Description
This test case checks whether sosreport cooperates with ABRT correctly.
How to test
- Ensure the
sos
package is installed with the commandsu -c 'yum install sos'
- Edit the config file
/etc/abrt/abrt_event.conf
, and comment out lines- #EVENT=post-create
- nice sosreport --tmp-dir "$DUMP_DIR" --batch \
- [...]
- Restart the abrtd service:
su -c 'systemctl restart abrtd.service'
- Crash a running application, with the command
pkill -SIGSEGV (appname)
- Wait for a crash notification to appear: it might take some time (~20 s) before the icon appears, as it waits for sosreport to finish
Expected Results
- Verify that the file
sosreport.tar.xz
exists in directory/var/cache/abrt/<the_crash_directory>
and has some reasonable content - The tarball should contain config files from /etc, grub.conf, some info from /proc, loaded modules, and much more
