Tempest Integration of Tungsten Fabric (Contrail)

This directory contains Tempest tests to cover the contrail project, as well as a plugin to automatically load these tests into tempest. This is a set of integration tests to be run against a live open-contrail cluster. Tempest has testcases for Contrail API validation, scenarios, and other specific tests useful in validating an open-contrail deployment.

See the tempest plugin docs for information on using it: http://docs.openstack.org/developer/tempest/plugin.html#using-plugins

See the tempest docs for information on writing new tests etc: http://docs.openstack.org/developer/tempest/

Quickstart

To run tungstent-tempest, you must first have Tempest_ installed and configured properly. Please reference Tempest's Quickstart_ guide to do so and for all exact details. Follow all the steps outlined therein.

Here are some sample steps:

$ git clone https://git.openstack.org/openstack/tempest $ cd tempest $ pip install -r requirements.txt $ pip install -r test-requirements.txt $ pip install tox $ pip install tempest

Now below command should show you list of avaiable tempest test cases.

$ ostestr -l

You can install all these including tempest in a virtual environment. If virtual environment is not installed, then install it using "sud apt-get install python-virtualenv". Afterward, proceed with the steps below.

#. Second, you need to install Patrole. This is done with pip after you check out the Patrole repo. Please reference Patrole''s Quickstart guide for further details.

Here are some sample steps:

$ git clone https://git.openstack.org/openstack/patrole
$ cd patrole
$ pip install -e .

This can be done within a venv.

Now below command should show you list of avaiable Patrole test cases.

$ ostestr -l | grep patrole

#. Then you need to install tungsten-tempest. This is done with pip after you check out the tungsten-tempest repo::

$ git clone https://git.openstack.org/tungsten/tungsten-tempest $ pip install -e tungsten_tempest/

This can be done within a venv.

Now below command should show you list of avaiable tungsten-tempest test cases.

$ ostestr -l | grep tungsten

#. Next you must properly configure tempest, which is relatively straightforward. For details on configuring tempest refer to the :ref:tempest-configuration.

#. Next you must properly configure Patrole, which is relatively straightforward. For details on configuring Patrole refer to the :ref:patrole-configuration.

#. Next you must properly configure tungsten-fabric, which is relatively straightforward. For details on configuring tungsten-fabirc refer to the :ref:tungsten-configuration.

After comfiguring tempmest.conf as per tempest and Patrole requirements, please
make below changes too in the patrole section of tempest.conf

enable_rbac must be true.
test_custom_requirements must be true if you want to run tests against a
``custom_requirements_file`` which defines RBAC requirements.
custom_requirements_file must be absolute path of file path of the YAML
file that defines your RBAC requirements.

For the details about these flags please refer ``patrole.conf.sample``_ file.

#. Make sure you have contrail endpoints in keystone catalog-list already like sdn-l-config-*. Otherwise configure below two keys under [sdn] section of tempest.conf.

 [sdn]
 endpoint_type = <public|admin|internal|publicURL|adminURL|internalURL>
 catalog_type = <Catalog type of the SDN service, default sdn-l-config>

#. Once the configuration is done you're now ready to run tungsten-fabric. This can be done using the tempest_run_ command. This can be done by running::

 $ tempest run --regex '^tungsten_tempest_plugin\.tests\.api'

There is also the option to use testr directly, or any testr_ based test runner, like ostestr_. For example, from the workspace dir run::

 $ stestr --regex '(?!.*\[.*\bslow\b.*\])(^tungsten_tempest_plugin\.tests\.api))'

will run the same set of tests as the default gate jobs.

You can also run tungsten_tempest tests using tox_. To do so, cd into the Tempest directory and run::

 $ tox -eall-plugin -- tungstent_tempest_plugin.tests.api

#. Log information from tests is captured in tempest.log under the Tempest repository. Some Patrole debugging information is captured in that log related to expected test results and :ref:role-overriding.

More detailed RBAC testing log output is emitted to tungsten_log. To configure Patrole's logging, see the :ref:tungsten-tempest-configuration guide.

RBAC Tests

To change the role that the tungsten_tempest tests are being run as, edit rbac_test_role in the patrole section of tempest.conf: ::

[patrole]
rbac_test_role = member
...

.. note::

The rbac_test_role is service-specific. member, for example, is an arbitrary role, but by convention is used to designate the default non-admin role in the system. Most tunsgtent_tempest tests should be run with admin and member roles. However, other services may use entirely different roles.

For more information about the member role and its nomenclature, please see: <https://ask.openstack.org/en/question/4759/member-vs-_member_/>__.
