<div>= KVM-Autotest To-Do list =<br />
<br />
== Framework ==<br />
<br />
* <s>Verify MD5 sum of ISO image before starting a VM</s> [Michael] [DONE]<br />
* <s>Enable multiple user controlled port redirections (with -redir)</s> [Michael] [DONE]<br />
* <s>Implement functions to translate VM ports and addresses (e.g. VM.get_port(), VM.get_address())</s> [Michael] [DONE]<br />
* Support TAP networking with a user specified MAC address for each NIC [Michael]<br />
* <s>Add <tt>display</tt> parameter to enable user control of the QEMU display method (VNC/SDL/nographic)</s> [Michael] [DONE]<br />
* Implement VM.clone() -- to be used by tests that need to add new VMs by themselves [Michael]<br />
* kickstart installation support<br />
* kvm-autotest auto resolve qemu-kvm backtraces<br />
* <s>Make sure ppm_utils.image_crop() handles bad input properly</s> [Michael] [DONE]<br />
* Enable tests to modify a VM's params (while it's down) [Michael]<br />
* Make tests shorter by using small utility functions that fail a test and display a failure message [Michael]<br />
* <s>Improve the stepmaker data naming system (e.g. name PPM files according to their MD5 sums)</s> [Michael] [DONE]<br />
* Redirect guest monitor to serial and capture guest error messages written to console. Log the errors and also scan for specific problems (e.g. oops)<br />
* Support an "expected to fail" param (at least in our html report)<br />
* Log a gdb-backtrace for tests (executables) which generate a core dump file.<br />
* Enable "guest-load" for a VMs before/while tests are running (e.g. migration of a VM, while a movie is playing on it) [Michael]<br />
* Add support for kvm-trace.<br />
* Fail upon indentation/white-space problems in the configuration file<br />
* Add a way to shutdown the VMs when the whole job completes (compared to doing nothing or shutting-down after every test) [Michael]<br />
* <s>Implement <tt>include</tt> functionality in the config file parser</s> [Michael] [DONE]<br />
* <s>Implement kvm_spawn.get_command_status_output() to make sending SSH commands easier</s> [Michael] [DONE]<br />

* Support running user specified pre-job, post-job, pre-test and post-test scripts [Michael]<br />
* <s>Make Step Editor accept a filename command line argument</s> [Michael] [DONE]<br />
* <s>When running step files, detect frozen (stuck) guests even in the presence of a blinking cursor</s> [Michael] [DONE]<br />
* Support running tests in parallel with multiple queues for each host [Michael]<br />
* Automatically convert PPM images in debug dirs to PNG format to save space [Michael]<br />
* Automatically assign a UUID to a VM (use the '-uuid' QEMU parameter). Once assigned, should be used in all dependent tests.<br />
* Automatically assign a MAC address to a NIC. Once assigned, should be used in all dependent tests.<br />
* <s>Allow run_bg to track a child process's stdin and stderr even after the parent process has exited; achieved by merging run_bg with kvm_spawn</s> [Michael] [DONE]<br />
<br />
<br />

<div>= KVM-Autotest To-Do list =<br />
<br />
== Framework ==<br />
<br />
* <s>Verify MD5 sum of ISO image before starting a VM</s> [DONE]<br />
* <s>Enable multiple user controlled port redirections (with -redir)</s> [DONE]<br />
* <s>Implement functions to translate VM ports and addresses (e.g. VM.get_port(), VM.get_address())</s> [DONE]<br />
* Support TAP networking with a user specified MAC address for each NIC<br />
* <s>Add <tt>display</tt> parameter to enable user control of the QEMU display method (VNC/SDL/nographic)</s> [DONE]<br />
* Implement VM.clone() -- to be used by tests that need to add new VMs by themselves<br />
* kickstart installation support<br />
* kvm-autotest auto resolve qemu-kvm backtraces<br />
* <s>Make sure ppm_utils.image_crop() handles bad input properly</s> [DONE]<br />
* Enable tests to modify a VM's params (while it's down)<br />

* <s>Improve the stepmaker data naming system (e.g. name PPM files according to their MD5 sums)</s> [DONE]<br />
* Redirect guest monitor to serial and capture guest error messages written to console. Log the errors and also scan for specific problems (e.g. oops)<br />
* Support an "expected to fail" param (at least in our html report)<br />
* Log a gdb-backtrace for tests (executables) which generate a core dump file.<br />
* Enable "guest-load" for a VMs before/while tests are running (e.g. migration of a VM, while a movie is playing on it)<br />
* Add support for kvm-trace.<br />
* Fail upon indentation/white-space problems in the configuration file<br />
* Add a way to shutdown the VMs when the whole job completes (compared to doing nothing or shuting-down after every test).<br />
* Implement <tt>include</tt> functionality in the config file parser<br />
<br />
<br />
== Tests ==<br />
<br />
* Find out how to use Autotest's netperf test with guests<br />
* If needed, write a netperf/iperf test<br />
* Write a time drift test (pic/apic/pm_timer)<br />
* Write a test which adds VMs until one of them becomes unresponsive, and records the maximum number of VMs successfully started.<br />
* cpu hotplug - Glauber<br />
* pci net hot plug -Glauber<br />
* pci block hot plug -Glauber<br />
* <s>s3 hibernation - Gleb</s> [DONE]<br />
* tap networking<br />
* pxe boot * net types<br />
* qcow1, qcow2, vmdk, vhd<br />
* qcow2 internal snapshots<br />
* <s>Run autotest tests inside Linux guest</s> [ALREADY DONE]<br />
* Further migration<br />
* Multiple nics<br />
* ksm<br />
* -vga stg, nographics<br />
* kvm unit-tests<br />
* Add unattended guest installations (using kickstart or answer-files)<br />

* Stable tsc test - http://people.redhat.com/mingo/time-warp-test/MINI-HOWTO<br />
* Guest installation with pv-block device/driver (for both windows and Linux)<br />
<br />
== Misc ==<br />
<br />
* Goal -- get accepted into upstream autotest<br />
* Add docstrings to all functions that still lack them, including the ones in stepmaker.py, stepeditor.py and kvm_tests.py<br />
* Add module headers and docstrings<br />
* Document the setupssh.iso and setuptelnet.iso creation procedures in the wiki<br />
* Rename all Windows ISOs currently used to their official MSDN names<br />
* <s>Move Windows-setup iso images into the windows directory.</s> [DONE]<br />
* Share all the stepmaker data somehow so other people can debug stepfiles<br />
