Overview

System tests exercise Podman in the context of a complete, composed environment from distribution packages. It should match as closely as possible to how an end-user would experience a fresh-install. Dependencies on external configuration and resources must be kept minimal, and the tests must be generic and vendor-neutral.

The system-tests must execute cleanly on all tested platforms. They may optionally be executed during continuous-integration testing of code-changes, after all other testing completes successfully. For a list of tested platforms, please see the CI configuration file.

Execution

When working from a clone of the libpod repository, the main entry-point for humans and automation is make localsystem. When operating from a packaged version of the system-tests, the entry-point may vary as appropriate. Running the packaged system-tests assumes the version of Podman matches the test version, and all standard dependencies are installed.

Test Design and overview

System-tests should be high-level and user work-flow oriented. For example, consider how multiple Podman invocations would be used together by an end-user. The set of related commands should be considered a single test. If one or more intermediate commands fail, the test could still pass if the end-result is still achieved.

TODO: List of needed System-tests

Note: Common operations (like rm and rmi for cleanup/reset) have been omitted as they are verified by repeated implied use.

  • pull, build, run, attach, commit, diff, inspect

    • Pull existing image from registry
    • Build new image FROM explicitly pulled image
    • Run built container in detached mode
    • Attach to running container, execute command to modify storage.
    • Commit running container to new image w/ changed ENV VAR
    • Verify attach + commit using diff
    • verify changed ENV VAR with inspect

  • Implied pull, create, start, exec, log, stop, wait, rm

    • Create non-existing local image
    • start stopped container
    • exec simple command in running container
    • verify exec result with log
    • wait on running container
    • stop running container with 2 second timeout
    • verify wait in 4 seconds or less
    • verify stopped by rm without --force

  • Implied pull, build, export, modify, import, tag, run, kill

    • Build from Dockerfile FROM non-existing local image
    • Export built container as tarball
    • Modify tarball contents
    • Import tarball
    • Tag imported image
    • Run imported image to confirm tarball modification, block on non-special signal
    • Kill can send non-TERM/KILL signal to container to exit
    • Confirm exit within timeout

  • Container runlabel, exists, checkpoint, exists, restore, stop, prune

    • Using pre-existing remote image, start it with 'podman container runlabel --pull'
    • Run a named container that exits immediately
    • Confirm 'container exists' zero exit (both containers)
    • Checkpoint the running container
    • Confirm 'container exists' non-zero exit (runlabel container)
    • Confirm 'container exists' zero exit (named container)
    • Run 'container restore'
    • Confirm 'container exists' zero exit (both containers)
    • Stop container
    • Run 'container prune'
    • Confirm podman ps -a lists no containers
