B@D Reference Test Cases (5/5)

These instructions provide some Example Tests and Test Cases you can use to validate your CIP Board-at-Desk Single-Developer (B@D) Virtual Machine (VM) or from which, you can learn how all of the tooling works together.

This set of instructions assumes you have already connected the board to the machine where you have installed B@D. If that is not the case please go back to the Beaglebone Black Setup & Configuration wiki page or Renesas IWG20M depending on the board you are using, which is step 3.

It is also assumed you have already created an initramfs with BusyBox for the board, that is step 4. If that is not the case, please go back to the wiki page where the creation is explained.

If you have a kernel that you have built on another machine that you wish to test with B@D please refer to Test 6.

Note that if you are using the latest version of B@D with LAVA 2018-4 or greater (LAVA version is checkable by clicking the Help button and examining the header of that Help page) then see Version specific information

Test #8: Testing Externally Built Kernels

Prerequisites:

  • A working CIP Board-at-Desk Single-Developer (B@D) Virtual Machine
  • A board on which to test that kernel.
  • A defined device and device dictionary for the new device. Copy the dictionary entry into /etc/lava-server/dispatcher-config/devices (see /vagrant/integration-scripts/configure_lava.sh for examples).

Procedure:

  • Copy the kernel associated files and ramdisk onto the Virtual Machine. This can be done either by putting the files in a subdirectory of board-at-desk-single-dev in which case they will end up as a subdirectory of /vagrant. Or use
         vagrant scp $PATH_TO/kernelFiles.tgz :kernelFiles.tgz  
  • Move the files into a single directory within /var/www/images/kernel-ci. So, for example, if testing the Renesas iwg20m, create /var/www/images/kernel-ci/renesas/iwg20m.
  • Then in your health check reference the files as http://localhost/renesas/iwg20m/uImage etc..

LAVA 2018-4

With this version of LAVA, in the above test cases, replace any of the following sequences:

Click on Scheduler and then select All Devices.
Click on the BoardName Hostname
Click the Force Health Check button.

With:

 In Administration scroll down to Devices and select it, tick the appropriate device and then in the Action pull down select 'Update health of selected devices to Unknown' and click the 'Go' button.
 

If a test file has been generated and you wish to replace the default health check then copy it as below:

 
 vagrant@guest:~$ sudo cp testFileName.yaml /etc/lava-server/dispatcher-config/health-checks/DeviceName.yaml
 

So for the supported devices replace DeviceName with beaglebone-black.yaml or renesas-iwg20m.yaml as appropriate.

If you wish to just test then use the lavacli instructions, replacing the file with your appropriate test.
