odl + * snaps_smoke + * tempest_smoke_serial + * rally_sanity + * tempest_full_parallel + * rally_full + * cloudify_ims + +By internal, we mean that this particular test cases have been +developped and/or integrated by functest contributors and the associated +code is hosted in the Functest repository. +An internal case can be fully developped or a simple integration of +upstream suites (e.g. Tempest/Rally developped in OpenStack are just +integrated in Functest). +The structure of this repository is detailed in `[1]`_. +The main internal test cases are in the opnfv_tests subfolder of the +repository, the internal test cases are: + + * sdn: odl, onos + * openstack: healthcheck, vping_ssh, vping_userdata, tempest_*, rally_*, connection_check, api_check, snaps_smoke + * vnf: cloudify_ims + +If you want to create a new test case you will have to create a new +folder under the testcases directory. + +Functest external test cases +============================ +The external test cases are inherited from other OPNFV projects, +especially the feature projects. + +The external test cases are: + + * promise + * doctor + * onos + * bgpvpn + * copper + * security_scan + * sfc-odl + * sfc-onos + * parser + * domino + * multisite + * opera_ims + * orchestra_ims + + +The code to run these test cases may be directly in the repository of +the project. We have also a **features** sub directory under opnfv_tests +directory that may be used (it can be usefull if you want to reuse +Functest library). + +Functest framework +================== + +Functest can be considered as a framework. +Functest is release as a docker file, including tools, scripts and a CLI +to prepare the environement and run tests. +It simplifies the integration of external test suites in CI pipeline +and provide commodity tools to collect and display results. + +Since Colorado, test categories also known as tiers have been created to +group similar tests, provide consistant sub-lists and at the end optimize +test duration for CI (see How To section). + +The definition of the tiers has been agreed by the testing working group. + +The tiers are: + * healthcheck + * smoke + * features + * components + * performance + * vnf + * stress + +Functest abstraction classes +============================ + +In order to harmonize test integration, 3 abstraction classes have been +introduced in Danube: + + * testcase_base: base for any test case + * feature_base: abstraction for feature project + * vnf_base: abstraction for vnf onboarding + +The goal is to unify the way to run test from Functest. + +feature_base and vnf_base inherit from testcase_base. + + +-----------------------------------------+ + | | + | Testcase_base | + | | + | - init() | + | - run() | + | - publish_report() | + | - check_criteria() | + | | + +-----------------------------------------+ + | | + V V + +--------------------+ +--------------------------+ + | | | | + | feature_base | | vnf_base | + | | | | + | - prepare() | | - prepare() | + | - post() | | - deploy_orchestrator() | + | - parse_results() | | - deploy_vnf() | + | | | - test_vnf() | + | | | - clean() | + | | | - execute() | + | | | | + +--------------------+ +--------------------------+ + + +Functest util classes +===================== + +In order to simplify the creation of test cases, Functest develops some +functions that can be used by any feature or internal test cases. +Several features are supported such as logger, configuration management and +Openstack capabilities (snapshot, clean, tacker,..). +These functions can be found under <repo>/functest/utils and can be described as +follows: + +functest/utils/ +|-- config.py +|-- constants.py +|-- env.py +|-- functest_constants.py +|-- functest_logger.py +|-- functest_utils.py +|-- openstack_clean.py +|-- openstack_snapshot.py +|-- openstack_tacker.py +`-- openstack_utils.py + +Note that for Openstack, keystone v3 is now deployed by default by compass, +fuel and joid in Danube. All installers still support keysone v2 (deprecated in +next version). + +Test collection framework +========================= + +The OPNFV testing group created a test collection database to collect +the test results from CI: + + + http://testresults.opnfv.org/test/swagger/spec.html + + Authentication: opnfv/api@opnfv + +Any test project running on any lab integrated in CI can push the +results to this database. +This database can be used to see the evolution of the tests and compare +the results versus the installers, the scenarios or the labs. + + +Overall Architecture +-------------------- +The Test result management can be summarized as follows:: + + +-------------+ +-------------+ +-------------+ + | | | | | | + | Test | | Test | | Test | + | Project #1 | | Project #2 | | Project #N | + | | | | | | + +-------------+ +-------------+ +-------------+ + | | | + V V V + +-----------------------------------------+ + | | + | Test Rest API front end | + | http://testresults.opnfv.org/test | + | | + +-----------------------------------------+ + A | + | V + | +-------------------------+ + | | | + | | Test Results DB | + | | Mongo DB | + | | | + | +-------------------------+ + | + | + +----------------------+ + | | + | test Dashboard | + | | + +----------------------+ + +TestAPI description +------------------- +The TestAPI is used to declare pods, projects, test cases and test +results. Pods are the pods used to run the tests. +The results pushed in the database are related to pods, projects and +cases. If you try to push results of test done on non referenced pod, +the API will return an error message. + +An additional method dashboard has been added to post-process +the raw results in release Brahmaputra (deprecated in Colorado). + +The data model is very basic, 4 objects are created: + + * Pods + * Projects + * Testcases + * Results + +Pods:: + + { + "id": <ID>, + "details": <URL description of the POD>, + "creation_date": "YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS", + "name": <The POD Name>, + "mode": <metal or virtual>, + "role": <ci-pod or community-pod or single-node> + }, + +Projects:: + + { + "id": <ID>, + "name": <Name of the Project>, + "creation_date": "YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS", + "description": <Short description> + }, + +Testcases:: + + { + "id": <ID>, + "name":<Name of the test case>, + "project_name":<Name of belonged project>, + "creation_date": "YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS", + "description": <short description>, + "url":<URL for longer description> + }, + +Results:: + + { + "_id": <ID>, + "case_name": <Reference to the test case>, + "project_name": <Reference to project>, + "pod_name": <Reference to POD where the test was executed>, + "installer": <Installer Apex or Compass or Fuel or Joid>, + "version": <master or Colorado or Brahmaputra>, + "start_date": "YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS", + "stop_date": "YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS", + "build_tag": <such as "jenkins-functest-fuel-baremetal-daily-master-108">, + "scenario": <Scenario on which the test was executed>, + "criteria": <PASS or FAILED>, + "trust_indicator": { + "current": 0, + "histories": [] + } + } + +The API can described as follows.

The token value is added as a masked password. + +.. code-block:: python + + headers['X-Auth-Token'] = os.environ.get('TestApiToken') + +The above example is in Python. Token based authentication has been added so that only ci pods +jenkins job can have access to the database. + +Please note that currently token authorization is implemented but is not yet enabled. + + Automatic reporting + =================== + + An automatic reporting page has been created in order to provide a + consistant view of the scenarios. + In this page, each scenario is evaluated according to test criteria. + The code for the automatic reporting is available at `[8]`_. + + The results are collected from the centralized database every day and, + per scenario. A score is calculated based on the results from the last + 10 days. This score is the addition of single test scores. Each test + case has a success criteria reflected in the criteria field from the + results. + + Considering an instance of a scenario os-odl_l2-nofeature-ha, the + scoring is the addition of the scores of all the runnable tests from the + categories (tiers healthcheck, smoke and features) + corresponding to this scenario. + + + +---------------------+---------+---------+---------+---------+ + | Test | Apex | Compass | Fuel | Joid | + +=====================+=========+=========+=========+=========+ + | vPing_ssh | X | X | X | X | + +---------------------+---------+---------+---------+---------+ + | vPing_userdata | X | X | X | X | + +---------------------+---------+---------+---------+---------+ + | tempest_smoke_serial| X | X | X | X | + +---------------------+---------+---------+---------+---------+ + | rally_sanity | X | X | X | X | + +---------------------+---------+---------+---------+---------+ + | odl | X | X | X | X | + +---------------------+---------+---------+---------+---------+ + | promise | | | X | X | + +---------------------+---------+---------+---------+---------+ + | doctor | X | | X | | + +---------------------+---------+---------+---------+---------+ + | security_scan | X | | | | + +---------------------+---------+---------+---------+---------+ + | parser | | | X | | + +---------------------+---------+---------+---------+---------+ + | copper | X | | | X | + +---------------------+---------+---------+---------+---------+ + + All the testcases listed in the table are runnable on + os-odl_l2-nofeature scenarios. + If no result is available or if all the results are failed, the test + case get 0 point. + If it was succesfull at least once but not anymore during the 4 runs, + the case get 1 point (it worked once). + If at least 3 of the last 4 runs were successful, the case get 2 points. + If the last 4 runs of the test are successful, the test get 3 points. + + In the example above, the target score for fuel/os-odl_l2-nofeature-ha + is 3x6 = 18 points. + + The scenario is validated per installer when we got 3 points for all + individual test cases (e.g 18/18). + Please note that complex or long duration tests are not considered for + the scoring. The success criteria are not always easy to define and may + require specific hardware configuration. These results however provide + a good level of trust on the scenario. + + A web page is automatically generated every day to display the status. + This page can be found at `[9]`_. For the status, click on Status menu, + you may also get feedback for vims and tempest_smoke_serial test cases. + + Any validated scenario is stored in a local file on the web server. In + fact as we are using a sliding windows to get results, it may happen + that a successful scenarios is no more run (because considered as + stable) and then the number of iterations (4 needed) would not be + sufficient to get the green status. + + Please note that other test cases (e.g. sfc_odl, bgpvpn) need also + ODL configuration addons and as a consequence specific scenario. + There are not considered as runnable on the generic odl_l2 scenario. + +Dashboard +========= + +Dashboard is used to provide a consistant view of the results collected +in CI. +The results showed on the dashboard are post processed from the Database, +which only contains raw results. + +In Brahmaputra, we created a basic dashboard. +Since Colorado, it was decided to adopt ELK framework. Mongo DB results +are extracted to feed Elasticsearch database (`[7]`_). + +A script was developed to build elasticsearch data set. This +script can be found in `[16]`_. + +For next versions, it was decided to integrated bitergia dashboard. +Bitergia already provides a dashboard for code and infrastructure. +A new Test tab will be added. The dataset will be built by consuming +the TestAPI. + + +======= +How TOs +======= + +How Functest works? +=================== + +The installation and configuration of the Functest docker image is +described in `[1]`_. + +The procedure to start tests is described in `[2]`_ + + +How can I contribute to Functest? +================================= + +If you are already a contributor of any OPNFV project, you can +contribute to functest. If you are totally new to OPNFV, you must first +create your Linux Foundation account, then contact us in order to +declare you in the repository database. + +We distinguish 2 levels of contributors: + + * the standard contributor can push patch and vote +1/0/-1 on any Functest patch + * The commitor can vote -2/-1/0/+1/+2 and merge + +Functest commitors are promoted by the Functest contributors. + + +Where can I find some help to start? +==================================== + +This guide is made for you. You can also have a look at the project wiki +page `[10]`_. +There are references on documentation, video tutorials, tips... + +You can also directly contact us by mail with [Functest] prefix in the +title at opnfv-tech-discuss@lists.opnfv.org or on the IRC chan +#opnfv-functest. + + +What kind of testing do you do in Functest? +=========================================== + +Functest is focusing on Functional testing. The results must be PASS or +FAIL. We do not deal with performance and/or qualification tests. +We consider OPNFV as a black box and execute our tests from the jumphost +according to Pharos reference technical architecture. + +Upstream test suites are integrated (Rally/Tempest/ODL/ONOS,...). +If needed Functest may bootstrap temporarily testing activities if they +are identified but not covered yet by an existing testing project (e.g +security_scan before the creation of the security repository) + + +How test constraints are defined? +================================= + +Test constraints are defined according to 2 paramaters: + + * The scenario (DEPLOY_SCENARIO env variable) + * The installer (INSTALLER_TYPE env variable) + +A scenario is a formal description of the system under test. +The rules to define a scenario are described in `[4]`_ + +These 2 constraints are considered to determinate if the test is runnable +or not (e.g. no need to run onos suite on odl scenario). + +In the test declaration for CI, the test owner shall indicate these 2 +constraints. The file testcases.yaml `[5]`_ must be patched in git to +include new test cases. A more elaborated system based on template is +planned for next releases + +For each dependency, it is possible to define a regex:: + + name: promise + criteria: 'success_rate == 100%' + description: >- + Test suite from Promise project. + dependencies: + installer: '(fuel)|(joid)' + scenario: '' + +In the example above, it means that promise test will be runnable only +with joid or fuel installers on any scenario. + +The vims criteria means any installer and exclude onos and odl with +bgpvpn scenarios:: + + name: vims + criteria: 'status == "PASS"' + description: >- + This test case deploys an OpenSource vIMS solution from Clearwater + using the Cloudify orchestrator. It also runs some signaling traffic. + dependencies: + installer: '' + scenario: '(ocl)|(nosdn)|^(os-odl)((?!bgpvpn).)*$' + + +How to write and check constaint regex? +======================================= + +Regex are standard regex. You can have a look at `[11]`_ + +You can also easily test your regex via an online regex checker such as `[12]`_. +Put your scenario in the TEST STRING window (e.g. os-odl_l3-ovs-ha), put +your regex in the REGULAR EXPRESSION window, then you can test your rule +. + + +How to know which test I can run? +================================= + +You can use the API `[13]`_. The static declaration is in git `[5]`_ + +If you are in a Functest docker container (assuming that the +environement has been prepared): just use the CLI. + +You can get the list per Test cases or by Tier:: + + # functest testcase list + healthcheck + vping_ssh + vping_userdata + tempest_smoke_serial + rally_sanity + odl + doctor + security_scan + tempest_full_parallel + rally_full + vims + # functest tier list + - 0. healthcheck: + ['healthcheck'] + - 1. smoke: + ['vping_ssh', 'vping_userdata', 'tempest_smoke_serial', 'rally_sanity'] + - 2. sdn_suites: + ['odl'] + - 3. features: + ['doctor', 'security_scan'] + - 4. openstack: + ['tempest_full_parallel', 'rally_full'] + - 5. vnf: + ['vims'] + + +How to manually start Functest tests? +===================================== + +Assuming that you are connected on the jumphost and that the system is +"Pharos compliant", i.e the technical architecture is compatible with +the one defined in the Pharos project:: + + # docker pull opnfv/functest:latest + # envs="-e INSTALLER_TYPE=fuel -e INSTALLER_IP=10.20.0.2 -e DEPLOY_SCENARIO=os-odl_l2-nofeature-ha -e CI_DEBUG=true" + # sudo docker run --privileged=true -id ${envs} opnfv/functest:latest /bin/bash + + +Then you must connect to the docker container and source the +credentials:: + + # docker ps (copy the id) + # docker exec -ti <container_id> bash + # source $creds + + +You must first check if the environment is ready:: + + # functest env status + Functest environment ready to run tests. + + +If not ready, prepare the env by launching:: + + # functest env prepare + Functest environment ready to run tests. + +Once the Functest env is ready, you can use the CLI to start tests. + +You can run test cases per test case or per tier: + # functest testcase run <case name> or # functest tier run <tier name> + + +e.g:: + + # functest testcase run tempest_smoke_serial + # functest tier run features + + +If you want to run all the tests you can type:: + + # functest testcase run all + + +If you want to run all the tiers (same at the end that running all the +test cases) you can type:: + + # functest tier run all + + +How to declare my tests in Functest? +==================================== + +If you want to add new internal test cases, you can submit patch under +the testcases directory of Functest repository. + +For feature test integration, the code can be kept into your own +repository. The Functest files to be modified are: + + * functest/docker/Dockerfile: get your code in Functest container + * functest/ci/testcases.yaml: reference your test and its associated constraints + + +Dockerfile +---------- + +This file lists the repositories (internal or external) to be cloned in +the Functest container.

By default it is +enabled only for CI tests from Production CI pods. + +The architecture and associated API is described in previous chapter. +If you want to push your results from CI, you just have to call the API +at the end of your script. + +You can also reuse a python function defined in functest_utils.py:: + + def push_results_to_db(db_url, case_name, logger, pod_name,version, payload): + """ + POST results to the Result target DB + """ + url = db_url + "/results" + installer = get_installer_type(logger) + params = {"project_name": "functest", "case_name": case_name, + "pod_name": pod_name, "installer": installer, + "version": version, "details": payload} + + headers = {'Content-Type': 'application/json'} + try: + r = requests.post(url, data=json.dumps(params), headers=headers) + if logger: + logger.debug(r) + return True + except Exception, e: + print "Error [push_results_to_db('%s', '%s', '%s', '%s', '%s')]:" \ + % (db_url, case_name, pod_name, version, payload), e + return False + + +========== +References +========== + +_`[1]`: http://artifacts.opnfv.org/functest/docs/configguide/index.html Functest configuration guide + +_`[2]`: http://artifacts.opnfv.org/functest/docs/userguide/index.html functest user guide + +_`[3]`: https://wiki.opnfv.org/opnfv_test_dashboard Brahmaputra dashboard + +_`[4]`: https://wiki.opnfv.org/display/INF/CI+Scenario+Naming + +_`[5]`: https://git.opnfv.org/cgit/functest/tree/ci/testcases.yaml + +_`[6]`: https://git.opnfv.org/cgit/releng/tree/utils/test/result_collection_api + +_`[7]`: https://git.opnfv.org/cgit/releng/tree/utils/test/scripts + +_`[8]`: https://git.opnfv.org/cgit/releng/tree/utils/test/reporting/functest + +_`[9]`: http://testresults.opnfv.org/reporting/ + +_`[10]`: https://wiki.opnfv.org/opnfv_functional_testing + +_`[11]`: https://docs.python.org/2/howto/regex.html + +_`[12]`: https://regex101.com/ + +_`[13]`: http://testresults.opnfv.org/test/api/v1/projects/functest/cases + +_`[14]`: https://git.opnfv.org/cgit/releng/tree/jjb/functest/functest-daily.sh + +_`[15]`: https://git.opnfv.org/cgit/releng/tree/utils/test/result_collection_api/README.rst + +_`[16]`: https://git.opnfv.org/cgit/releng/tree/utils/test/scripts/mongo_to_elasticsearch.py + +_`[17]`: http://artifacts.opnfv.org/releng/docs/testapi.html + +OPNFV main site: http://www.opnfv.org + +OPNFV functional test page: https://wiki.opnfv.org/opnfv_functional_testing + +IRC support chan: #opnfv-functest + +_`OpenRC`: http://docs.openstack.org/user-guide/common/cli_set_environment_variables_using_openstack_rc.html + +_`Rally installation procedure`: https://rally.readthedocs.org/en/latest/tutorial/step_0_installation.html + +_`config_functest.yaml` : https://git.opnfv.org/cgit/functest/tree/testcases/config_functest.yaml |
