QA:TestCase boxgrinder platform virtualbox

Description

We are converting the JEOS build to the virtualbox platform format.

Setup

Clone the BoxGrinder test appliances into a convenient location using command git clone https://github.com/msavy/boxgrinder-appliances.git

If you are doing this test case using a virtual machine
You should transfer any images produced by BoxGrinder Build for testing onto your real host rather than attempting to execute a VM inside of another VM.

How to test

Ensure your virtualization program supports VDI files
Please ensure your virtualization supports VirtualBox's VDI format, a wide variety do. If not, you can download VirtualBox OSE through your package manager.

1. Navigate to directory boxgrinder-appliances/testing-appliances/jeos-appls/
2. Execute

   boxgrinder-build fedora-15-jeos.appl -p virtualbox

3. Run the produced vdi file in your favourite virtualization application. Remember to replace $basearch in the path with your specific architecture, for instance via uname -i: build/appliances/$basearch/fedora/15/f15-jeos/virtualbox-plugin/f15-jeos.vdi
4. Log in with user: root password: boxgrinder
5. Run the following Test Case in the VM: QA:Network_basic_test_case

Expected Results

The following must be true to consider this a successful test run.

1. Step #2 completes without error (indicated on console)
2. Program completes with exit code 0
3. Successfully boot and log into the VirtualBox appliance without error
4. QA:Network_basic_test_case is performed successfully on the new appliance
