As of today regression tests are an in-house breed, by making it a new package and distributing it ensures larger set of people use it and contribute to it. This can also be used by any consumer/user to build their own environment for glusterfs regression testing which is today limited only to 'upstream' 'glusterfs' releases and build.gluster.org Change-Id: I4f7e9fd1c49982dcf0d788ef6a83ffe895a956ac BUG: 764966 Signed-off-by: Harshavardhana <harsha@harshavardhana.net> Reviewed-on: http://review.gluster.org/5674 Reviewed-by: Niels de Vos <ndevos@redhat.com> Tested-by: Gluster Build System <jenkins@build.gluster.com>
Regression tests framework for GlusterFS
Prereq
- Build and install the version of glusterfs with your changes. Make sure the installed version is accessible from $PATH.
How-To
- To mount glusterfs, NEVER use 'mount -t glusterfs', instead use 'glusterfs -s ' method. This is because with the patch build setup doesnot install the /sbin/mount.glusterfs necessary, where as the glusterfs binary will be accessible with $PATH, and will pick the right version.
- (optional) Set environment variables to specify location of export directories and mount points. Unless you have special requirements, the defaults should just work. The variables themselves can be found at the top of tests/include.rc. All of them can be overriden with environment variables.
Usage
-
Execute
/usr/share/glusterfs/run-tests.sh
as root. -
If some test cases fail, report to GlusterFS community at
gluster-devel@nongnu.org
.
Reminder
- BE WARNED THAT THE TEST CASES DELETE /var/lib/glusterd/* !!!
