[smolder-users] bash script to run automated tests

[Michael P. <mp...@pl...>]

Someone on IRC asked me to post the shell script that I use to run an automated
test through to smolder. Here's the cleaned up version of the one I use to test
Krang (http://krang.sourceforge.net) and you can see the results at
http://smolder.plusthree.com/app/public_projects/smoke_reports/3

#!/bin/bash
TEST_ROOT=/usr/local/arcos_test

# upload the krang tests results to smolder
function krang_results_to_smolder {
    cd $TEST_ROOT
    perl -I$KRANG_ROOT/lib -I$KRANG_ROOT/lib/i686-linux smolder_smoke_signal \
            --server 'smolder.plusthree.com' \
            --project 'Krang' \
            --username 'changeme' \
            --password 'changeme' \
            --file "$KRANG_ROOT/test_run.xml" \
            --architecture "`uname -m`" \
            --platform "`cat /etc/redhat-release`"
}

# don't run the tests if we're already running
cd $TEST_ROOT
if ls tests_running 2>/dev/null
then
        echo "Tests are currently running. Exiting."
        exit
fi

# don't let another run go while we're going
touch tests_running

# needed by Krang to know how/where it's running
export KRANG_ROOT=$TEST_ROOT/krang
export KRANG_INSTANCE=test1

# get the latest Krang from SVN
cd $KRANG_ROOT
if svn update | grep 'Updated to'
then
        # stop any possible previous runs
        bin/krang_ctl stop

        # gives us a clean slate to start
        make build
        bin/krang_createdb --destroy --no_prompt test1
        bin/krang_createdb --destroy --no_prompt test2

        # run the tests
        bin/krang_ctl start
        bin/krang_test --xml > test_run.xml
        bin/krang_ctl stop

        # now send the results off to smolder
        krang_results_to_smolder
else
        echo "No updates to Krang"
fi
