To do so, a few dependencies have been imported: * external/bsd/lutok * external/mit/lua * external/public-domain/sqlite * external/public-domain/xz The Kyua framework is the new generation of ATF (Automated Test Framework), it is composed of: * external/bsd/atf * external/bsd/kyua-atf-compat * external/bsd/kyua-cli * external/bsd/kyua-tester * tests Kyua/ATF being written in C++, it depends on libstdc++ which is provided by GCC. As this is not part of the sources, Kyua is only compiled when the native GCC utils are installed. To install Kyua do the following: * In a cross-build enviromnent, add the following to the build.sh commandline: -V MKBINUTILS=yes -V MKGCCCMDS=yes WARNING: At this point the import is still experimental, and not supported on native builds (a.k.a make build).

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
A test suite is a collection of test programs and is represented by a
|
|
hierarchical layout of test binaries on the file system. Any subtree of
|
|
the file system can represent a test suite, provided that it includes one
|
|
or more
|
|
.Nm Ns s ,
|
|
which are the test suite definition files.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
A
|
|
.Nm
|
|
is a Lua script whose purpose is to describe the structure of the test
|
|
suite it belongs to. To do so, the script has access to a collection of
|
|
special functions provided by
|
|
.Xr kyua 1 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
A typical
|
|
.Nm
|
|
will look similar to this:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
syntax(2)
|
|
|
|
test_suite('first')
|
|
|
|
-- Declare the test programs that are in this directory.
|
|
atf_test_program{name='foo_test'}
|
|
atf_test_program{name='bar_test', test_suite='second'}
|
|
plain_test_program{name='legacy_test'}
|
|
plain_test_program{name='legacy2_test', allowed_architectures='amd64 i386',
|
|
required_files='/bin/ls', timeout=30}
|
|
|
|
-- Recurse into any subdirectories that may have other tests.
|
|
include('dir1/Kyuafile')
|
|
include('dir2/Kyuafile')
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Ss File versioning
|
|
Every
|
|
.Nm
|
|
file starts with a call to
|
|
.Fn syntax "int version" .
|
|
This call determines the specific schema used by the file so that future
|
|
backwards-incompatible modifications to the file can be introduced.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Any new
|
|
.Nm
|
|
file should set
|
|
.Fa version
|
|
to
|
|
.Sq 2 .
|
|
.Ss Test suite definition
|
|
Every
|
|
.Nm
|
|
should define the name of the test suite it belongs to by calling the
|
|
.Fn test_suite
|
|
function at the very beginning.
|
|
Individual test programs can override this value in their definition, but
|
|
the most common style is to list a single test suite name for the whole
|
|
file.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The purpose of the test suite name definition is to tell
|
|
.Xr kyua 1
|
|
scoping for the run-time configuration variables that these programs
|
|
accept.
|
|
.Ss Test program registration
|
|
A
|
|
.Nm
|
|
can register test programs by means of a variety of
|
|
.Fn *_test_program
|
|
functions, all of which take the name of a test program and a set of
|
|
optional metadata properties that describe such test program.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The test programs to be registered must live in the current directory; in
|
|
other words, the various
|
|
.Fn *_test_program
|
|
calls cannot reference test programs in other directories.
|
|
The rationale for this is to force all
|
|
.Nm
|
|
files to be self-contained, and to simplify their internal representation.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
ATF-based test programs (those that implement the
|
|
.Xr kyua-atf-interface 7
|
|
interface) can be registered with the
|
|
.Fn atf_test_program
|
|
table constructor. This function takes the
|
|
.Fa name
|
|
of the test program, an optional
|
|
.Fa test_suite
|
|
name that overrides the global test suite name and a collection of optional
|
|
metadata settings for all the test cases in the test program. Any metadata
|
|
properties defined by the test cases themselves override the metadata values
|
|
defined here.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Plain test programs (those that implement the
|
|
.Xr kyua-plain-interface 7
|
|
interface) can be registered with the
|
|
.Fn plain_test_program
|
|
table constructor. This function takes the
|
|
.Fa name
|
|
of the test program an optional
|
|
.Fa test_suite
|
|
name that overrides the global test suite name and a collection of optional
|
|
metadata settings for the test program.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Please see
|
|
.Xr kyua-tester-list 5
|
|
for the list of metadata properties that can be given to test programs.
|
|
All the properties that can be given to a test case can also be given to a test
|
|
program.
|
|
.Ss Recursion
|
|
To reference test programs in another subdirectory, a different
|
|
.Nm
|
|
must be created in that directory and it must be included into the original
|
|
.Nm
|
|
by means of the
|
|
.Fn include
|
|
function.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Note that each file is processed in its own Lua environment: there is no
|
|
mechanism to pass state from one file to the other. The reason for this is
|
|
that there is no such thing as a
|
|
.Dq top-level
|
|
.Nm
|
|
in a test suite: the user has to be able to run the test suite from any
|
|
directory in a given hierarchy, and this execution must not depend on files
|
|
that live in parent directories.
|
|
.Ss Top-level Kyuafile
|
|
Every system has a top directory into which test suites get installed. The
|
|
default is
|
|
.Pa __TESTSDIR__ .
|
|
Within this directory live test suites, each of which is in an independent
|
|
subdirectory. Each subdirectory can be provided separately by independent
|
|
third-party packages.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Kyua allows running all the installed test suites at once in order to
|
|
provide comprehensive cross-component reports. In order to do this, there
|
|
is a special file in the top directory that knows how to inspect the
|
|
subdirectories in search for other Kyuafiles and include them.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Sx FILES
|
|
section includes more details on where this file lives.
