Hi Yan,

Could you please attach the full log? The active controller client should have been set while pytest is collecting the test cases prior to setup step 1 even started.  

It should be under ~/AUTOMATION_LOGS/<floatingip>/<session_dir>/TIS_AUTOMATION.log

Also assuming we figured out above issue, seems your goal is to run platform sanity that is not dependent on stx-openstack, at the moment, the setup automatically detects stx-openstack, and if it’s applied, it will also expect the tenants,users,neutron routers,networks to have been created to prepare for stx-openstack test.

To work around it, you can do one of the two things for now.

1. Remove stx-openstack

2. In file /home/ec/workspace/codebase/test/automated-pytest-suite/setups.py, modify following function:

def setup_natbox_ssh(natbox, con_ssh):

return None

To fix it properly,  we can add a configurable option to the test config file to skip the setup even if stx-openstack is present.

BR,

yang

Subject: [Starlingx-discuss] How to run stx-test: automated-pytest-suite?

Hi,

I’m trying to run the automated-pytest-suite cases under stx-test on a simplex deployment (on a vm created by qemu kvm).

The controller-0 is already unlocked and stx-openstack applied successfully.

I tried to make my own test.conf following the sample config file (stx-test_template.conf) as attached.

And I tried to run cases with the following command:

$ pytest -m platform_sanity --testcase-config=./test.conf testcases/

But I got the following error log at the setup step 1:

[2019-08-01 07:44:23,466] 1477 INFO  MainThread ssh.set_natbox_client:: NatBox localhost ssh client is set

ERROR

I’m wondering if this NATBox configuration is a must and if I configured it correctly?

Anyone can help on the test config file?

Or is there anything I need to do before the test?

Thanks a lot!

Yan
