Miscelleneous Packages required to be installed for OpenBmc Automation. Install the packages and it's dependencies via pip
REST base packages:
$ pip install -U requests $ pip install -U robotframework-requests
SSH and SCP base packages: For more detailed installation instructions see robotframework-sshlibrary
$ pip install robotframework-sshlibrary $ pip install robotframework-scplibrary
To verify the installation setup is completed and ready to execute.
$ git clone https://github.com/openbmc/openbmc-test-automation $ cd openbmc-test-automation
$ robot -v OPENBMC_HOST:xx.xx.xx.xx templates/test_openbmc_setup.robotwhere xx.xx.xx.xx is the BMC hostname or IP.
There are several sub-directories within the openbmc-test-automation base which contain test suites, tools, templates, etc. These sub-directories are classified as follows:
tests/
: Contains the general test cases for OpenBMC stack functional verification.
extended/
: Contains test cases for boot testing, network testing, code update, RAS (Reliability, availability and serviceability) testing, etc.
systest/
: Contains test cases for HTX bootme.
xcat/
: Contains test cases for XCAT automation.
tools/
: Contains various tools.
templates/
: Contains sample code examples and setup testing. `
To run openbmc-automation first you need to install the prerequisite Python packages which will help to invoke tests through tox (Note that tox version 2.3.1 or greater is required) or via Robot CLI command.
Robot Command Line
tests/
:$ robot -v OPENBMC_HOST:xx.xx.xx.xx tests
$ robot -v OPENBMC_HOST:xx.xx.xx.xx tests/test_basic_poweron.robot
Tox Command Line
Install the python dependencies for tox
$ easy_install tox
$ easy_install pip
Initialize the following environment variable which will be used during testing
$ export OPENBMC_HOST=<openbmc machine ip address> $ export OPENBMC_PASSWORD=<openbmc password> $ export OPENBMC_USERNAME=<openbmc username> $ export OPENBMC_MODEL=[./data/Barreleye.py, ./data/Palmetto.py, etc] $ export IPMI_COMMAND=<Dbus/External> $ export IPMI_PASSWORD=<External IPMI password>
Use following parameters for PDU: $ export PDU_IP=<PDU IP address> $ export PDU_USERNAME=<PDU username> $ export PDU_PASSWORD=<PDU password> $ export PDU_TYPE=<PDU type> $ export PDU_SLOT_NO=<SLOT number> for PDU_TYPE we support only synaccess at the moment Use the following variables for Qemu test run ========================================================== $ export SSH_PORT=<ssh port number> $ export HTTPS_PORT=<https port number> Use the following variables for BIOS update testing ========================================================== $ export PNOR_IMAGE_PATH=<path to>/<machine>.pnor
Run tests
$ tox -e tests
How to test individual test
One specific test $ tox -e default -- -t '"DIMM0 no fault"' tests/test_sensors.robot No preset environment variables, default configuration for all supported systems. $ OPENBMC_HOST=x.x.x.x tox -e default -- tests No preset environment variables, one test case from one test suite $ OPENBMC_HOST=x.x.x.x tox -e barreleye -- -t '"DIMM0 no fault"' tests/test_sensors.robot No preset environment variables, one test suite for a palmetto system $ OPENBMC_HOST=x.x.x.x tox -e palmetto -- tests/test_sensors.robot No preset environment variables, the entire test suite for a barreleye system $ OPENBMC_HOST=x.x.x.x tox -e barreleye -- tests Default CI test bucket list: No preset environment variables, the entire test suite excluding test cases using argument file. $ OPENBMC_HOST=x.x.x.x tox -e barreleye -- --argumentfile test_lists/skip_test tests Exclude test list for supported systems: Barrleye: test_lists/skip_test_barreleye Palmetto: test_lists/skip_test_palmetto Witherspoon: test_lists/skip_test_witherspoon
It can also be run by passing variables from the cli...
Run one test suite using using pybot $ pybot -v OPENBMC_HOST:<ip> -v OPENBMC_USERNAME:root -v OPENBMC_PASSWORD:0penBmc -v OPENBMC_MODEL:<model path> tests/test_time.robot Run entire test suite using using pybot $ pybot -v OPENBMC_HOST:<ip> -v OPENBMC_USERNAME:root -v OPENBMC_PASSWORD:0penBmc -v OPENBMC_MODEL:<model path> tests Run entire test suite using external ipmitool $ pybot -v OPENBMC_HOST:<ip> -v OPENBMC_USERNAME:root -v OPENBMC_PASSWORD:0penBmc -v IPMI_COMMAND:External -v IPMI_PASSWORD:PASSW0RD -v OPENBMC_MODEL:<model path> tests
Run extended tests
Set the preset environment variables, run test suite for a barreleye system $ OPENBMC_HOST=x.x.x.x tox -e barreleye -- extended/test_power_restore.robot Similarly for Network, PDU and update BIOS For BMC code update, download the system type *.all.tar image from https://openpower.xyz and run as follows: For Barreleye system python -m robot -v OPENBMC_HOST:x.x.x.x -v FILE_PATH:downloaded_path/barreleye-xxxx.all.tar extended/code_update/update_bmc.robot For loop test (Default iteration is 10) python -m robot -v OPENBMC_HOST:x.x.x.x -v OPENBMC_SYSTEMMODEL:xxxxxx -v ITERATION:n -v LOOP_TEST_COMMAND:xxxxxx extended/full_suite_regression.robot Below is sample command using tox to test only fw version using Barreleye system for 5 times OPENBMC_HOST=x.x.x.x LOOP_TEST_COMMAND="--argumentfile test_lists/skip_test tests/test_fw_version.robot" ITERATION=5 OPENBMC_SYSTEMMODEL=barreleye tox -e barreleye -- ./extended/full_suite_regression.robot
Jenkins jobs tox commands
HW CI tox command Set the preset environment variables, run HW CI test for a barreleye system $ OPENBMC_HOST=x.x.x.x tox -e barreleye -- --argumentfile test_lists/HW_CI tests
Template to be used to create new stand-alone python programs.
If you wish to create a new python stand-alone program, please copy bin/python_pgm_template to your new name and then begin your work. Example: cd bin cp python_pgm_template my_new_program This template has much of your preliminary work done for you and it will help us all follow a similar structure. Features: - Help text and argparsing started for you. - Support for "stock" parameters like quiet, debug, test_mode. - exit_function and signal_handler defined. - validate_parms function pre-created. - main function follows conventional startup: if not gen_get_options(parser, stock_list): return False if not validate_parms(): return False qprint_pgm_header() # Your code here.
