LVM2 Test Suite
===============
The codebase contains many tests in the test subdirectory.
Before running tests
--------------------
Keep in mind the testsuite MUST run under root user.
It is recommended not to use LVM on the test machine, especially when running
tests with udev (`make check_system`.)
You MUST disable (or mask) any LVM daemons:
- lvmetad
- dmeventd
- lvmpolld
- lvmdbusd
- lvmlockd
- clvmd
- cmirrord
Some lvm.conf options should be set:
- global/event_activation = 0
- activation/monitoring = 0
For running cluster tests, we are using singlenode locking. Pass
`--with-clvmd=singlenode` to configure.
NOTE: This is useful only for testing, and should not be used in production
code.
To run D-Bus daemon tests, existing D-Bus session is required.
Running tests
-------------
As root run:
make check
To run only tests matching a string:
make check T=test
To skip tests matching a string:
make check S=test
There are other targets and many environment variables can be used to tweak the
testsuite - for full list and description run `make -C test help`.
Installing testsuite
--------------------
It is possible to install and run a testsuite against installed LVM. Run the
following:
make -C test install
Then lvm2-testsuite binary can be executed to test installed binaries.
See `lvm2-testsuite --help` for options. The same environment variables can be
used as with `make check`.
