Subunit2SQL
|
||||
===========
|
||||
|

Contents
|
||||
========
|
||||
subunit2SQL is a tool for storing test results data in a SQL database. Like
|
||||
it's name implies it was originally designed around converting `subunit`_
|
||||
streams to data in a SQL database and the packaged utilities assume a subunit
|
||||
stream as the input format. However, the data model used for the DB does not
|
||||
preclude using any test result format. Additionally the analysis tooling built
|
||||
on top of a database is data format agnostic. However if you choose to use a
|
||||
different result format as an input for the database additional tooling using
|
||||
the DB api would need to be created to parse a different test result output
|
||||
format. It's also worth pointing out that subunit has several language library
|
||||
bindings available. So as a user you could create a small filter to convert a
|
||||
different format to subunit. Creating a filter should be fairly easy and then
|
||||
you don't have to worry about writing a tool like :ref:`subunit2sql` to use a
|
||||
different format.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _subunit: https://github.com/testing-cabal/subunit/blob/master/README.rst
|
||||
|
||||
For multiple distributed test runs that are generating subunit output it is
|
||||
useful to store the results in a unified repository. This is the motivation for
|
||||
the `testrepository`_ project which does a good job for centralizing the
|
||||
results from multiple test runs.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _testrepository: http://testrepository.readthedocs.org/en/latest/
|
||||
|
||||
However, imagine something like the OpenStack CI system where the same basic
|
||||
test suite is normally run several hundreds of times a day. To provide useful
|
||||
introspection on the data from those runs and to build trends over time
|
||||
the test results need to be stored in a format that allows for easy querying.
|
||||
Using a SQL database makes a lot of sense for doing this, which was the
|
||||
original motivation for the project.
|
||||
|
||||
At a high level subunit2SQL uses alembic migrations to setup a DB schema that
|
||||
can then be used by the :ref:`subunit2sql` tool to parse subunit streams and
|
||||
populate the DB. Then there are tools for interacting with the stored data in
|
||||
the :ref:`subunit2sql-graph` command as well as the :ref:`sql2subunit`
|
||||
command to create a subunit stream from data in the database. Additionally,
|
||||
subunit2sql provides a Python DB API that can be used to query information from
|
||||
the stored data to build other tooling.

Usage
|
||||
=====
|
||||
|
||||
DB Setup
|
||||
--------
|
||||
|
||||
The usage of subunit2sql is split into 2 stages. First you need to prepare a
|
||||
database with the proper schema; subunit2sql-db-manage should be used to do
|
||||
this. The utility requires db connection info which can be specified on the
|
||||
command or with a config file. Obviously the sql connector type, user,
|
||||
password, address, and database name should be specific to your environment.
|
||||
subunit2sql-db-manage will use alembic to setup the db schema. You can run the
|
||||
db migrations with the command::
|
||||
|
||||
subunit2sql-db-manage --database-connection mysql://subunit:pass@127.0.0.1/subunit upgrade head
|
||||
|
||||
or with a config file::
|
||||
|
||||
subunit2sql-db-manage --config-file subunit2sql.conf upgrade head
|
||||
|
||||
This will bring the DB schema up to the latest version for subunit2sql.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _subunit2sql:
|
||||
|
||||
subunit2sql
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
|
||||
Once you have a database setup with the proper database schema you can then use
|
||||
the subunit2sql command to populate the database with data from your test runs.
|
||||
subunit2sql takes in a subunit v2 either through stdin or by passing it file
|
||||
paths as positional arguments to the script. If only a subunit v1 stream is
|
||||
available, it can be converted to a subunit v2 stream using the subunit-1to2
|
||||
utility.
|
||||
|
||||
There are several options for running subunit2sql, they can be listed with::
|
||||
|
||||
subunit2sql --help
|
||||
|
||||
The only required option is --database-connection. The options can either be
|
||||
used on the CLI, or put in a config file. If a config file is used you need to
|
||||
specify the location on the CLI.
|
||||
|
||||
Most of the optional arguments deal with how subunit2sql interacts with the
|
||||
SQL DB. However, it is worth pointing out that the artifacts option and the
|
||||
run_meta option are used to pass additional metadata into the database for the
|
||||
run(s) being added. The artifacts option should be used to pass in a url or
|
||||
path that points to any logs or other external test artifacts related to the
|
||||
run being added. The run_meta option takes in a dictionary which will be added
|
||||
to the database as key value pairs associated with the run being added.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _sql2subunit:
|
||||
|
||||
sql2subunit
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
|
||||
The sql2subunit utility is used for taking a run_id and creating a subunit
|
||||
v2 stream from the data in the DB about that run. To create a new subunit
|
||||
stream run::
|
||||
|
||||
sql2subunit $RUN_ID
|
||||
|
||||
along with any options that you would normally use to either specify a config
|
||||
file or the DB connection info. Running this command will print to stdout the
|
||||
subunit v2 stream for the run specified by $RUN_ID, unless the --out_path
|
||||
argument is specified to write it to a file instead.
