This page details installing and configuring an AutoQA server. AutoQA is currently packaged for Fedora and EPEL, but due to library dependencies, the package is not yet available in official Fedora repositories. The following section describes how to install AutoQA.

Use the Right Repo

Configure the system to receive updates from the the AutoQA package repository. To use the AutoQA package repository, download the appropriate repository file listed below.

updates-testing?
Just like with Fedora, there is an autoqa updates-testing package repository. If you would like to test early releases of autoqa, and related packages, subscribe to the following package repositories:

Install AutoQA

Use the following yum command to install AutoQA and its dependencies:

yum install autoqa
Need autotest-server?
If you are planning to use AutoQA to develop and run tests on a single system, the autoqa package is all you'll need. However, if you want multiple systems scheduling and running tests (see AutoQA architecture), you will want to install the autotest-server package. For more information, see Install and configure autotest.

Configure AutoQA

Almost all configuration files are stored in the /etc/autoqa directory. They are well documented, edit them and adjust the settings to your needs. Available config file:

  • autoqa.conf - main config file
  • repoinfo.conf - package repository configuration (refer to How to update AutoQA repoinfo.conf)
  • fas.conf - config file with FAS credentials, used for services that require FAS authentication (like Bodhi); adjust only if you want to submit results using FAS
  • yourls.conf - config with yourls shortening service credentials and other settings (refer to Install and configure YOURLS for AutoQA); adjust only if you want to enable URL shortening
  • /etc/httpd/conf.d/wsgi.conf - The git-post-receive relies on WSGI. Support for wsgi is provided by mod_wsgi and it must be manually enabled in the provided Apache configuration file.
  • /etc/httpd/conf.d/autoqa.conf - AutoQA's apache configuration file, now used for custom 404 page

Configure Cron

On the server you will want to periodically run AutoQA watchers, which will schedule corresponding tests. We have prepared a cron file for these purposes, you can install it by:

cp /usr/share/autoqa/autoqa.cron /etc/cron.d/

If you think that some watcher should be run more or less frequently (or you want to disable some of them completely), just edit the installed cron file.
