NTFC (NuttX Test Framework for Community)
|
|
=========================================
|
|
|
|
NTFC enables automated testing for NuttX across :doc:`simulator
|
|
</platforms/sim/sim/index>`, QEMU, and real hardware via serial interface. The
|
|
framework automatically detects available applications in NuttX images and
|
|
executes applicable tests using pytest-based test cases.
|
|
|
|
The framework and official test cases are available at:
|
|
|
|
- https://github.com/apache/nuttx-ntfc
|
|
- https://github.com/apache/nuttx-ntfc-testing
|
|
|
|
Detailed documentation is available in the framework repository.
|
|
|
|
CI runtime test cases use NTFC. Configurations with an NTFC runner include:
|
|
|
|
- :doc:`risc-v/qemu-rv </platforms/risc-v/qemu-rv/index>`: ``rv-virt/citest64``
|
|
- :doc:`risc-v/qemu-rv </platforms/risc-v/qemu-rv/index>`: ``rv-virt/citest``
|
|
- :doc:`sim/sim </platforms/sim/sim/index>`: ``sim/citest``
|
|
- :doc:`arm/imx6 </platforms/arm/imx6/index>`: ``sabre-6quad/citest``
|
|
- :doc:`arm64/qemu </platforms/arm64/qemu/boards/qemu-armv8a/index>`: ``qemu-armv8a/citest``
|
|
- :doc:`arm64/qemu </platforms/arm64/qemu/boards/qemu-armv8a/index>`: ``qemu-armv8a/citest_smp``
|

|
Running a CI Test Target Locally
|
|
================================
|
|
|
|
Run NTFC from the top-level NuttX source directory. The relative paths in a
|
|
target's ``config.yaml`` file, including the NuttX configuration and image
|
|
paths, are resolved from that directory. A working NuttX build environment
|
|
and any emulator or hardware required by the target must already be available.
|
|
|
|
Create a Python 3.10 or newer virtual environment and install the NTFC and test
|
|
case versions currently used by NuttX CI:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
$ python3 -m venv ../ntfc-venv
|
|
$ . ../ntfc-venv/bin/activate
|
|
$ python -m pip install ntfc==0.0.1
|
|
$ git clone --branch release-0.0.2 --depth 1 \
|
|
https://github.com/apache/nuttx-ntfc-testing ../nuttx-ntfc-testing
|
|
|
|
Build the target in the usual way. For example, the simulator CI
|
|
configuration uses the Make build:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
$ ./tools/configure.sh sim:citest
|
|
$ make
|
|
|
|
Configurations whose ``config.yaml`` refers to ``./build/nuttx`` require an
|
|
out-of-tree CMake build instead. For example, build ``qemu-armv8a:citest``
|
|
with:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
$ cmake -B build -DBOARD_CONFIG=qemu-armv8a:citest -GNinja
|
|
$ cmake --build build
|
|
|
|
Then pass the test case checkout and the target's NTFC configuration files to
|
|
NTFC. For ``sim:citest`` this is:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
$ python -m ntfc test \
|
|
--testpath=../nuttx-ntfc-testing \
|
|
--confpath=boards/sim/sim/sim/configs/citest/config.yaml \
|
|
--jsonconf=boards/sim/sim/sim/configs/citest/session.json
|
|
|
|
For another target, replace the build target and both configuration paths with
|
|
the files from that target's ``configs/<configuration>`` directory. NTFC
|
|
selects the applicable tests from the NuttX configuration and image and stores
|
|
the test results under ``result/`` by default.
|
|
|
|
NTFC exports test logs as CI artifacts. This allows test logs (including
|
|
:doc:`ostest </applications/testing/ostest/index>` output) to be downloaded
|
|
directly from the CI for all targets where the ``citest`` configuration is
|
|
enabled.
