This comes about because OpenDev's Zuul deployment is using Ansible 11 by default now. Ansible 11 doesn't support python older than python3.8. Bionic has python3.6 on it so python3.6 tests on Bionic fail hard with Ansible 11. Let's drop the python3.6 test entirely as a result. Then we've also recently cleaned out the Xenial (for x86-64 and arm64) mirror content as OpenDev doesn't have any Xenial test nodes any longer. This broke DIB jobs that build Xenial and Bionic ARM64 images. Considering Bionic doesn't work with Ansible 11 OpenDev expects to clean up those test images in the near future too. Let's get ahead of that cleanup in DIB and drop all testing for Xenial and Bionic. Note we keep the old nodepool based functional jobs around for now as projects like glean still use them. We should clean those jobs up in a separate effort. Change-Id: Id3f5d290aed503d70c7c06bf4a1477169b2a84c6 Signed-off-by: Clark Boylan <clark.boylan@gmail.com>
DIB Testing
There are several interfaces for testing various parts of DIB
- run_dib_library_tests.sh : run unit-tests for internal
diskimage-builder library functions
- run_functests.sh : run functional testing provided by elements
- run_output_format_test.sh : run a test of image conversion
(requires docker)
