<?xml version="1.0"?><html><body><h1>libvirt-test-API: Python based test suite </h1><p>Libvirt-test-API is a powerful test tool designed to complement existing libvirt test tools such as libvirt-TCK and the internal test suite. It aims at functional regression testing, trying to exercise nearly all the API by the way of the Python bindings.</p><p>The test API currently covers:</p><ul><li>domain: all classical lifetime operations, installation of various guests OSes, snapshots</li><li>interfaces: define, create, destroy, undefine, NPIV</li><li>virtual networks: define, create, destroy, undefine</li><li>storage: regression tests for most storage types and configurations dir, disk, netfs, iSCSI, multipath</li></ul><p>Some of the tests need dedicated local resources whose definitions are stored in a configuration file. The tests are defined using Python modules defining the code for the test, this is called a <tt>test case</tt>, and test <tt>configuration files</tt> using one or more test case to define a given test scenario.</p><p>For more details you can look at:</p><ul><li> A <ahref="http://libvirt.org/sources/libvirt-test-API/Libvirt-test-API.pdf">documentation PDF</a> file describing the test suite and how to write test cases and test scenarios.</ul><p> Libvirt-test-API is maintained using<ahref="http://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt-test-API.git">a GIT repository</a>, and comment, patches and reviews are carried on the <ahref="contact.html">libvir-list</a> development list.</p></body></html>
