Tinfoil Test Plan

This article is the test plan for Tinfoil.

About Tinfoil

Tinfoil is an API that allows you to write simple utilities that call into bitbake code to read variables, parse recipes, etc

Objectives

Verify the functionality of Tinfoil API

Contacts

Jose, Perez Carranza

Paul, Eggleton

Scope

Test Cases will be designed to verify the different functionality of the API, all test cases should be designed to be executed in automated way.

- The first stage of test is a set of basic test listed on Features already tested

- The subsequent improvements to the Test Suite should be listed on Features to be tested

Test Strategy

<TBD>

Test Automation

All the test should be automated and executed under oe-selftest suite

Test Approach

Design of test are intended to cover the functionality of Tinfoil API, all the test will be executed every milestone on GDC AB and frequently on main AB

Test Cases Maintenance

Test cases are located

poky/meta/lib/oeqa/selftest/tinfoil.py

- To create a new test case a Testopia instance should be created on OE-CORE under "Test Cases" the number given by Testopia should be added prior to the test case name as below:

@testcase(<TESTOPIA_ID>)
def TEST_CASE_NAME(self):

- To send the patches of created or modified test cases rules defined here should be followed.
