This guide provides instructions on how to run an end-to-end test for testing a Fuchsia product.
This guide uses the Fuchsia emulator (FEMU) to
emulate a device that runs Fuchsia. As for the end-to-end test, the guide uses
the
screen_is_not_black
end-to-end test.
The screen_is_not_black
end-to-end test reboots a device under test
(DUT), waits 100 seconds, and takes a snapshot of the device’s screen. If the
snapshot image is not a black screen, the test concludes that Fuchsia is
successfully up and running on the device after reboot.
To run this end-to-end test, the steps are:
- Prerequisites.
- Build a Fuchsia image to include the end-to-end test.
- Start the emulator with the Fuchsia image.
- Run the end-to-end test.
Also, to run any end-to-end test, see the Appendices section.
1. Prerequisites
This guide requires that you've completed the following guides:
2. Build a Fuchsia image to include the end-to-end test
Before you can run the screen_is_not_black
end-to-end test, you first
need to build your Fuchsia image to include the test in the build artifacts:
To add the end-to-end test, run the
fx set
command with the following--with
option:fx set workstation.qemu-x64 --with //src/tests/end_to_end/screen_is_not_black
//src/tests/end_to_end/screen_is_not_black
is a test directory in the Fuchsia source tree. TheBUILD.gn
file in this directory defines thescreen_is_not_black
target to include thescreen_is_not_black
end-to-end test in the build artifacts.Build your Fuchsia image:
fx build
When the
fx build
command completes, the build artifacts now include thescreen_is_not_black
end-to-end test, which you can run from your host machine.
3. Start the emulator with the Fuchsia image
Start the emulator with your Fuchsia image and run a package repository server:
Configure an IPv6 network for the emulator:
sudo ip tuntap add dev qemu mode tap user $USER && sudo ip link set qemu up
Configure the upscript:
ffx config set emu.upscript PATH_TO_UPSCRIPT
Replace the following:
PATH_TO_UPSCRIPT
: The path to a FEMU network setup script; for example,~/fuchsia/scripts/start-unsecure-internet.sh
.
Start the package server
fx serve
Start the emulator:
ffx emu start --net tap
When startup is complete, the emulator prints the following message and opens a shell prompt:
Logging to "$HOME/.local/share/Fuchsia/ffx/emu/instances/fuchsia-emulator/emulator.log" Waiting for Fuchsia to start (up to 60 seconds)........Emulator is ready.
The
--net
flag requires a value to indicate which kind of networking to implement.--net
has the following possible values:tap
: Attaches a Tun/Tap interface.user
: Sets up mapped ports through SLiRP.none
: Disables networking.auto
: Checks the host system's capabilities and selectstap
if it is available oruser
if a tap interface is unavailable.auto
is the default.
auto
is the default if the flag is not specified on the command line. The upscript is automatically executed only if the user selectstap
mode.If
auto
is used, the launcher checks for a tap interface on the device. If it finds a tap interface, it usestap
mode; otherwise it usesuser
mode.Run the
fx set-device
command and selectfuchsia-emulator
(the emulator's default device name) to be your device, for example:$ fx set-device ERROR: Multiple devices found, please pick one from the list: 1) fuchsia-4407-0bb4-d0eb 2) fuchsia-emulator #? 2 New default device: fuchsia-emulator
4. Run the end-to-end test
Run the screen_is_not_black
end-to-end test:
fx test --e2e screen_is_not_black
When the test passes, this command prints output similar to the following:
Saw a screen that is not black; waiting for 0:00:59.924543 now.
...
[FINE]: Running over ssh: killall sl4f.cmx
01:46 +1: All tests passed!
Appendices
Run any end-to-end test
Use the fx test --e2e
command to run an end-to-end test from your host
machine:
fx test --e2e <TEST_NAME>
Some product configurations may include a set of end-to-end tests by default (see Examine product configuration files). However, if you want to run an end-to-end test that is not part of your product configuration, configure your Fuchsia image to include the specific test:
fx set <PRODUCT>.<BOARD> --with <TEST_DIRECTORY>:<TARGET>
For example, the following commands configure and build your Fuchsia image
with all the end-to-end tests in the
//src/tests/end_to_end/perf
test
directory:
$ fx set workstation.qemu-x64 --with //src/tests/end_to_end/perf:test
$ fx build
For the list of all available end-to-end tests in the Fuchsia repository, see the //src/tests/end_to_end directory.
Examine product configuration files
To find out which end-to-end tests are included in a
specific product configuration, examine product configuration files (.gni
) in
the Fuchsia repository's //products
directory.
The following example shows the product configurations files in the
//products
directory:
~/fuchsia/products$ ls *.gni
bringup.gni core.gni terminal.gni workstation.gni
To see the list of all available product configurations, you can run the following command:
fx list-products
Among these product configurations, terminal
and
workstation
include end-to-end tests by
default. The following example shows the end-to-end tests included
in terminal.gni
:
cache_package_labels += [
...
"//src/tests/end_to_end/bundles:end_to_end_deps",
"//src/tests/end_to_end/bundles:terminal_end_to_end_deps",
]
...
universe_package_labels += [
"//src/tests/end_to_end/screen_is_not_black",
"//src/tests/end_to_end/sl4f:test",
"//src/tests/end_to_end/perf:test",
...
