Hi,
it seems we broke the block/gluster.c functionality with a recent patch
in upstream Gluster. In order to prevent this from happening in the
future, I would like to setup a Jenkins job that installs a plan CentOS
with its version of QEMU, and nightly builds of upstream Gluster.
Getting a notification about breakage the day after a patch got merged
seems like a reasonable approach.
The test should at least boot the generic CentOS cloud image (slightly
modified with libguestfs) and return a success/fail. I am wondering if
there are automated tests like this already, and if I could (re)use some
of the scripts for it. At the moment, I am thinking to so it like this:
- download the image [1]
- set kernel parameters to output on the serial console
- add a auto-login user/script
- have the script write "bootup complete" or something
- have the script poweroff the VM
- script that started the VM checks for the "bootup complete" message
- return success/fail
Sounds like something that Avocado should be able (or actually is
designed) to do. I can't tell you the details of how to write the test
case for it, but I'm adding a CC to Lukáš who probably can (and I think
it shouldn't be hard anyway).
