* Generate autotest API documentation with tools such as doxygen
* Hotplug tests during migration
* Work on setting up the conmux server for our internal test grid
* Research how to trigger jobs based on events rather than using the web interface setting recurrent jobs
* Set up a qemu-block job, with kwolf's qemu-block tree
* Set up a vhost job, with the upstream job (mst's trees for kernel and userspace)
* Add a BLOCKED status on the autotest database, that tells the user that some feature testing was left out due to a problem on its dependencies.
* Eventually get rid of all dependency on slirp/userspace networking to do any feature testing, since it is not a supported feature. Slipstreaming the kickstart in the install CD is a possibility, and it ends up being simpler than configuring an internal network thing for testing.
* Make it possible to install virtio nw driver under windows xp/2003 guests without having to resort to the msi installer

* Infrastructure for testing different vm storage backends: file/lvm/iSCSI - Done by Beijing team
* Made some internal patches appropriate for upstream
* Copy kvm-autotest@redhat.com on the email list of results
* Send code to retrieve host kernels based on koji/brew tags upstream
* Resolved UUID mount point check problem
* QMP suite integrated upstream
* Wrote code to retrieve kernels based on koji/brew tags

* Post-commit review of new network patches (committed on Oct 7 2010)
* Use more exceptions in utility functions:
** Add convenience functions to kvm_subprocess.py to make running shell commands shorter
** Add convenience functions to the VM class
* Refactor _get_command_output() and friends in kvm_monitor.py and add cmd_raw(), cmd_obj() and cmd_qmp() as required by Luiz Capitulino's test suite
* Use select() instead of sleep() in kvm_monitor.py
* Simplify migration code if possible (in kvm_vm.py and kvm_test_utils.py)
* Fix VM.get_ifname() somehow (uses self.vnc_port -- bad)

KVM-Autotest TODO list

raw idea

  • more vhost_net test
  • Add Multi-guests transfer test
  • transfer test between guest(s) and extra boxs
  • add more whql tests (virtio_net,virtio_blk)

general

Note: This session is for major, multi-person items. We'll update the status weekly based on the status of the subtasks attributed to persons.

lmr

TODO

Done

mgoldish

  • Make WHQL tests run on our internal server
  • Enable "guest-load" for a VMs before/while tests are running (e.g. migration of a VM, while a movie is playing on it)
    • This may just be a matter of moving useful code from tests to kvm_test_utils.py to make it reusable

done

akong

  • push redhat internal kvm subtests(more than 18) to upstream

hdparm.py cpuflags.py multi_disk.py nmi_watchdog.py qmp_command.py qmp_event_notification.py cdrom.py fillup_disk.py floppy.py format_disk.py lvm.py usb.py ... [doing..] stop_continue.py[review..] image_copy.py module_probe.py[done]

jason

  • Port network tests into windows
  • Profiler of pidstat
  • guest->guest guest->host netperf support
  • More readable test result of netperf

yolkfull

  • Run netperf test between two guests
  • Migration with/without workload(dbench,lmbench etc)
  • Verify SMBIOS/DMI data (UUID, for example)
  • Disk serial number (for IDE, SCSI, VirtIO drives)

Beijing QE

  • pxe boot * net types
  • Further migration
  • Multiple nics
  • multiple disks
  • Test block device cancellation path using device mapper to generate errors ( after we had a crash in de_write_dma_cb)
  • Extend pci_assignable to support other PCI devices (USB, video cards, TV card etc)
  • Different CPU flags support
  • Passthrough the perf keys of run_autotest to autotest server
  • Register the virtual machine into autotest server and run benchmark through autotest server
