    openQA Manual Install

    + +

    Intended Audience

    +

    Those who wish to use the openQA automated testing system configured for Rocky Linux tests. If so, you will need a PC or server with hardware virtualisation running an up-to-date Fedora Linux.

    +

    Introduction

    +

    This guide explains the use of the openQA automated testing system to test various aspects of Rocky Linux releases either at the pre-release stage or thereafter.

    +

    openQA is an automated test tool that makes it possible to test the whole installation process. It uses virtual machines which it sets up to reproduce the process, check the output (both serial console and GUI screen) in every step and send the necessary keystrokes and commands to proceed to the next step. openQA checks whether the system can be installed, whether it works properly, whether applications work and whether the system responds as expected to different installation options and commands.

    +

    Rocky Linux openQA tests can be found in the os-autoinst-distri-rocky repository

    +

    openQA can run numerous combinations of tests for every revision of the operating system, reporting the errors detected for each combination of hardware configuration, installation options and variant of the operating system.

    +

    WebUI

    +

    The web UI is a very useful feature of the openQA system since it provides an easily accessed view of the progress and details of openQA tests either on the local machine or remotely or both. It is intended to be intuitive and self-explanatory.

    +

    Some pages use queries to select what should be shown. The query parameters are generated on clickable links, for example starting from the index page or the group overview page clicking on single builds. On the query pages there can be UI elements to control the parameters, for example to look for older builds or show only failed jobs, or other settings. Additionally, the query parameters can be tweaked by hand if you want to provide a link to specific views.

    +

    Step-by-step Install Guide

    +

    openQA can be installed only on a Fedora (or OpenSUSE) server or workstation. The following install procedure was tested on Fedora 40 Server. You can use either a local terminal or an ssh login from another host on the lan.

    +

    +
    +You can watch progress of these tests on the webui on any browser on the same lan as the test host at

    +

    http://<ip_addr_of_test_host>/tests

    +

    If you click "login" in the top right corner you will be able to control tests from the webui.

    +

    At this point the multi-vm tests will fail or be skipped. This is because at the moment your system is configured for single vm deployment and it can be used as such. Pause your installation here if you wish to get some practice using openQA before progressing further (recommended).

    +

    Installation of facilities for multi-vm testing, which is substantially more complicated, will be described in this document in a later revision (watch this space).

    +

    Helpers

    +

    Createhdds

    +

    Createhdds is used to prepare .img and .qcow2 files for some of the Rocky tests. If you ran the above procedure you will have noticed that it produces a number of files in /var/lib/openqa/factory/hdd/fixed determined by the files provided in createhdds.

    +

    openqa-cli

    +

    Tests are normally posted using openqa-cli as you have already used above. Test parameters are listed and explained in the openQA VARIABLES definition document

    +

    Scripts

    +

    helper scripts - +cancel-build.sh is especially useful when you discover that you have initiated a large build and got it wrong... d'oh.

    +

    Using Templates

    +

    Challenge

    +

    One of the challenges that arises when testing an operating system, especially when doing continuous testing, is that there is always a certain combination of jobs, each one with its own settings, that needs to be run for every revision. These combinations can be different for different FLAVORs of the same revision, like running a different set of jobs for each architecture. This combinational problem can go one step further if openQA is being used for different kinds of tests, like running some simple pre-integration tests for some snapshots combined with more comprehensive post-integration tests for release candidates.

    +

    This section describes how an instance of openQA could be configured using the options in the admin area of the webUI to automatically create all the required jobs for each revision of your operating system that needs to be tested. If you were starting from scratch (the difficult way), you would probably go through the following order:

    +
      +
    1. Define machines in 'Machines' menu
    2. +
    3. Define medium types (products) you have in 'Medium types' menu
    4. +
    5. Specify various collections of tests you want to run in the 'Test suites' menu
    6. +
    7. Define job groups in 'Job groups' menu for groups of tests
    8. +
    9. Select individual 'Job groups' and decide what combinations make sense and need to be tested
    10. +
    +

    If you followed the install guide above then the cloned Rocky tests from os-autoinst-distri-rocky will have pre-configured the admin area of the webUI. You may find it useful to consult when reading the following sections.

    +

    Machines, mediums, test suites and job templates can all set various configuration variables. The job templates within the job groups define how the test suites, mediums and machines should be combined in various ways to produce individual 'jobs'. All the variables from the test suite, medium, machine and job template are combined and made available to the actual test code run by the 'job', along with variables specified as part of the job creation request. Certain variables also influence openQA’s and/or os-autoinst’s own behavior in terms of how it configures the environment for the job.

    +

    The configuration is set up from /var/lib/openqa/tests/rocky/templates.fif.json

    +

    Machines

    +

    You need to have at least one machine set up to be able to run any tests. These machines represent virtual machine types that you want to test. Realistically to make tests actually happen, you have to have a number of openQA workers connected that can fulfill these specifications.

    +
      +
    • Name User defined string - only needed for operator to identify the machine configuration.
    • +
    • Backend What backend should be used for this machine Recommended value is qemu as it is the most tested one, but other options such as kvm2usb or vbox are also possible.
    • +
    • +

      Variables Most machine variables influence os-autoinst’s behavior in terms of how the test machine is set up. A few important examples:

      +
        +
      • QEMUCPU can be qemu32 or qemu64 and specifies the architecture of the virtual CPU
      • +
      • +

        QEMUCPUS is an integer that specifies the number of cores you wish to be used

        +
      • +
      • +

        USBBOOT when set to 1 the image will be loaded through an emulated USB stick.

        +
      • +
      +
    • +
    +

    Medium Types

    +
      +
    • product
        +
      • A medium type product in openQA is a simple description without any definite meaning. It basically consists of a name and a set of variables that define or characterise this product in os-autoinst.
      • +
      +
    • +
    +

    Some example variables are:

    +
      +
    • ISO_MAXSIZE contains the maximum size of the product. There is a test that checks that the current size of the product is less or equal than this variable.
    • +
    • DVD if it is set to 1 this indicates that the medium is a DVD.
    • +
    • LIVECD if it is set to 1 this indicates that the medium is a live image (can be a CD or USB)
    • +
    • GNOME this variable, if it is set to 1 indicates that it is a GNOME only distribution.
    • +
    • RESCUECD is set to 1 for rescue CD images.
    • +
    +

    Test Suites

    +

    A test suite consists of a name and a set of test variables that are used inside this particular test together with an optional description. The test variables can be used to parameterise the actual test code and influence the behaviour according to the settings.

    +

    Some sample variables are:

    +
      +
    • DESKTOP possible values are kde gnome lxde xfce or textmode. Used to indicate the desktop selected by the user during the test.
    • +
    • ENCRYPT encrypt the home directory via YaST
    • +
    • HDDSIZEGB hard disk size in GB.
    • +
    • HDD_1 path for the pre-created hard disk
    • +
    • RAIDLEVEL RAID configuration variable
    • +
    +

    Job Groups

    +

    The job groups are the place where the actual test scenarios are defined by the selection of the medium type, the test suite and machine together with a priority value.

    +

    The priority value is used in the scheduler to choose the next job. If multiple jobs are scheduled and their requirements for running them are fulfilled the ones with a lower priority value are triggered. The id is the second sorting key of two jobs with equal requirements and same priority value the one with lower id is triggered first.

    +

    Job groups themselves can be created over the web UI as well as the REST API. Job groups can optionally be nested into categories. The display order of job groups and categories can be configured by drag-and-drop in the web UI.

    +

    The scenario definitions within the job groups can be created and configured by different means:

    +
      +
    • A simple web UI wizard which is automatically shown for job groups when a new medium is added to the job group.
    • +
    • An intuitive table within the web UI for adding additional test scenarios to existing media including the possibility to configure the priority values.
    • +
    • The scripts openQA-load-templates and openQA-dump-templates to quickly dump and load the configuration from custom plain-text dump format files using the REST API.
    • +
    • Using declarative schedule definitions in the YAML format using REST API routes or an online-editor within the web UI including a syntax checker.
    • +
    +

    Needles

    +

    Needles are very precise and the slightest deviation from the specified display will be detected. This means that every time there is a new release, very small changes occur in layout of displays resulting in many new or modified needles being required. There is always a significant amount of work needed by the Test Team to produce the automatic tests for a new version.

    +

    A very useful feature of the webui is the online needle editor. When a test fails for a missing needle, the needle editor can be activated by clicking the icon and a new needle can be created, usually by copying a similar needle together with the current screenshot. The needle files are saved in the /var/lib/openqa/tests/rocky/needles directory

    +

    Upstream Documentation

    +

    Starter Guide and Upstream documentation are useful for reference but since they are a mixture of advice and instructions relating to openSUSE and Fedora which have substantial differences between them it is not always clear which are significant for Rocky. However, as an rpm based distribution, Rocky Linux use is loosely related to the Fedora version.

    +

    History (briefly)

    +

    openQA started with OS-autoinst: automated testing of Operating Systems +The OS-autoinst project aims at providing a means to run fully automated tests, especially to run tests of basic and low-level operating system components such as bootloader, kernel, installer and upgrade, which can not easily be tested with other automated testing frameworks. However, it can just as well be used to test firefox and openoffice operation on top of a newly installed OS. +openQA is a test-scheduler and web-front for openSUSE and Fedora using OS-autoinst as a backend. +openQA originated at openSuse and was adopted by Fedora as the automated test system for their frequent distribution updates. Maintenance activity is fairly intense and is ongoing at various levels of users. openQA was adopted by Rocky Linux Test Team as the preferred automated testing system for the ongoing releases of it's distribution. +openQA is free software released under the GPLv2 license.

    +

    Attribution

    +

    This guide is heavily inspired by the numerous upstream documents in which installation and usage of OS-autoinst and openQA are described.

    +

    References

    +

    Since Rocky Linux use of openQA is drawn from upstream Fedora and hence openSUSE this document contains many passages which are edited versions of upstream documentation and that use is hereby gratefully acknowledged. As with many open source projects, we build on previous work.

    The Rocky Linux Release Engineering Team builds and maintains tools to manage the debranding of packages received from the upstream vendor. They have published a comprehensive debranding guide and maintain a list of packages requiring debranding patches.

    Packages listed in patch.yml are names of source RPMs. Binary RPMs containing content produced by building the patched source RPMs need to be validated. The easiest way to get the list of all possible binary RPMs for a particular package and arch is to ask obtain that information in koji.

    1. Mount the ISO to be tested locally.

    5. Copy the <binary_package> from the media and examine it's metadata and/or contents to determine if it has obviously been patched.

      NOTE

      Note all debranding patches will patch files directly and leave very obvious traces, some patches don't even add changelog messages to use as an indicator that the package has been patched or debranded. Sometimes the only solution is to extract the binary package and examine the contents directly to find something to test.

    For this tests you will need to install every module stream on its own, so it's the best to setup a new system which gets snapshoted after the initial setup. After that it can be rolled back for every module install.

    1. Login to the machine

    3. The easiest way to test all streams is to install the package groups in the individual streams, i.e. for postgresql:
    dnf module install postgresql\ndnf module install postgresql:13\ndnf module install postgresql:13/client\n

    Repeat step 3 as often as module streams and package groups are available.

    This could be automated with i.e. Ansible to do all the install -> rollback -> install -> rollback -> ... and emiting the output via Ansible.

    This first POST is the most basic, simply providing the minimal set of variables required to trigger the standard test suite for the Rocky Linux 9.1 boot ISO on openqa workers for the x86_64 architecture. All tests of the test suite are predetermined and configure on the openQA server. Since the boot ISO doesn't contain any packages this test suite is effectively a network install from standard Rocky Linux repository servers and/or mirrors.

    This POST demonstrates how a different media type, in this case the minimal ISO, for an alternate Rocky Linux version, in this case Rocky Linux 8.7, can be triggered. As can be seen by this and the previous POST the BUILD variable will typically be designate the date, version and architecture of the test suite. Since the minimal ISO contains all packages required to conduct a minimal install of Rocky Linux that is the behavior of this test suite.

    This POST demonstrates specification of the final normal media type, the dvd ISO, along with what is called a FLAVOR, in this case package-set for the x86_64 architecture and Rocky Linux 9.1. Since the dvd ISO contains all of the packages available at release of a specific version or Rocky Linux the package-set test suite will test installation of all primary installation types of Rocky Linux not included in the minimal-iso test suite above.

    What can be seen from the complete --dry-run output for openqa-clone-custom-git-refspec is that both the job to be cloned and the PR to be used are inspected and a openqa-clone-job command is generated to be submitted to the openQA system the job is being cloned on.

    Without using --dry-run the final openqa-clone-job command shown above will be run causing the job of interest to be cloned with additional POST variables that will cause the repository/branch referenced in the PR to be cloned into the test directory with important files referenced in the cloned job.

    This PR provides updated needles and the default behavior of openqa-clone-custom-git-refspec is to not provide an alternate location for NEEDLES. The --verbose --dry-run output needs to be modified to ensure the needles provided in the PR are used in the test.

    First you might want to query the Rocky Linux openQA system for the latest job ID for a specific job or test. The openQA client, hereafter refered to as openqa-cli will allow you to quickly do that via the API. Here is an example...

    In order for Rocky Linux to be released to the general public, a compose must be able to meet all the following criteria as provided in this document. This is allows the decision process to be straightforward and as clear as possible. This document only contains \u201chard requirement\u201d items. Optional/nice to have items are not to be included in this list.

    There may cases where a requirement cannot be met but only in particular configurations. In these types of cases, the Release Engineering Team should use their judgement to determine whether or not the issue should be considered to block the release. They should consider the number of users likely to be affected by said issue, the severity of the case, if the issue can be avoided with ease (by both informed and uninformed users), and if the problem exists upstream in the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux that the release is based on.

    Release-blocking Server

    ...means bugs as it pertains to server functionality can be considered to block a release. This applies to any packages that provide a service such as httpd, nginx, etc. All architectures apply.

    Release-blocking Desktop

    ...means bugs as it pertains to desktop functionality (GNOME) can be considered to block a release. This applies to both x86_64 and aarch64. Additional desktops (as provided by EPEL or a SIG) are not considered blockers.

    Release-blocking Image

    ...means bugs as it pertains to the images built that can block a release. This applies to the DVD, minimal, and boot images on all architectures.

    Release-blocking installer images must boot when written to optical media or USB flash drive of appropriate sizes (if applicable) via officially supported methods. It is not the testing team\u2019s responsibility to test optical media, but they can and report back. If a bug is found, it is considered a blocker.

    Optical Media Requirements

    Release-blocking images must boot when written to optical media of an appropriate size. Current size requirements are: boot.iso = 789M, minimal.iso = 2.0G and dvd.iso = 10G.

    Officially supported USB flash drive writing methods

    The following methods of writing USB flash drives are officially support: dd The following methods of writing USB flash drives are not supported: rufus

    The generic video driver option (\u201cbasic graphics mode\u201d) on all release-blocking installers must function as intended. This means launching the installer or desktop and attempting to use a generic driver. There must be no bugs that prevent the installer from being reached in this configuration on all systems and classes of hardware supported by the enterprise linux kernel.

    Critical errors, such as undeclared conflicts, unresolved dependencies, or modules relying on packages from another stream will be considered an automatic blocker. There are potential exceptions to this (eg, freeradius cannot be installed on an older perl stream, this is a known issue upstream).

    References "},{"location":"guidelines/release_criteria/r8/8_release_criteria/#repositories-must-match-upstream","title":"Repositories Must Match Upstream","text":"

    Repositories and the packages within them should match upstream as closely as possible. Notable exceptions would be kmods, kpatch, or what is deemed as \u201cspyware\u201d like insights. Packages that are available from upstream should not have hard requirements on RHSM and packages that have it default built in should be patched out.
