2017-11-03teststeps: Improvements and bugfixing of teststepsMartin Klozik1-11/+28
This patch introduces several improvements and small bugfixes of teststeps. These changes were identified during implementation of OVS/DPDK regression tests. Patch content: * teststeps: step aliases were implemented * teststeps: improved filtering by regex for any step, which returns string or list of stings; filter will process all lines * teststeps: support for log object * teststeps: support for trafficgen get_results call * teststeps: configurable suppression of step validation * trafficgen: remove old results before traffic is executed * trafficgen: support for flow control on/off (IxNet) * trafficgen: support for configurable learning frames (IxNet) * trafficgen: support for runtime changes of TRAFFICGEN_PKT_SIZES, _DURATION and _LOSSRATE * vnf: flush pexpect output of previous commands * vnf: use execute_and_wait() to ensure correct cmds order * vnf: dpdk vHost User interface name set according to its type, e.g. dpdkvhostuserclient * vswitch: support for OVS restart * decap: simplify configuration of tunneling decapsulation tests * settings: values of all configuration options are restored after TC execution * modified formatting of test description used by --list * testcase name and description is logged before its execution * small bugfixes JIRA: VSPERF-539 Change-Id: I550ba0d897ece89abd3f33d6d66f545c4d863e7b Signed-off-by: Martin Klozik <martinx.klozik@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Al Morton <acmorton@att.com> Reviewed-by: Christian Trautman <ctrautma@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Sridhar Rao <sridhar.rao@spirent.com> Reviewed-by: Trevor Cooper <trevor.cooper@intel.com>
2017-06-02tests: Improvement of step driven testcasesMartin Klozik1-2/+2
A set of improvements was introduced to enhance step driven testcases capabilities. Details: * delay among test steps is configurable by TEST_STEP_DELAY parameter * step driven tool function exec was renamed to exec_shell * new step driven tool function exec_python was introduced to execute a python code * new step driven object sleep was introduced to pause test execution for defined number of seconds. * fixed bug in settings.validate_getValue() to correctly validate access of parameters modified by TEST_PARAMS * new #PARAM() macro was introduced to allow references among configuration parameters * multistream support has been added into ixnetrfc2544v2.tcl, which is used for tunneling protocols test (op2p deployment) * fixed bug in op2p deployment to list interfaces and flows from both bridges involved in the test * test report updated to state exact rfcxxxx type of traffic type, e.g. rfc2544_continuous * test report of step driven testcases was updated to contain measured values from traffic generator in CSV report * method for ovs flow comparison was modified to normalize IPv4 CIDR network addr (e.g. 10.0.0.5/8 => 10.0.0.0/8) JIRA: VSPERF-512 Change-Id: Ib4f38dcdfbf3820dd766b25520da0ad0c81f3293 Signed-off-by: Martin Klozik <martinx.klozik@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Al Morton <acmorton@att.com> Reviewed-by: Christian Trautman <ctrautma@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Sridhar Rao <sridhar.rao@spirent.com> Reviewed-by: Trevor Cooper <trevor.cooper@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Ciara Loftus <ciara.loftus@intel.com>
2016-11-09cli: Modify configuration via CLIMartin Klozik1-13/+4
In the past, only a few configuration parameters could be modified via --test-params CLI argument and it was not easy to find out their complete list. This patch adds support for generic modification of any configuration parameter via CLI argument --test-params or by "Parameters" section of testcase definition. Thus it is possible to customize a vsperf configuration environment per testcase or for each vsperf execution. Old CLI parameters duration, pkt_sizes, rfc2544_tests and rfc2889_trials were renamed to TRAFFICGEN_DURATION, TRAFFICGEN_PKT_SIZES, TRAFFICGEN_RFC2544_TESTS and TRAFFICGEN_RFC2889_TRIALS to be consistent with other configuration parameters.

2016-10-27teststeps: Generic support of step driven testsMartin Klozik1-9/+124
In the past, step driven testcases were supported only by integration testcases. This patch adds generic support of TestSteps for both integration and performance testcases. Step driven test were improved to support modification of existing deployment. As part of the patch a refactoring of traffic controllers were performed. Traffic controllers were modified to support trafficgen-off and trafficgen-pause modes in all possible ways of trafficgen invocation.

2015-06-08framework: Add reworked framework to repoBilly O'Mahony1-0/+60
This commit adds the vSwitch Integration Test Framework whose design, based off TOIT, is outlined in the HLD previously made availiable to the community for review. The design of this framework allows developers to add different implementations of components, specifically vSwitches, Traffic Generators, Metrics Collectors and VNFs, easily. The goal of this design is that all testcases should run regardless of what is "under the hood". This commit adds support for running the framework for a phy to phy RFC2544 testcase only. More testcases will be added by the community. vSwitches supported at this time: * Intel DPDK (r) accelerated OpenvSwitch Traffic Generators supported at this time: * IxNet - IxNetwork Implementation * Ixia - IxExplorer Implementation * Dummy - Manual Implementation Metrics Collectors supported at this time: * Linux Metrics No VNFs are supported at this time but the framework outlines how they should be integrated and provides APIs for them to adhere to.
