Yocto 1.4 Overall Test Plan reversion history

Version Modifier Comments
1.0 Laurentiu Serban Initial Version
1.1 Laurentiu Serban Updated after comments from Yi Zhao
1.2 Laurentiu Serban Updated after comments and suggestions from the team
1.3 Laurentiu Serban Updated after comments and suggestions from Tom Zanussi


Yocto 1.4 Test Execution Plan

This test plan defines test targets/components, scope, strategy, configurations as well as test execution cycles for 1.4 version of Yocto.

Targets / Components to Be Tested

  • Core OS: The core OS feature included Yocto kernel, distribution components(like connman, smart updater & zypper), file system, device drivers (e.g. Intel Graphics Driver).
  • Core build system: includes build system tests also using additional features and tweaks for it.
  • Hob2: It includes functional tests for both frontend and backend of Hob2.
  • Yocto ADT: It includes cross-toolchain, Eclipse plugin tests.
  • Performance: Checks the CPU power behavior by software level tool, such as powertop. Real Power consumption when idle is collected. The performance of the build system is also recorded.
  • Distribution support: Current versions for supported distributions are tested along with one previous version and the beta release for the next one (the supported distributions are Ubuntu, Fedora, CentOS and OpenSUSE).
  • Compliance testing: LSB, LTP and POSIX tests are ran on the the selected targets.
  • Stress testing: Helltest + Crashme test suites are ran.

What will not Be Tested in Yocto v1.4

Following feature categories won't be tested by QA team in Yocto v1.4:

  • Documentation: QA will not validate the correctness of each documentation.
  • License file: license files and legal process are owned by Distro team.

Test Environment

Test Platform matrix

Following matrix is the target Test Plantforms for Yocto 1.4, with the target images will be validated in QA test.

Category Qemu Atom Core i7 Xeon ARM HW PPC HW MIPS HW
Platform           atom-pc generic FishRiver Island2 CrownBay eMenlow Sugarbay ChiefRiver HuronRiver JasperForest Beagleboard mpc8315e-rdb p1022ds routerstationpro
Arch x86_32 x86_64 arm ppc mips x86_32 x86_32 x86_32 x86_32 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 arm ppc ppc mips
Sato-SDK image yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes     yes yes yes yes
LSB-SDK image yes yes yes yes yes             yes yes   yes    


Notes:

  • Fullpass testing defined in execution plan will be performed against sato-sdk image.
  • The atom images are both emgd and no-emgd images

Test Strategy and Approach

QA will cover following tests for each target in each round fullpass testing.

Test Target System & Core OS ADT Compliance Stress Power/Performance Graphics Mulitimedia
qemux86 yes yes          
qemux86-64 yes yes     yes    
qemuarm yes yes          
qemumips yes yes          
qemuppc yes yes          
SugarBay yes   yes     yes yes
FishRiver Island 2 yes         yes yes
HuronRiver yes         yes  
Jasperforest yes     yes**      
eMenlow yes         yes yes
Beagleboard yes   yes* yes     yes
mpc8315e-rdb yes   yes        
routerstation yes   yes*        
p1022ds yes            

Note:

  • Compliance Test on Beagleboard and routerstation will only cover LTP and POSIX Test, since LSB test suite does not support ARM and MIPS.
  • Jasperforest is selected for stress test, because it is powerful with 12 CPUs and 2GB memory. Moreover, it is a server, which needs more stress tests.


Core build feature Functionality Performance Distribution Support
Yocto build yes yes yes
Hob2 yes n/a yes
ADT&Toolchain yes n/a yes

Note:

  • For other core build features not listed, QA will cover functionality test if there is no specific requirement for performance and distribution.

Test Levels

The Yocto 1.4 will be tested from the following different test execution levels.

Sanity Test

Sanity Test is a brief and quick test. It is integrated with each build process (including incremental build) in autobuilder system. It checks image basic functionalities, such as booting, network, zypper etc. Its results will be published in build web page and referred by the other testing. It is fully automation test and its execution time should be less than 10 minutes. Additional test cases can be defined and integrated.

Frequency: Sanity test can be run on autobuilder system against the built images or on the local development machines for the locally built images.

Scope: Sanity test checks basic functionality in QEMU and its execution time depends on the test cases scheduled to run


Weekly Test

Weekly test is a test cycle against the weekly image released through distribution team.

Frequency: Weekly Test is against weekly image and occurred each Thursday if image is ready on autobuilder system. It will cost 2 days for one round weekly test.

Scope: Weekly Test gives a weekly overview of the Yocto Project by verifiying the basic functionalities and features. It includes all the automated tests for the project components and several maunual tests necessary for feature validation (if those test cases are not automated yet or cannot be automated).

Coverage: The weekly tests cover parts of ADT & toolchain, Core Build System and HOB. Also meta-yocto images are tested. On request meta-intel BSPs can be covered in this stage of testing.

Fullpass Test - Pre-release

Frequency: The full pass tests done before the releases in order to validate the components and the new included features

Scope: The test verifies the integration of new features and the regression for the existing ones. The run includes the weekly testcases and also additional manual test cases. Performance tests are ran and also distribution validation tests. The test cases ran cover all the functionalities of the components.

Coverage: The weekly tests cover the entire functionalities for ADT & toolchain, Core Build System and HOB. Also the meta-yocto images are tested. Performace tests are also ran. meta-intel BSP releases are covered in this stage of testing.

Fullpass Test - Post-release

Frequency: The full pass tests done after the releases in order to validate the components and the new included features for the release candidates

Scope: The test verifies the quality of new features and the regression for the existing ones. The run includes the weekly testcases and also additional manual test cases. The test cases ran cover all the functionalities of the components. In addition to pre-release testing the stress and compliance test suites are ran

Coverage: The weekly tests cover the entire functionalities for ADT & toolchain, Core Build System and HOB. Also meta-yocto images are tested. Performance, Distribution, Stress and Compliance testing are covered. meta-intel BSP releases are covered in this stage of testing.

Basic functionalities of ADT, toolchain, HOB2 and Core Build System are tested on these targets (including all the automated tests cases)


Testing new features

The scope is verify if new features listed in Yocto 1.4 work as expected. QA needs to update the whiteboard for each feature in bugzilla with following status:

  • Test Plan Ready: It means QA has discussed with developers and understood how to test a new feature. Testcase design has been reviewed by developer. QA should set the status during a feature is in Design or Design Review stage.
  • Test Case Completed: It means QA has finished testcases implementation for a new feature. QA should set the status afer a feature is Development Finished.
  • QA Testing Completed: It means QA finishes validation of a new feature and send the result on bugzilla or send to developer.
  • No QA needed: It means there is no need to design any testcases for a new feature or QA has no resource to cover it.
  • Covered by current QA Test Plan: It means current QA test plan already covers the feature. No new cases needed.

Frequency: New Feature test is a continuous QA work within feature development phase. After one new feature is finished, test cases for it will be added into weekly or fullpass test.
