StoRM testsuite

Requirements

Robot Framework

This testsuite uses Robot Framework. For SL*, Robot Framework is not on a repository, and it is needed to manually install it

First install python 2.6

yum install python 26

then download Robot (actually 2.7.7 is the latest version) and install it:

wget https://robotframework.googlecode.com/files/robotframework-2.7.7.tar.gz
tar -xzf robotframework-2.7.7.tar.gz
cd robotframework-2.7.7
sudo python26 setup.py install

Repositories

You need EGI-trustanchors repo installed on your host. Download it and move it into /etc/yum.repos.d/ directory. Then launch:

yum clean all

Install also the latest EMI repositories (you can find the latest SL5 or SL6 rpm here):

wget http://emisoft.web.cern.ch/emisoft/dist/EMI/3/sl6/x86_64/base/emi-release-3.0.0-2.el6.noarch.rpm
yum localinstall --nogpgcheck emi-release-3.0.0-2.el6.noarch.rpm

in case of an SL6 installation.

IGI-test-CA

Tests are made for IGI-test-CA signed certificates, so download this rpm and install it with rpm -ivh command.

wget http://radiohead.cnaf.infn.it:9999/job/test-ca/os=SL5_x86_64/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/igi-test-ca/rpmbuild/RPMS/noarch/igi-test-ca-1.0.2-2.noarch.rpm
rpm -ivh igi-test-ca-1.0.2-2.noarch.rpm

Third-party clients and others

This testsuite needs to execute several clients' commands. For example, it needs to use commands of:

• StoRM clientSRM
• dCache srmclient
• LCG-utils
• ldap client
• VOMS client

So, including all the dependencies, the following packages have to be installed on testsuite host:

• java openjdk 1.6.0
• openldap-clients
• ca-policy-egi-core
• globus-gass-copy-progs
• emi-storm-srm-client-mp
• lcg-util
• voms-clients
• dcache-srmclient

Run:

yum install java-1.6.0-openjdk openldap-clients ca-policy-egi-core globus-gass-copy-progs emi-storm-srm-client-mp lcg-util voms-clients dcache-srmclient

VOMS clients

As seen before, the voms clients package installed, i.e. voms-proxy-* commands must be available. Actually, the testsuite needs to create a VOMS proxy for the testers.eu-emi.eu VO, so configure your VOMS client to satisfy this requirement (add the needed files to /etc/vomses and /etc/grid-security/vomsdir).

Getting the testsuite

You need git installed at this point. If it's not installed run:

yum install git

Checkout the code using the following command:

git clone https://github.com/italiangrid/storm-testsuite.git

Run tests

Execute the Robot Framework command-line passing at least the storm backend hostname (a standalone deployment scenario):

pybot --pythonpath .:lib --variable backEndHost:<your-BE-hostname> tests/

If you want to exclude the tests which probably faile cause they check code that needs to be fixed, run:

pybot --pythonpath .:lib --variable backEndHost:<your-BE-hostname> --exclude "to-be-fixed" tests/
