Chicken scheme and a number of "eggs" are required for building
Megatest. See the script installall.sch in the utils directory of the

distribution for a mostly automated way to install everything needed





for building Megatest on Linux.

Getting Started

---------------

[partintro]
.Getting started with Megatest
--
Creating a testsuite or flow and your first test or task.
--

After installing Megatest you can create a flow or testsuite and add some

tests using the helpers. Here is a quickstart sequence to get you up and
running your first automated testsuite.

Creating a Megatest Area
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Choose Target Keys
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

First choose your "target" keys. These are used to organise your runs in a
way that is meaningful to your project. If you are unsure about what to use
for keys just use a single generic key such as "RUNTYPE". These keys will be
used to hand values to your tests via environment variables so ensure they
are unique. Prefixing them with something such as PROJKEYS_ is a good
strategy. 


Examples of keys:



















.Example keys
[width="60%",options="header"]

|==============================================







Create Area Config Files
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

You will need to choose locations for your runs (the data generated every
time you run the testsuite) and link tree. For getting started answer the
prompts with "runs" and "links". We use the Unix editor "vi" in the examples
below but you can use any plain text editor.

.Using the helper to create a Megatest area
------------------
megatest -create-megatest-area


# optional: verify that the settings are ok


vi megatest.config



vi runconfigs.config
------------------

Creating a Test
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Choose the test name for your first test and run the helper. You can edit
the files after the initial creation. You will need to enter names and
scripts for the steps to be run and then edit the
tests/<testname>/testconfig file and modify the logpro rules to properly
process the log output from your steps. For your first test just hit enter
for the "waiton", "priority" and iteration variable prompts.

Hint: for geting started make your logpro rules very liberal. expect:error
patterns should match nothing and comment out expect:required rules.

.Using the helper to create a Megatest test
---------------
megatest -create-test myfirsttest

# then edit the generated config
vi tests/myfirsttest/testconfig
---------------

Running your test
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

First choose a target and runname. If you have a two-place target such as
RELEASE/ITERATION a target would look like v1.0/aff3 where v1.0 is the
RELEASE and aff3 is the ITERATION. For a run name just use something like
run1. 

.Running all tests (testpatt of "%" matches all tests)
---------------
megatest -run -target v1.0/aff3 -runname run1 -testpatt % -log run1.log
---------------

Viewing the results
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Start the dashboard and browse your run in the "Runs" tab.

.Starting dashboard
----------------
dashboard -rows 24

How To Do Things
================


Process Runs
------------


Remove Runs
~~~~~~~~~~~


From the dashboard click on the button (PASS/FAIL...) for one of the tests. From the test control panel that 
comes up push the clean test button. The command field will be prefilled with a template command for removing 
that test. You can edit the command, for example change the argument to -testpatt to "%" to remove all tests.

.Remove the test diskperf and all it's items
----------------
megatest -remove-runs -target ubuntu/nfs/none -runname ww28.1a -testpatt diskperf/% -v
----------------

.Remove all tests for all runs and all targets
----------------
megatest -remove-runs -target %/%/% -runname % -testpatt % -v
----------------

Archive Runs
~~~~~~~~~~~~


Megatest supports using the bup backup tool (https://bup.github.io/) to archive your tests for efficient storage
and retrieval. Archived data can be rapidly retrieved if needed. The metadata for the run (PASS/FAIL status, run 
durations, time stamps etc.) are all preserved in the megatest database.

For setup information see the Archiving topic in the reference section of this manual.

To Archive
^^^^^^^^^^


Hint: use the test control panel to create a template command by pushing the "Archive Tests" button.

.Archive a full run
----------------
megatest -target ubuntu/nfs/none -runname ww28.1a -archive save-remove -testpatt %
----------------

To Restore
^^^^^^^^^^


.Retrieve a single test
----------------
megatest -target ubuntu/nfs/none -runname ww28.1a -archive restore -testpatt diskperf/%
----------------

Hint: You can browse the archive using bup commands directly.

======


This section is a compendium of a various useful tricks for debugging,
configuring and generally getting the most out of Megatest.

Limiting your running jobs
--------------------------


The following example will limit a test in the jobgroup "group1" to no more than 10 tests simultaneously.

In your testconfig:

----------------
[test_meta]
jobgroup group1
----------------

In your megatest.config:

---------------
[jobgroups]
group1 10
custdes 4

Installation
------------

Dependencies
~~~~~~~~~~~~

Chicken scheme and a number of "eggs" are required for building
Megatest. See the script installall.sh in the utils directory of the
source distribution for an automated way to install everything
needed for building Megatest on Linux.

Modified docs/manual/megatest_manual.html from [360970d205] to [2d6199dc08].

<div class="paragraph"><p>All data to specify the tests and configure the system is stored in
plain text files. All system state is stored in an sqlite3

<div class="olist arabic"><ol class="arabic">
<li>
<p>
Reduce load on the file system. Sqlite3 files on network filesystem can be
  a burden.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Reduce number of servers and frequency of start/stop. This is mostly an
  issue of clutter but also a reduction in "moving parts".
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Coalesce activities to a single home host where possible. Give the user
  feedback that they have started the dashboard on a host other than the
  home host.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Reduce number of processes involved in managing running tests.

<li>
<p>
ACID compliant db will be on /tmp and synced to megatest.db with a five
  second max delay.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Read/writes to db for processes on homehost will go direct to /tmp
  megatest.db file.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Read/wites fron non-homehost processes will go through one server. Bulk
  reads (e.g. for dashboard or list-runs) will be cached on the current host
  in /tmp and synced from the home megatest.db in the testsuite area.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Db syncs rely on the target db file timestame minus some margin.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Since bulk reads do not use the server we can switch to simple RPC for the
  network transport.

This book is organised as three sub-books; getting started, writing tests and reference.

Why Megatest?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~


The Megatest project was started for two reasons, the first was an
immediate and pressing need for a generalized tool to manage a suite
of regression tests and the second was the fact that the author had
written or maintained several such tools at different companies over
the years and it seemed a good thing to have a single open source
tool, flexible enough to meet the needs of any team doing continuous
integrating and or running a complex suite of tests for release
qualification.

Megatest Design Philosophy
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Megatest is intended to provide the minimum needed resources to make
writing a suite of tests and tasks for implementing continuous build
for software, design engineering or process control (via owlfs for
example) without being specialized for any specific problem
space. Megatest in of itself does not know what constitutes a PASS or
FAIL of a test or task. In most cases megatest is best used in

 * Encapsulated - the tests run in self-contained directories and all inputs
   and outputs to the process can be found in the run areas.

 * Deployable - anyone on the team, at any site, at any time can run the flow

Megatest Architecture
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


All data to specify the tests and configure the system is stored in
plain text files. All system state is stored in an sqlite3
database. Tests are launched using the launching system available for
the distributed compute platform in use. A template script is provided
which can launch jobs on local and remote Linux hosts. Currently
megatest uses the network filesystem to call home to your master
sqlite3 database.

launcher bsub
# if defined and not "no" flexi-launcher will bypass launcher unless 
# there is no host-type match.
flexi-launcher yes
------------------------

host-types
^^^^^^^^^^


List of host types and the commandline to run a job on that host type.

.host-type => launch command
------------
general nbfake
------------

launchers

^^^^^^^^^
.test/itempath => host-type
------------
runfirst/sum% remote
------------

Miscellaneous Setup Items
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Attempt to rerun tests in "STUCK/DEAD", "n/a", "ZERO_ITEMS" states.

.In megatest.config
------------------
[setup]
reruns 5
------------------

Run time limit
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^


-----------------
[setup]
# this will automatically kill the test if it runs for more than 1h 2m and 3s
runtimelim 1h 2m 3s
-----------------

Tests browser view
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^


The tests browser (see the Run Control tab on the dashboard) has two views for displaying the tests. 

. Dot (graphviz) based tree
. No dot, plain listing

The default is the graphviz based tree but if your tests don't view
well in that mode then use "nodot" to turn it off.

Writing Tests
-------------
// =============

Creating a new Test
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

//-------------------

The following steps will add a test "yourtestname" to your testsuite. This assumes
starting from a directory where you already have a megatest.config and
runconfigs.config.

. Create a directory tests/yourtestname
. Create a file tests/yourtestname/testconfig

Road Map
--------

Note 1: This road-map is still evolving and subject to change without notice.

Architecture Refactor
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Goals
^^^^^

. Reduce load on the file system. Sqlite3 files on network filesystem can be
  a burden.
. Reduce number of servers and frequency of start/stop. This is mostly an
  issue of clutter but also a reduction in "moving parts".
. Coalesce activities to a single home host where possible. Give the user
  feedback that they have started the dashboard on a host other than the
  home host.
. Reduce number of processes involved in managing running tests.

Changes Needed
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

. ACID compliant db will be on /tmp and synced to megatest.db with a five
  second max delay.
. Read/writes to db for processes on homehost will go direct to /tmp
  megatest.db file.
. Read/wites fron non-homehost processes will go through one server. Bulk
  reads (e.g. for dashboard or list-runs) will be cached on the current host
  in /tmp and synced from the home megatest.db in the testsuite area.
. Db syncs rely on the target db file timestame minus some margin.
. Since bulk reads do not use the server we can switch to simple RPC for the
  network transport.
. Test running manager process extended to manage multiple running tests.

Current Items

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

ww05 - migrate to inmem-db

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

. Switch to inmem db with fast sync to on disk db's [DONE]
. Server polls tasks table for next action
.. Task table used for tracking runner process [DONE]
.. Task table used for jobs to run
.. Task table used for queueing runner actions (remove runs, cleanRunExecute, etc)
