Linux内核测试工具Autotest简介 【Introduction】Autotest is a framework for fully automated testing. It is designed primarily to test the Linux kernel, though it is useful for many other purposes such as qualifying new hardware, virtualization testing and other general user space program testing under linux platforms. Its an open-source project under the GPL and is used and developed by a number of organizations, including Google, IBM, Red Hat, and many others. Testing is not about running tests ... testing is about finding and fixing bugs. We have to: Run the tests Find a bug Classify the bug Hand the bugs off to a developer Developer investigates bug cyclical Developer tests some proposed fix cyclical Fix checked in New release issued to test team. So many test systems I see are oriented only around the first two or even one! steps. This is massively inefficient 【Autotest vs Other harnesses】 ONE harness to do performance, stress, multi-machine testing, etc. 性能，压力，分布式测试 Consistent results logging structure Web and CLI front end 网页前端控制测试用例 Web and CLI analysis backend 网页前端分析 Shared machine pool scheduler EASY to write new tests: low entry barrier 易写新测试 Open source – share tests with vendors 开源 Control files are powerful! Proven scaling – 6000 machines+ 可控制机器数 【setup】 直接从github上的stonekim/autotest 克隆下来，其中添加了新的功能——测试用例可以不放在tests文件夹下，可在任意位置。 git clone git@：stonekim/autotest.git 注意?不安装也可使用，但若安装，需将项目中的commux文件夹copy到安装目录下。另外如有需要也须将可执行文件复制过去 cd autotest/sudo python setup.py installsudo cp commux /setup/path/autotest 【Usage Tutorial】 Run Client host（the result is in results folder） cd client/sudo ./autotest --verbose tests/sleeptest/control Run Server host（The Server host should ssh connect Client host without password ,instead of authorized keys） cd server/sudo ./autoserv -remote -m root@hostaddress1,root@hostaddress2 -c ../client/tests/sleeptest/control 【Test Example】 每个测试用例包含以下文件： An example control file eg tests/mytest/control A test wrapper eg tests/mytest/mytest.py
