= Testing Strategy =
== Test Areas ==
By definition, {{ns:4}} is an open source collaboration project that provides templates, tools and methods to help you create custom Linux-based systems for embedded products regardless of the hardware architecture. Therefore, each internal project under {{ns:4}}, is an area subject to a testing process. Areas are grouped by the nature of their functionality, as follows:
* [[#Build System]]
* [[#Runtime testing]]
* [[#Developer Tools]]
* [[#Distribution Support]]
=== Build System ===
The build engine and the surrounding components, that provide the means to build an image or bake a bit of software. In this area the ''build-time'' tests are executed.
Currently, [[oe-selftest]] covers all [[#Bitbake]], oe-core and [[#Metadata]] autoamted tests.
The Testopia template for oe-selftest is found in oe-core Bugzilla product:
* [https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/tr_show_run.cgi?run_id=5017 oe-core/oe-selftest Weekly Template]
==== BitBake ====
Functional testing of BitBake, as a build engine with all its features and components against various configuration and scenarios.
The Testopia template for BitBake component is:
* [https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/tr_show_run.cgi?run_id=4915 Bitbake Full Pass Template]
==== Toaster ====
[https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/WebHob Toaster] is a Web-based interface to the Bitbake build system and the Poky distribution inside the Yocto Project. This project was formely known as Web Hob / Webhob / webhob, and you may still find references to the old name in the documentation.
The [https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Toaster_testing_plan Toaster testing plan] wiki covers all the validation performed against Toaster. The test process focuses mostly on validating the data collected from the build process and verifying the correct functionality of the Toaster GUI such as:
*UI interface
*Backend interaction with bitbake for build purposes
*Backend interaction with database for storing and accessing build informations
*The testing objective involves only positive testing for existing features on Toaster.
*Perform exploratory testing focusing on newer features; this can sometimes generate new test cases.
Here are the test run templates for Toaster:
* [https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/tr_show_run.cgi?run_id=5175  Backend Managed mode - Full Pass TEMPLATE]
* [https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/tr_show_run.cgi?run_id=5174  UI Managed Mode - Full Pass TEMPLATE]
* [https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/tr_show_run.cgi?run_id=5173  Backend - Weekly TEMPLATE]
* [https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/tr_show_run.cgi?run_id=5172  UI - Full Pass TEMPLATE]
* [https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/tr_show_run.cgi?run_id=4073  Exploratory TEMPLATE]
==== Metadata ====
Testing the core metadata of the {{ns:4}} is mainly covered in the overall testing process, through other [[#Test Areas]] like [[#BitBake]] and [[#Toaster]] mentioned above. We also have specific tests covering meta-yocto in the meta-yocto test run template, which we are running regularly at Full Pass:
* [https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/tr_show_run.cgi?run_id=4855 Meta-yocto - Full Pass Template]
==== Distro Testing ====
Distro Testing is intended to catch bugs that are distribution specific using the yocto-autobuilder. The tests are all run on identical hardware and with all OS-es updated. The distributions used are Fedora, Ubuntu, CentOS, OpenSuse with their latest update. If for a distribution, a beta version is available during the release, the n+1 (beta version) will be validated as well.<br/>
Refer to [https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Distribution_Support#Distro_Testing Distribution Support wiki] for more details.
[TBD] - distribution support wiki needs to be updated
The test run template for Distro testing, can be found in the [https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/tr_show_plan.cgi?plan_id=147 Automated Build testing Bugzilla product] in the master branch.
* [https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/tr_show_run.cgi?run_id=4083 Distro Template]
Our Distro config can be found here on contrib: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/yocto-autobuilder/log/?h=contrib/QAsetup/ABubuntu
=== Runtime testing ===
Area focused on a target operating system or an application that comes with it, as the output of a build process. In this area the ''run-time'' tests are executed.
For test coverage, we are running the automated tests using [[Image tests]].

==== Sanity Testing ====
BSP Sanity testing is performed by the public [[AutoBuilder]], where all the BSP artifacts are built and checked if they are built correctly. On public [[AutoBuilder]], [[Image tests]] is being run also on the QEMU images as well.
==== Weekly Testing ====
Consists in running all automated BSP tests, whihc are targeted to run on a weekly basis against the weekly build. Enabling and running the tests is described on the [[Image tests]] wiki page. The tests are available for QEMU BSPs and as well BSPs installed on real Hardware. For Coverage, please check [[#Runtime testing]] WR column
==== Full Pass ====
The full pass testing aims to run the BSP test cases which are not automated. They extend what is covered by [[#Weekly Testing]] by containing more complex scenarios like changing runlevels, or audio tests. for reference, please check [[#Runtime testing]] FP column.
The [[Testopia]] test run templates used for [[#Runtime testing]] can be found in the [https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/tr_show_product.cgi?product_id=66 BSPs Bugzilla product] and are the following:

Here is the Build Appliance Testopia Template:
* [https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/tr_show_run.cgi?run_id=4047 Build Appliance Template]
= Testing tools =
== Autobuilder ==
More information can be found in the [[AutoBuilder]] wiki.
== oe-selftest ==
Oe-selftest is a test framework used for testing the OpenEmbedded build system. Following are some key points in describing oe-selftest:
* based on Python unittest
* designed to simulate normal usage patterns
* does not cover image run-time testing
* implements a new layer that contains generic/specific metadata used only by tests
Details regarding oe-selftest implementation and usage are available on [[Oe-selftest]] wiki.
== Image tests ==
== Compliance Testing ==
Compliance test suites / frameworks used on genericx86-64:
* LSB tests
* POSIX tests
* LTP tests
Install steps:
# Download lsb image from autobuilder( same image as in LSB weekly testing for genericx86-64-lsb bsp)
#* we test compliance on NUC with genericx86-64-lsb, core-image-lsb-sdk
# Install the image on DUT
# Configure the network so it be able to work externally:
#* edit /etc/resolv.conf and add the gateway ip_address
#* add the ip and netmask using "ifconfig" command
#* add the route using "route add default gw <ip_address>"
#* export the proxy using "export http_proxy=<add your proxy link>" command
#: there is a bug and if you make these steps in another order than above, it may be possible not work
# Copy "compliance_test.py" script on DUT
# Make sure that your network connection is working
# Run the script like this:
#* make the script executable: "chmod a+x compliance_local.py"
#* run in command line the following command "./compliance_test.py <milestone> <date>"
#* wait until "Configuration done. LSB script must be started from machine." in command line( about 8-12 hours)
# Run "LSB_test.sh" via ssh or manually and wait for it to finish( about a day)
# Get the logs from DUT:
#* result-<milestone>-data.fulllog
#* result-<milestone>-data.log
#* result-<milestone>-data.fail
#* posix.log (can be found in: /opt/ltp/testcases/open_posix_testsuite)
#*:*  the three others are found in /opt/ltp directory, in output, temp, result folders . The logs need to be sent to [[yi.zhao@windriver.com]] specifying the version and the type of image
#* in /var/opt/lsb/test/manager/results/x86.../x86....tar.gz (you can find it with auto-complete(tab) easily)
#*:* it has like 18 Mb
#*:*  upload this file on drive and send the link to [[hongxu.jia@windriver.com]] and [[mark.hatle@windriver.com]]
#*:*  also I'll fwd an email to see how it looks
# Put the tests from Testopia - Runtime test run on passed
The scripts can be found here: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky-contrib/log/?h=cagurida/compliance
== pTest ==
Ptest (package test) is a concept for building, installing and running the test suites that the packages include for and by themselves, while producing a consistent test execution output format. More details on enabling and installing pTest are available on [[Ptest]].
Install an run steps:
#Download pTest image from autobuilder( you can find core-image-sato-sdk image in pTest directory)
#Install the image on DUT (using legacy boot)
# Boot the image and copy "ptest-runner.sh" script on DUT
# In command line run "ptest-runner.sh > ptest.log" and wait for it to finish ( about 5 hours)
== Eclipse Testing Framework ==
Eclipse Testing Framework uses [https://fedorahosted.org/dogtail/ Dogtail] for test automation. Refer to  eclipse-framework [http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky-contrib/tree/examples/README?h=vhangan/eclipse-framework&id=dce7364ba85c12683234dc4841830d4ce23a488c README] on contrib for installation and framework details.
[https://fedorahosted.org/dogtail/ Dogtail] is a GUI test tool and automation framework written in Python. It uses Accessibility (a11y) technologies to communicate with desktop applications. dogtail scripts are written in Python and executed like any other Python program.
== Build Performance test ==
The performance of the build system is tracked, with regards to time spent on passing through a build process, in multiple, commonly used, configurations.
: The tool used: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/scripts/contrib/build-perf-test.sh
: For more details, refer to [[Performance Test]] wiki.
: Currently, build performance results can be viewed here as chart view (starting YP 1.6) [https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/charts/perf_milestone/performance_test.html here]
== Automatic testing of incoming patches ==
[TBD] - Not covered yet
= Test Cycle =
* Execution according to [[Yocto 2.2 Schedule]]. The first section of the table, "Build Type", details what type of tests are performed on Weekly, Release Candidate or Release test.
