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> </div> </div> <div id="nav"> <div id="home"> <a href="index.html">Home</a> </div> <div id="jumplinks"> <ul> <li> <a href="downloads.html">Download</a> </li> <li> <a href="contribute.html">Contribute</a> </li> <li> <a href="docs.html">Docs</a> </li> </ul> </div> <div id="search"> <form id="simplesearch" action="https://www.google.com/search" enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded" method="get"> <div> <input id="searchsite" name="sitesearch" type="hidden" value="libvirt.org"/> <input id="searchq" name="q" type="text" size="12" value=""/> <input name="submit" type="submit" value="Go"/> </div> </form> <div id="advancedsearch"> <span> <input type="radio" name="what" id="whatwebsite" checked="checked" value="website"/> <label for="whatwebsite">Website</label> </span> <span> <input type="radio" name="what" id="whatwiki" value="wiki"/> <label for="whatwiki">Wiki</label> </span> <span> <input type="radio" name="what" id="whatdevs" value="devs"/> <label for="whatdevs">Developers list</label> </span> <span> <input type="radio" name="what" id="whatusers" value="users"/> <label for="whatusers">Users list</label> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div id="footer"> <div id="contact"> <h3>Contact</h3> <ul> <li> <a href="contact.html#email">email</a> </li> <li> <a href="contact.html#irc">irc</a> </li> </ul> </div> <div id="community"> <h3>Community</h3> <ul> <li> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/libvirt">twitter</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/libvirt">stackoverflow</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://serverfault.com/questions/tagged/libvirt">serverfault</a> </li> </ul> </div> <div id="conduct"> Participants in the libvirt project agree to abide by <a href="governance.html#codeofconduct">the project code of conduct</a></div> <br class="clear"/> </div> </body> </html>
