NAME [edit section]

pre_test

SYNOPSIS [edit section]

• pre_test <test_name>

DESCRIPTION [edit section]

Perform setup and other operations needed on the host and target, before executing a test. This corresponds to the 'pre_test' phase. Note that the phase 'pre_check' is nested inside 'pre_test'.

It does the following, in sequence:

• set SSHPASS (from $PASSWORD)
• if $TARGET_SETUP_LINK is defined, execute it
• if $Target_PreCleanup flag is true, call target_cleanup()
• if test_pre_check is defined, call it
• test the connection to the target (by running 'true' on the target)
• create the log directories on the host
• get the firmware version from the target
• run ov_rootfs_state
• remove the test directories (in $BOARD_TESTDIR and /tmp) on the target
  • note that this removes just this test's prior directories, if any, on the target. If $Target_Cleanup is not true, and there are directories from other tests on the target, they are left alone.
• log the test name
• get the 'before' syslogs
• flush filesystem buffers and drop filesystem caches

EXAMPLES [edit section]

Here are some sample invocations:

 pre_test $TESTDIR

ENVIRONMENT and ARGUMENTS [edit section]

$1 is the base name of the test (e.g. Functional.hellO_world). This is usually passed in as $TESTDIR by the caller.

Variables also used by pre_test are:

• $TESTDIR
• $JOB_NAME
• $PASSWORD
• $TARGET_SETUP_LINK
• $Target_Cleanup
• $Device
• $TRANSPORT
• $FUEGO_LOGS_PATH
• $FWVER
• $BOARD_TESTDIR
