SPDX-License-Identifier: CC-BY-4.0 + +*********************** +Testing developer guide +*********************** + +.. toctree:: + :numbered: + :maxdepth: 2 + + +============ +Introduction +============ + +The OPNFV testing ecosystem is wide. + +The goal of this guide consists in providing some guidelines for new developers +involved in test areas. + +For the description of the ecosystem, see `[1]`_. + +================= +Developer journey +================= + +There are several ways to join test projects as a developer. In fact you may: + + * Develop new test cases + * Develop frameworks + * Develop tooling (reporting, dashboards, graphs, middleware,...) + +These different tasks may be done within a specific project or as a shared +resource accross the different projects. + +If you develop new test cases, the best practice is to contribute upstream as +much as possible. You may contact the testing group to know which project - in +OPNFV or upstream - would be the best place to host the test cases. Such +contributions are usually directly connected to a specific project, more details +can be found in the user guides of the testing projects. + +Each OPNFV testing project provides test cases and the framework to manage them. +As a developer, you can obviously contribute to them. The developer guide of +the testing projects shall indicate the procedure to follow. + +Tooling may be specific to a project or generic to all the projects. For +specific tooling, please report to the test project user guide. The tooling used +by several test projects will be detailed in this document. + +Be involved in the testing group +================================ + +The testing group is a self organized working group. The OPNFV projects dealing +with testing are invited to participate in order to elaborate and consolidate a +consistant test strategy (test case definition, scope of projects, resources for +long duration, documentation, ...) and align tooling or best practices. + +A weekly meeting is organized, the agenda may be amended by any participant. +2 slots have been defined (US and APAC). Agendas and minutes are public.See +`[8]`_ for details. +The testing group IRC channel is #opnfv-testperf + +Best practices +============== + +All the test projects do not have the same maturity and/or number of +contributors. The nature of the test projects may be also different. The +following best practices may not be acurate for all the projects and are only +indicative. Contact the testing group for further details. + + +Repository structure +--------------------- + +Most of the projects have a similar structure, which can be defined as follows:: + + `-- home + |-- requirements.txt + |-- setup.py + |-- tox.ini + | + |-- + | |-- + | |-- + | `-- + | + |-- docker + | |-- Dockerfile + | `-- Dockerfile.aarch64.patch + |-- + `- docs + |-- release + | |-- release-notes + | `-- results + `-- testing + |-- developer + | `-- devguide + |-- user + `-- userguide + + +API +--- +Test projects are installing tools and triggering tests. When it is possible it +is recommended to implement an API in order to perform the different actions. + +Each test project should be able to expose and consume APIs from other test +projects. This pseudo micro service approach should allow a flexible use of +the different projects and reduce the risk of overlapping. In fact if project A +provides an API to deploy a traffic generator, it is better to reuse it rather +than implementing a new way to deploy it. This approach has not been implemented +yet but the prerequisite consiting in exposing and API has already been done by +several test projects. + + +CLI +--- +Most of the test projects provide a docker as deliverable. Once connected, it is +possible to prepare the environement and run tests through a CLI. + + +Dockerization +------------- +Dockerization has been introduced in Brahmaputra and adopted by the test +projects. Docker containers are pulled on the jumphost of OPNFV POD. + + + + +Unit tests +---------- + + +Traffic generators +------------------ + + +====================================== +Testing group configuration parameters +====================================== + + +Testing categories +================== + +The testing group defined several categories also known as tiers.
