These combinations can be different for different <code>FLAVORs</code> 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.</p> <p>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:</p> <ol> <li>Define machines in 'Machines' menu</li> <li>Define medium types (products) you have in 'Medium types' menu</li> <li>Specify various collections of tests you want to run in the 'Test suites' menu</li> <li>Define job groups in 'Job groups' menu for groups of tests</li> <li>Select individual 'Job groups' and decide what combinations make sense and need to be tested</li> </ol> <p>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.</p> <p>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\u2019s and/or os-autoinst\u2019s own behavior in terms of how it configures the environment for the job.</p> <p>The configuration is set up from <code>/var/lib/openqa/tests/rocky/templates.fif.json</code></p>"},{"location":"guidelines/openqa_manual_install/#machines","title":"Machines","text":"<p>You need to have at least one machine set up to be able to run any tests.

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.
