I saw the packages exists for 11.4 only at the moment. Do you plan to support at least SLE11 and 11.3 too ? I'm asking because we are in the loop to create SLE11-SP2 and for local testing it would be great not to be forced to update the workstation to 11.4 ;)

It currently does not include the kiwi testing part but that can be symlinked as the kiwi-test's setup.sh does.

I plan to hold , write, update the tests itself in the kiwi repo and provide the test description together with the kiwi image description. It would be great if your test-suite can provide a tool which allows me to call something like: os-autotest /path/to/os-image-file /path/to/test-case and then the test runs. Does something like this exist ? if not could you add that ? and last but not least; Do you plan to write some documentation for your test-suite, maybe available in the wiki or another place I can point people to if they want to know more about writing the tests ? Hope I did not bother you too much Thanks -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

So if a kiwi image description provides all that data I should be able to run a test with your test-suite, right ? if so, how would I start the test with start.pl ? and is there a specific reason why the image format must be an iso ?

It is possible to generalize that to also include HDD images that can be booted in qemu/kvm. it is probably possible to start&kill a new VM for each test. But it needs extra time for the repeated BIOS/bootloader/kernel/init part. And it might need some code changes. but you can also run DISTRI=manual ISO=/path/to/os-image.iso ./start.pl to bring up the VM and provide VNC for manual interaction and a TCP port (default:15223) for script interaction with it. This part will exit after 100 minutes or upon VM inactivity. Then you still need another script to run single tests. You could set the env var QEMUPORT=15223 and use the normal code paths for sending commands from stand-alone tests. And you need a way to decide if the outcome was OK/fail/unknown possibly also using the basetest::check method. Some kiwi image types do need an install step, but that could be included in the start procedure. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I added one test example to the 11.4 JeOS image description... more will follow. To run the test the following kiwi command is required kiwi --test-image /tmp/mytest/LimeJeOS-openSUSE-11.4.i686-1.11.4.iso \ --test-case /usr/share/kiwi/image/suse-11.4-JeOS/test/ \ --type iso May-09 11:40:19 <1> : Starting image test run... done May-09 11:40:19 <1> : Calling isotovideo, this can take some time... May-09 11:40:19 <1> : watch the screen session by: 'screen -r' done May-09 11:42:23 <1> : Find test results in /tmp/kiwi-testrun-EyyqgA/currentautoinst-log.txt support for other than iso image types would be great thanks -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
