Intro
-----
We test shill using two sets of tests: unit tests, and integration
tests. The unit tests are built using Google Test [1] and Google Mock
[2]; the integration tests use autotest [3].

Running unit tests
------------------
- build the shill_unittest target
- run the resulting shill_unittest binary
- if you're using our ebuild scripts, you can do both by running
  (chroot)$ FEATURES="test" emerge-x86-generic shill
- run the unit tests from your host machine under gdb
  (chroot)$ FEATURES="test noclean" emerge-x86-generic shill
  (chroot)$ gdb_x86_local --board x86-generic \
                /build/x86-generic/tmp/portage/chromeos-base/shill-9999/work/shill-9999/shill_unittest
  (Of course if the unit tests segfaulted, you wouldn't need the emerge
  step since the build directory would have been retained in the course
  of the test failing.)

- for an incremental workflow, you can setup like this:
  (chroot)$ cros_workon --board x86-generic shill
- incrementally build like this:
  (chroot)$ CXXFLAGS=-g cros_workon_make --board x86-generic --reconf --test shill
- and then debug tests like this:
  (chroot)$ gdb_x86_local --board x86-generic /path/to/checkout/src/platform/shill/shill_unittest

- you can specify arguments to the unit tests like this:
  - full workflow:
    (chroot)$ GTEST_ARGS="--v=1000 --gtest_filter=WiFiPropertyTest.*" \
      FEATURES="test" emerge-x86-generic shill
  - incremenetal workflow:
    (chroot)$ GTEST_ARGS="--v=1000 --gtest_filter=WiFiPropertyTest.*" \
      CXXFLAGS=-g cros_workon_make --board x86-generic --reconf --test shill

Running integration tests
-------------------------
- build a test image, suitable for a VM:
  (chroot) src/scripts$ ./build_packages --board=x86-generic
  (chroot) src/scripts$ ./build_image --board=x86-generic \
                            --noenable_rootfs_verification test
  (chroot) src/scripts$ ./image_to_vm.sh --board=x86-generic --test_image

- start the VM
  (host)$ sudo kvm -m 1024 -vga std -pidfile /tmp/kvm.pid \
              -net nic,model=virtio -net user,hostfwd=tcp::9222-:22 \
              -hda <path to chroot>/src/build/images/x86-generic/latest/chromiumos_qemu_image.bin

- open a root shell on the VM console
  - in VM console, log in with any legal account (but not Guest)
  - hit C-A-t to open a shell (use right control and alt, to avoid escaping
    out of VM's mouse capture)

  crosh> shell
  chronos@localhost / $ sudo bash

- if you've modified the source after building the image, load shill onto VM image:
  (chroot) src/scripts$ ./start_devserver
  localhost / # FEATURES="nostrip" gmerge shill

- stop flimflam, and start shill
  localhost / # stop flimflam
  localhost / # shill --foreground --v=1000 \
            --device-black-list=managed0,managed1
  (the black list keep shill from configuring the devices used by the hostapd
  processes.)

- run the tests
  (chroot) src/scripts$ ./run_remote_tests.sh --board=x86-generic \
                            --remote=127.0.0.1 --ssh_port 9222 \
                            --args="config_file=wifi_vm_config" WiFiManager

  To run a specific test out of the test suite, use test_pat option to --args.

  # Example: To just run the 035CheckWEPKeySyntax test:
  (chroot) src/scripts$ ./run_remote_tests.sh --board=x86-generic \
                            --remote=127.0.0.1 --ssh_port 9222 \
                            --args="config_file=wifi_vm_config test_pat=035CheckWEPKeySyntax" WiFiManager

- configuration note: if you use a different port
  (e.g. hostfwd=tcp::9223-:22), you'll need to change:
    - the ssh_port argument to run_remote_tests
    - the port numbers in
      <chroot>/third_party/autotest/files/client/config/wifi_vm_config

- debugging test failures
  - "grep shill /var/log/messages" for log messages
  - "grep wpa_supplicant /var/log/messages" for supplicant log messages
  - "wpa_debug debug" to increase supplicant log level
  - try resetting the test infrastructure
    - rmmod mac80211_hwsim mac80211 cfg80211
    - restart wpasupplicant
    - rm /tmp/hostapd-test.control/*
  - examine autotest log files
    - check how far the test got before it failed
      $ grep -a ': step ' <test output>/<suite name>/<suite name>.<test name>/debug/<suite name>.<test name>.INFO
      e.g.
      (chroot) $ grep -a ': step ' /tmp/run_remote_tests.abcd/network_WiFiRoaming/network_WiFiRoaming.002Suspend/debug/network_WiFiRoaming.002Suspend.INFO
    - read the log file
      (chroot) $ LESSOPEN= less /tmp/run_remote_tests.abcd/network_WiFiRoaming/network_WiFiRoaming.002Suspend/debug/network_WiFiRoaming.002Suspend.INFO

      (LESSOPEN= prevents less from misinterpreting the logs as binary files,
       and piping them through hexdump.)

- additional test suites: we have a number of other WiFi test suites
  (in addition to WiFiManager). these are: WiFiMatFunc, WiFiPerf,
  WiFiRoaming, WiFiSecMat. the WiFiPerf tests are probably not too
  relevant to shill (just yet), but the rest probably are.
