This is the git repository for openSUSE:Tools/obs-service-tar_scm. The authoritative source is:
The files in this top-level directory are installed at the following locations:
tar_scm.config -> /etc/obs/services/tar_scm
tar_scm -> /usr/lib/obs/service/tar_scm
tar_scm.service -> /usr/lib/obs/service/tar_scm.service
Run the test suite via:
python tests/test.py
The output may become easier to understand if you uncomment the
'failfast' option in test.py. This requires Python 2.7, however.
You may also find that the buffered STDOUT from test failures gets
displayed to the screen twice - once before the test failure (and
corresponding stacktrace), and once after; in which case just grep for
/^FAIL: / in the output and start reading from there.
If you want to narrow the tests being run, to speed up testing during development, just temporarily tweak test.py as directed by the comments. In the future we should move to a better test framework which provides a decent CLI whilst allowing flexibility over how the test suite is built. However it would still have to work on Python 2.6, for the benefit of older distributions such as SLE 11.
Note that for each test, a fresh svn/git/hg/bzr repository is created,
and tar_scm is invoked one or more times in a faked-up OBS source
service environment. Whenever tar_scm invokes the VCS for which its
functionality is being tested, through modification of $PATH it
actually invokes scm-wrapper, which logs the VCS invocation before
continuing.
N.B. pull requests are very welcome, but will not be accepted unless they contain corresponding additions/modifications to the test suite. Test suite bit-rot is the path to gloom and despair :-)
Many thanks in advance!
