# Btrfs-progs tests
|
|
|
|
Run the tests from the top directory:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
$ make test
|
|
$ make test-fsck
|
|
$ make test-convert
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
or selectively from the `tests/` directory:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
$ ./fsck-tests.sh
|
|
$ ./misc-tests.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The verbose output of the tests is logged into a file named after the test
|
|
category, eg. `fsck-tests-results.txt`.
|
|
|
|
## Selective testing
|
|
|
|
The test are prefixed by a number for ordering and uniquenes. To run a
|
|
particular test use:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
$ make TEST=MASK test
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
where `MASK` is a glob expression that will execute only tests
|
|
that match the MASK. Here the test number comes handy:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
$ make TEST=001\* test-fsck
|
|
$ TEST=001\* ./fsck-tests.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
will run the first test in fsck-tests subdirectory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Test structure
|
|
|
|
*tests/fsck-tests/:*
|
|
|
|
* tests targeted at bugs that are fixable by fsck
|
|
|
|
*tests/convert-tests/:*
|
|
|
|
* coverage tests of ext2/3/4 and btrfs-convert options
|
|
|
|
*tests/fuzz-tests/:*
|
|
|
|
* collection of fuzzed or crafted images
|
|
* tests that are supposed to run various utilities on the images and not
|
|
crash
|
|
|
|
*tests/misc-tests/:*
|
|
|
|
* anything that does not fit to the above, the test driver script will only
|
|
execute `./test.sh` in the test directory
|
|
|
|
*tests/common:*
|
|
|
|
* script with helpers
|
|
|
|
*tests/test.img:*
|
|
|
|
* default testing image, the file is never deleted by the scripts but
|
|
truncated to 0 bytes, so it keeps it's permissions. It's eg. possible to
|
|
host it on NFS, make it `chmod a+w` for root.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Other tuning, environment variables
|
|
|
|
### Instrumentation
|
|
|
|
It's possible to wrap the tested commands to utilities that might do more
|
|
checking or catch failures at runtime. This can be done by setting the
|
|
`INSTRUMENT` environment variable:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
INSTRUMENT=valgrind ./fuzz-tests.sh # in tests/
|
|
make INSTRUMENT=valgrind test-fuzz # in the top directory
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The variable is prepended to the command *unquoted*, all sorts of shell tricks
|
|
are possible.
|
|
|
|
Note: instrumentation is not applied to privileged commands (anything that uses
|
|
the root helper).
|
|
|
|
### Verbosity
|
|
|
|
Setting the variable `TEST_LOG=tty` will print all commands executed by some of
|
|
the wrappers (`run_check` etc), other commands are silent.
|
|
|
|
### Permissions
|
|
|
|
Some commands require root privileges (to mount/umount, access loop devices).
|
|
It is assumed that `sudo` will work in some way (no password, password asked
|
|
and cached). Note that instrumentation is not applied in this case, for safety
|
|
reasons. You need to modify the test script instead.
|
|
|
|
### Cleanup
|
|
|
|
The tests are supposed to cleanup after themselves if they pass. In case of
|
|
failure, the rest of the tests are skipped and intermediate files, mounts and
|
|
loop devices are kept. This should help to investigate the test failure but at
|
|
least the mounts and loop devices need to be cleaned before the next run.
|
|
|
|
This is partially done by the script `clean-tests.sh`, you may want to check
|
|
the loop devices as they are managed on a per-test basis.
|
|
|
|
## New test
|
|
|
|
1. Pick the category for the new test or fallback to `misc-tests` if not sure. For
|
|
an easy start copy an existing `test.sh` script from some test that might be
|
|
close to the purpose of your new test.
|
|
|
|
* Use the highest unused number in the sequence, write a short descriptive title
|
|
and join by dashes `-`.
|
|
|
|
* Write a short description of the bug and how it's teste to the comment at the
|
|
begining of `test.sh`.
|
|
|
|
* Write the test commands, comment anything that's not obvious.
|
|
|
|
* Test your test. Use the `TEST` variable to jump right to your test:
|
|
```shell
|
|
$ make TEST=012\* tests-misc # from top directory
|
|
$ TEST=012\* ./misc-tests.sh # from tests/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* The commit changelog should reference a commit that either introduced or
|
|
fixed the bug (or both). Subject line of the shall mention the name of the
|
|
new directory for ease of search, eg. `btrfs-progs: tests: add 012-subvolume-sync-must-wait`
