Description
A full cross-architecture build and platform conversion in one command.
Setup
Clone the BoxGrinder test appliances into a convenient location using command git clone https://github.com/msavy/boxgrinder-appliances.git
How to test
This is Test Case is only applicable for users on x86_64 architectures
A 32 bit VM is not capable of building 64 bit images in BoxGrinder. Check with
A 32 bit VM is not capable of building 64 bit images in BoxGrinder. Check with
uname -i. If you are on a 32 bit VM or machine, skip this Test Case!
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.
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.
- Navigate to directory
boxgrinder-appliances/testing-appliances/jeos-appls/ - Execute
setarch i386 boxgrinder-build fedora-15-jeos.appl -p virtualbox
. You may want to use another format, such as vmware or EC2, see: http://boxgrinder.org/tutorials/boxgrinder-build-plugins/#Platform_plugins - Run the produced vdi file in your favourite virtualization application:
build/appliances/i686/fedora/15/f15-jeos/virtualbox-plugin/f15-jeos.vdi - Log in with user:
rootpassword:boxgrinder - Executing
uname -ishould indicate i386 (32 bit) - 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.
- Step #2 completes without error (indicated on console)
- Program completes with exit code 0
- Successfully boot and log into the VirtualBox appliance without error
- Image has the expected architecture (i386/i686)
- QA:Network_basic_test_case is performed successfully on the new appliance
