makedhcp <node> adds the per-node classes to the loaded Kea config and
writes it back with encode_config. The proxyDHCP class sets always-send
to 1, and the renderer that turns the flag into a JSON boolean is not on
that path. Kea rejects the file ("unexpected integer, expecting
boolean"), so makedhcp fails for every node deferred to proxyDHCP.
The test syncs a proxyDHCP node, encodes the config and expects a JSON
boolean. It fails on this tree.

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 |
| Black-box service tests | xCAT-test/blackboxtest/ |
python3 -m unittest discover -s tests, then blackboxtest run <conf> on a management node |
| 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.
blackboxtest is the odd one out: its Python unit tests and blackboxtest validate run offline like the others, but its point is the third column --
asking a management node what a booting node asks (DHCP, DNS, TFTP, HTTP,
xcatd) and asserting on the answers. It talks to the services only as a client,
so it does not depend on which DHCP server answers or on the xCAT database.
See unit/README.md, bats/README.md and blackboxtest/README.md for the
detailed rules for each suite.
