Vinícius Ferrão 94a6e6565b test(xcatconfig): cover the root image check of an upgrade
The upgrade step must set rootimgchecksum to no for the stateless and
statelite images that do not set it, also for an image without a
linuximage row. It must keep an image that sets the attribute, leave
other images alone, and set site.rootimgchecksum to yes. A later
upgrade, and an upgrade after the administrator set the site attribute,
must change no image.

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
Native host tests xCAT-test/native/*.t Explicit lab runs; see native/README.md
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.
