<h1>libvirt-test-API: Python based test suite </h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>Libvirt-test-API is a powerful test tool designed to complement
|
|
|
|
existing libvirt test tools such as libvirt-TCK and the internal
|
|
|
|
test suite. It aims at functional regression testing, trying to
|
|
|
|
exercise nearly all the API by the way of the Python bindings.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The test API currently covers:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
<li>domain: all classical lifetime operations, installation of
|
|
|
|
various guests OSes, snapshots</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>interfaces: define, create, destroy, undefine, NPIV</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>virtual networks: define, create, destroy, undefine</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>storage: regression tests for most storage types and configurations
|
|
|
|
dir, disk, netfs, iSCSI, multipath</li>
|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>Some of the tests need dedicated local resources whose definitions
|
|
|
|
are stored in a configuration file. The tests are defined using
|
|
|
|
Python modules defining the code for the test, this is called
|
|
|
|
a <tt>test case</tt>, and test <tt>configuration files</tt> using one
|
|
|
|
or more test case to define a given test scenario.</p>
