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> <p>For more details you can look at:</p> <ul> <li> A <a href="https://libvirt.org/sources/libvirt-test-API/Libvirt-test-API.pdf">documentation PDF</a> file describing the test suite and how to write test cases and test scenarios.</li> </ul> <p> Libvirt-test-API is maintained using <a href="https://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt-test-API.git">a GIT repository</a>, and comment, patches and reviews are carried on the <a href="contact.html">libvir-list</a> development list.</p> </body> </html>
