# vim: ft=rst
This directory contains test scripts that are useful for running a
bunch of tests all at once.
There are two parts to this:
* The test runner (selftest/selftest.pl)
* The test formatter
selftest.pl simply outputs subunit, which can then be formatted or analyzed
by tools that understand the subunit protocol. One of these tools is
format-subunit, which is used by default as part of "make test".
Available testsuites
====================
The available testsuites are obtained from a script, usually
source{3,4}/selftest/tests.py. This script should for each testsuite output
the name of the test, the command to run and the environment that should be
provided. Use the included "plantest" function to generate the required output.
Testsuite behaviour
===================
Exit code
------------
The testsuites should exit with a non-zero exit code if at least one
test failed. Skipped tests should not influence the exit code.
Output format
-------------
Testsuites can simply use the exit code to indicate whether all of their
tests have succeeded or one or more have failed. It is also possible to
provide more granular information using the Subunit protocol.
This protocol works by writing simple messages to standard output. Any
messages that can not be interpreted by this protocol are considered comments
for the last announced test.
For a full description of the subunit protocol, see the README file in the subunit
repository at http://github.com/testing-cabal/subunit.
The following commands are Samba extensions to Subunit:
start-testsuite
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
start-testsuite: name
The testsuite name is used as prefix for all containing tests.
skip-testsuite
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
skip-testsuite: name
Mark the testsuite with the specified name as skipped.
testsuite-success
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
testsuite-success: name
Indicate that the testsuite has succeeded successfully.
testsuite-fail
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
testsuite-fail: name
Indicate that a testsuite has failed.
Environments
============
Tests often need to run against a server with particular things set up,
a "environment". This environment is provided by the test "target": Samba 3,
Samba 4 or Windows.
The environments are currently available include
- none: No server set up, no variables set.
- dc,s3dc: Domain controller set up. The following environment variables will
be set:
* USERNAME: Administrator user name
* PASSWORD: Administrator password
* DOMAIN: Domain name
* REALM: Realm name
* SERVER: DC host name
* SERVER_IP: DC IPv4 address
* SERVER_IPV6: DC IPv6 address
* NETBIOSNAME: DC NetBIOS name
* NETIOSALIAS: DC NetBIOS alias
- member,s4member,s3member: Domain controller and member server that is joined to it set up. The
following environment variables will be set:
* USERNAME: Domain administrator user name
* PASSWORD: Domain administrator password
* DOMAIN: Domain name
* REALM: Realm name
* SERVER: Name of the member server
See Samba.pm, Samba3.pm and Samba4.pm for the full list.
Running tests
=============
To run all the tests use::
make test
To run a quicker subset run::
make quicktest
To run a specific test, use this syntax::
make test TESTS=testname
for example::
make test TESTS=samba4.BASE-DELETE
