Daniel Hilst 3a715962d8 test(xcat-core): a failed extraction in the Genesis build-root test stops the whole suite
genesis_ubuntu_build_root.t called BAIL_OUT at four places where an
extraction stopped matching. prove stops every remaining file on a
bail-out, so one stale regex in this file hides the results of the tests
that would have run after it. die is just as loud and costs only this
file.

Four comments in the same file also explained more than the code hides:
the header retold the failure the test exists for, two narrated the two
helper subroutines, and one traced the lease failure across doxcat, the
image and the node.

xCAT-test

Unit tests that run from the source checkout are split by implementation language:

Test type Location Runner
Perl unit tests xCAT-test/unit/*.t prove -r xCAT-test/unit
Shell unit tests xCAT-test/bats/*.bats bats -r xCAT-test/bats
CLI functional tests xCAT-test/autotest/testcase/ and xCAT-test/autotest/bundle/ xcattest -f <cluster.conf> -t <case> or xcattest -f <cluster.conf> -b <bundle>

Use Perl .t tests for Perl modules, Perl scripts, templates, and repository artifacts. Use BATS tests for shell-script behavior that can be exercised from the checkout by sourcing a shell library or script and shadowing external commands.

Shell behavior should not be tested by Perl tests that grep shell source. Put those tests under xCAT-test/bats instead.

See unit/README.md and bats/README.md for the detailed rules for each unit-test suite.
