Setting Up CORD Tester Environment

Configure Automation Framework

• Tests can be run directly from your local machine or from a different VM by exporting the configuration file for the target CORD servers.

• Download the cord-tester repo using the following command:

  git clone https://gerrit.opencord.org/cord-tester
  

• Before executing any tests, proper modules need to be installed which can be done using the following command:

  cd cord-tester/src/test/setup
  sudo ./prerequisites.sh --cord
  

Executing Tests

Most of the tests in cord-tester framework are written in python and RobotFramework. Few examples for test execution are shown below

• Export the configuration file(file that was generated during kubernetes/helm installation)

  export KUBECONFIG=/home/cord/cord-pod1.conf
  

  Assuming that cord-pod1.conf file is present in /home/cord directory

• Executing a sample test

  cd cord-tester/src/test/robot/
  pybot SanityK8POD.robot
  

Executing Control Plane Tests

• Each control plane test uses input data in json format which are present under cord-tester/src/test/cord-api/Tests/data

• Before running control plane tests, a properties file need to be edited as shown below. Update the following attributes accordingly

  $ cd cord-tester/src/test/cord-api/Properties
  $ cat RestApiProperties.py
  
  SERVER_IP = 'localhost'
  SERVER_PORT = '30006'
  USER = 'admin@opencord.org'
  PASSWD = ''
  

• To run tests

  cd cord-tester/src/test/cord-api/Tests/
  pybot <testcase.txt>
