Features¶

Test Coverage¶

As a tester I want to document the test coverage, so that it can be easily tracked which user stories are covered by which test case and vice-versa.

filter¶

repo¶

Filtering based on fmf identifiers

As a tester I want to filter based on reference identifiers, so that I can learn where the tests are implemented/maintained.

Note

This is a draft, the story is not implemented yet.

There should be an easy way to filter based on fmf identifiers.

Examples:

tmt story ls --filter "url:https://gitlab/project"
tmt story ls --filter "url:https://gitlab/project & ref:master name:/tests/smoke"

Status: idea

tags¶

Filtering based on test tags

As a tester I want to filter user stories based on the referenced tests tags, so that I can see what coverage the stories have.

There should be an easy way to filter based on tests tags.

Examples:

tmt story ls --filter "tag:fast"

Status: implemented

reference¶

Referencing remote repositories

As a tester I want to reference not only local objects, so that user stories can be covered by test cases from a different repository.

Note

This is a draft, the story is not implemented yet.

It is possible to use a full fmf identifier in the link attribute.

Examples:

verified-by:
    url: https://github.com/psss/fmf
    ref: master
    name: /tests/basic/repo

Status: idea

relevancy¶

Story relevancy

As a product owner I want to connect user stories with products or versions, so that I can filter out items relevant (or not relevant) for a particular product.

Note

This is a draft, the story is not implemented yet.

Relevancy is an easy way to bind stories to particular product(s). The same relevancy rules as for tests should be also used for stories.

Examples:

story:
    As an admin I want product A doing B, so that I can
    use it for C.
adjust:
  - enabled: False
    when: distro < fedora-28

Status: idea

Reboot during test¶

As a tester I need to reboot the guest during a test and then resume the test execution.

Some tests may require a reboot as a part of them, e.g. upgrading the system, rebooting and then running some checks.

The functionality is compatible with how restraint works, hence rhts-reboot, rstrnt-reboot or tmt-reboot can be used to start the reboot. The REBOOT_COUNT environment variable is used to pass the test information about the number of reboots done.

Note that this only works with the internal tmt executor and works with guests provisioned by tmt (e.g. container or virtual) and doesn’t work with the local provision. Support of connect provision is on a best effort basis and will not work on machines where reboot command is not available.

Examples:

if [ -z "$REBOOT_COUNT" ] || [ "$REBOOT_COUNT" -eq 0 ]; then
    rlRun "echo 'Before the reboot'"
    rlRun "rhts-reboot" 0 "Reboot the machine"
elif [ "$REBOOT_COUNT" -eq 1 ]; then
    rlRun "echo 'After the reboot'"
fi

Status: implemented and verified

Package Preparation¶

Preparing packages for testing

As a user, I want a flexible and comfortable way to prepare packages on the guest for testing.

all¶

Install all packages from a given source

As a developer I would like to install all packages from a given source.

Note

This is a draft, the story is not implemented yet.

In case of execution from CI, I want all packages from a given Koji build to be installed, even if they have same or lower NVR. In case of COPR repository, I want all packages from a given repository to be installed, in the latest version available in the given repository. In case of already existing repository, I want to install all packages from the given repository.

I don’t have conflicting subpackages in my repository, or I’m excluding packages explicitly to solve those conflicts. All installation conflicts abort the installation and fail the run. If no packages are found the install fails as well. In case of CI, I want to be able override default behaviour, and install all packages instead.

Examples:

/plan/install-all-copr:
    prepare:
    - how: install-all
      copr: psss/tmt

/plan/install-all-repository:
    prepare:
    - how: install-all
      repository: my-enabled-repo

/plan/install-all-ci:
    prepare:
    - how: install-all

tmt run -a prepare -h install-all -D my_packages/

Status: idea

minimal¶

Install a minimal set of freshly built required packages

As a developer who has just built fresh rpms in given local directory I want to prepare on the guest only the minimal set of required packages.

Note

This is a draft, the story is not implemented yet.

After building new rpm packages locally there should be an easy way to install on the guest only those packages which are actually required by tests or are explicitly requested in the prepare step.

Examples:

make rpm
tmt run test --name smoke \
    prepare --how install --directory fresh/rpms

Status: idea

repository¶

Add artifact repository for installation

As a CI system I want to be able to add a repository with high priority from which all subsequent packages will be installed, updated, downgraded or reinstalled.

Note

This is a draft, the story is not implemented yet.

In case of Fedora CI we want the packages to be from the artifact repository which the CI system provides. Due to support of dist-git pull requests we need to support cases when the artifact repository contains packages with lower or the same version, which is quite common in case of scratch builds.

Examples:

tmt run -a prepare --how repository --order 1 \
    --base-url file:///repository --priority 999 \
    plan --name some-plan

Status: idea

required¶

Install a minimal set of required packages

As a tester who uses VM or container with relevant repositories enabled and whose packages are not part of the default installation I want to prepare the guest with the minimal set of required packages.

Note

This is a draft, the story is not implemented yet.

Only packages which are actually required by tests or are explicitly requested in the prepare step are installed. This allows to test the installation itself and also verify functionality without hidden requires.

Examples:

tmt run plan --name install/dependencies

Status: idea

selected¶

Install specific packages

As a developer I would like to install certain packages required for testing.

Note

This is a draft, the story is not implemented yet.

In case of execution from CI I want these packages to be installed from a given Koji build, even if they have same or lower NVR. I have conflicting subpackages in my package. The specification for local execution and CI should be the same.

Examples:

/plan/curl:
    prepare:
    - how: install
      package: curl

/plan/curl-minimal:
    prepare:
    - how: install
      package: curl-minimal

Status: idea
