Apply patch

  1. Install the package
    yum install patch.x86_64
  2. Save the patch to some_directory
  3. $ pwd
    /home/username/autoqa
  4. Apply patch
    $ patch -p1 < some_direcotory/patch_name.patch or patch --dry-run --verbose -p1 < some_direcotory/patch_name.patch

Run auto install tests

install the libs of auto install

  1. # pwd
    /home/username/autoqa
  2. # make install
  3. you may see lots of errors,that's because some packages are missing,use yum to install them according to the output

run the tests

DVD install example: 

# PYTHONPATH=../../lib/python/ python dvd_install.py -i /nfs/iso/f14-alpha-rc4/Fedora-14-Alpha-i386-DVD.iso -k /var/www/html/ks.cfg

Known issues

  1. The XVfb display does not work,because we got some conflicts
  2. If the host is F13, need to log in as root and Enable "assistive technologies",System->Preferences->Assistive Technologies, check "Enable assistive technologies", then run the test as root
  3. The dvd_install.py and cd_install.py do not support downloading first if the given media is remote http address.mediakit_sanity.py supports this
  4. If the testing can not get logs, you may have to modify the autoqa/lib/python/anaconda.py line:"wget -O /bin/minimon http://10.66.65.170/minimon" to where guest can access minimon file
  5. If have too many windows open,the dogtail may can not focus on virt - viewer to pass args

Options of test drivers

Use --help to show options of test drivers. 

Usage: dvd_install.py [options]

Options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -a ARCH, --arch=ARCH  target architecture (x86_64)
  -k KSFILE, --ksfile=KSFILE
                        kickstart file for installation
  -i IMAGE, --image=IMAGE
                        Official DVD install image,e.g: Fedora-12-i386-DVD.iso
  -n VMNAME, --name=VMNAME
                        The name of virtual machine for test,if not specified
                        (default: AUTOQA)
  -d DISPLAY, --display=DISPLAY
                        Use an alternate DISPLAY (default: none)
  -x EXTRA_ARGS, --extra-args=EXTRA_ARGS
                        Additional arguments to pass to the kernel

Transport logs

We may use Virtio instead of TCP/IP(Minimon) to transport logs between host and guest soon.Follow Remote logging via virtio to test Log transportation via virtio logging. Issues of virtio logging,please see bug: RHBZ #576439

Auto install document

The introduction of auto install, roadmap, test plan etc...Please see :
