Running Tests (NEW)

Run the command:

make ci

to run an array of unittests locally.

Underneath the covers, we use tox to manage virtualenvs and run tests. Alternatively, tests can be run using detox which allows for running tests in parallel

pip install tox detox

List the test environments available:

tox -l

Run all of the tests with:

tox

Run all of the tests in parallel with detox:

detox

Running a particular test environment (python 2.7 flake8 tests in this case):

tox -e py27-ansible22-flake8

Running a particular test environment in a clean virtualenv (python 3.5 pylint tests in this case):

tox -r -e py35-ansible22-pylint

If you want to enter the virtualenv created by tox to do additional testing/debugging (py27-flake8 env in this case):

source .tox/py27-ansible22-flake8/bin/activate

You will get errors if the log files already exist and can not be written to by the current user (/tmp/ansible.log and /tmp/installer.txt). We're working on it.

Running From Source

You will need to setup a virtualenv to run from source:

$ virtualenv oo-install
$ source ./oo-install/bin/activate
$ virtualenv --relocatable ./oo-install/
$ python setup.py install

The virtualenv bin directory should now be at the start of your $PATH, and oo-install is ready to use from your shell.

You can exit the virtualenv with:

$ deactivate

Testing (OLD)

This section is deprecated, but still works

First, run the virtualenv setup steps described above.

Install some testing libraries: (we cannot do this via setuptools due to the version virtualenv bundles)

$ pip install mock nose

Then run the tests with:

$ oo-install/bin/nosetests
