NFVbench Xtesting test cases and Xtesting CI integration
--------------------------------------------------------
NFVbench can leverages on `Xtesting CI <https://galaxy.ansible.com/collivier/xtesting>`_ and the common test case execution proposed by `Xtesting <https://xtesting.readthedocs.io/en/latest/>`_.
Thanks to a simple test case list, this tool deploys anywhere plug-and-play `CI/CD toolchains in a few commands <https://wiki.opnfv.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=32015004>`_.
In addition, it supports multiple components such as Jenkins and Gitlab CI (test schedulers) and multiple deployment models such as all-in-one or centralized services.
NFVbench using Xtesting and Xtesting CI will permit:
- smoothly assemble multiple heterogeneous test cases
- generate the Jenkins jobs
- deploy local CI/CD toolchains everywhere
- dump all test case results and logs for third-party conformance review
Xtesting CI only requires GNU/Linux as Operating System and asks for a few dependencies as described in Deploy your own Xtesting CI/CD toolchains:
- python-virtualenv
- docker.io
- git
Please note the next two points depending on the GNU/Linux distributions and the network settings:
- SELinux: you may have to add --system-site-packages when creating the virtualenv ("Aborting, target uses selinux but python bindings (libselinux-python) aren't installed!")
- Proxy: you may set your proxy in env for Ansible and in systemd for Docker https://docs.docker.com/config/daemon/systemd/#httphttps-proxy
Here is the default NFVbench tree as proposed in ``xtesting/ansible/host_vars/127.0.0.1`` file:
- ``/home/opnfv/nfvbench``
File content:
.. code-block:: bash
docker_args:
env: {}
volumes:
- /lib/modules/$(uname -r):/lib/modules/$(uname -r)
- /usr/src/kernels:/usr/src/kernels -v /dev:/dev
- /home/opnfv/nfvbench:/tmp/nfvbench
Please note: replace ``/home/opnfv/nfvbench`` with appropriate path to permit NFVbench container to access config file
To deploy your own CI toolchain running NFVbench:
.. code-block:: bash
virtualenv nfvbench
. nfvbench/bin/activate
pip install ansible
ansible-galaxy install collivier.xtesting
git clone https://gerrit.opnfv.org/gerrit/nfvbench nfvbench
ansible-playbook nfvbench/xtesting/ansible/site.yml
NFVbench Xtesting test cases and existing CI chain
--------------------------------------------------
For test automation purpose, Xtesting framework can be used as an executor of NFVbench test cases and called by a CI chain (Jenkins, Gitlab CI ...).
Xtesting use a testcases.yaml file to list and run test case. One basic testcases.yaml is provided by NFVbench natively but can be override.
Example of CI scenario:
.. image:: images/nfvbench-xtesting.png
1. Run NFVbench container using Xtesting python library
The NFVbench container can be started using docker run command.
To run NFVbench using docker run:
.. code-block:: bash
docker run --rm \
-e S3_ENDPOINT_URL=http://127.0.0.1:9000 \
-e S3_DST_URL=s3://xtesting/$BUILD_TAG/$JOB_NAME-$BUILD_ID \
-e HTTP_DST_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8181/$BUILD_TAG/$JOB_NAME-$BUILD_ID \
-e AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=xtesting \
-e AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=xtesting \
-e TEST_DB_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/v1/results \
-e NODE_NAME=nfvbench \
-e BUILD_TAG=$BUILD_TAG \
--privileged \
-v /lib/modules/$(uname -r):/lib/modules/$(uname -r) \
-v /usr/src/kernels:/usr/src/kernels -v /dev:/dev \
-v $HOME/nfvbench:/tmp/nfvbench \
-v $HOME/workspace/$JOB_NAME/results:/var/lib/xtesting/results \
opnfv/nfvbench run_tests -t 10kpps-pvp-run -r -p

+---------------------------------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| -e BUILD_TAG | (Xtesting) Environnement variable used as result key identifier in DB |
+---------------------------------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+

| | to the /tmp/nfvbench director in the container. |
| | Any other mapping can work as well |
+---------------------------------------------------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| -v $HOME/workspace/$JOB_NAME/results:/var/lib/xtesting/results| (Xtesting) folder mapping to pass files between the |

2. Run Xtesting test cases
Executed directly by NFVbench docker entrypoint after docker start.
3. Perform NFVbench test
Xtesting call NFVbench python script to execute test case scenario and wait for run to be terminated.
4. Export NFVbench result
If ``-r`` option is used, results are pushed to a DB through Xtesting.
If ``-p`` option is used, results are pushed to a S3 service through Xtesting.
Override testcases.yaml file
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To replace existing testcases.yaml file, using Xtesting CI add the volume mapping in ``xtesting/ansible/host_vars/127.0.0.1`` file:
.. code-block:: bash
docker_args:
env: {}
volumes:
- /lib/modules/$(uname -r):/lib/modules/$(uname -r)
- /usr/src/kernels:/usr/src/kernels -v /dev:/dev
- /home/opnfv/nfvbench:/tmp/nfvbench
- /home/opnfv/nfvbench/xtesting/testcases.yaml:/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/xtesting/ci/testcases.yaml
* ``/home/opnfv/nfvbench/xtesting/testcases.yaml:/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/xtesting/ci/testcases.yaml`` : volume mapping to pass testcases.yaml file between the host and the docker space. Host path required testcases.yaml file inside.
To replace existing testcases.yaml file, using NFVbench container:
.. code-block:: bash
docker run --name nfvbench --detach --privileged -v /lib/modules/$(uname -r):/lib/modules/$(uname -r) -v /usr/src/kernels:/usr/src/kernels -v /dev:/dev -v $HOME/nfvbench:/tmp/nfvbench \
-v $HOME/nfvbench/xtesting/testcases.yaml:/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/xtesting/ci/testcases.yaml \
opnfv/nfvbench
* ``$HOME/nfvbench/xtesting/testcases.yaml:/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/xtesting/ci/testcases.yaml`` : volume mapping to pass testcases.yaml file between the host and the docker space. Host path required testcases.yaml file inside.
Example of Xtesting test case
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. code-block:: bash

Examples of manual run
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If NFVbench container is already started in CLI mode (see Starting NFVbench in CLI mode dedicated chapter).
To do a single run at 10,000pps bi-directional (or 5kpps in each direction) using the PVP packet path:
.. code-block:: bash
docker exec -it nfvbench run_tests -t 10kpps-pvp-run
Xtesting option used:
* ``-t 10kpps-pvp-run`` : specify the test case to run
To pass all test cases:
.. code-block:: bash
docker exec -it nfvbench run_tests -t all
Xtesting option used:
* ``-t all`` : select all test cases existing in testcases.yaml file
