===========
Test suites
===========
There is a few test suites available to developers for testing a given version
of libvirt:
- the internal test suite: present in the source code, it is run by developers
before submitting patches upstream, it is also suggested to have it run and
pass as part of the packaging process for distributions. It is run by
launching:
::
make check (libvirt 6.6.0 and older)
::
ninja test (libvirt 6.7.0 and newer)
in a source tree after compilation has finished. It doesn't really make
functional testing but checks that large portions of the code not interacting
directly with virtualization functions properly.
- the `TCK test suite <testtck.html>`__ is a functional test suite implemented
using the `Perl bindings <https://search.cpan.org/dist/Sys-Virt/>`__ of
libvirt. It is available separately as a
`download <ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/tck/>`__, as a
`package <https://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=libvirt-tck>`__
in Fedora distributions, but best is probably to get the `version from
GIT <https://gitlab.com/libvirt/libvirt-tck>`__.
- the `libvirt-test-API <testapi.html>`__ is also a functional test suite, but
implemented using the `Python bindings <python.html>`__ of libvirt. It is
available separately as a
`download <ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/libvirt-test-API/>`__, or directly get
the `version from GIT <https://gitlab.com/libvirt/libvirt-test-API/>`__.
