LXD continous integration tooling

Running tests locally

To run a test locally (directly where you invoke it), use the bin/local-run helper:

./bin/local-run tests/interception latest/edge

For faster repeated runs, you might want to tell snap that it can purge the LXD snap without taking any snapshot:

export PURGE_LXD=1
./bin/local-run tests/interception latest/edge

Note: if you need to run tests on temporary machines, Testflinger reservations might be useful.

Running tests on OpenStack (ProdStack)

The tests need to be run from PS6's LXD bastion lxd-bastion-ps6.internal. Once connected, the proper environment can be loaded with:

pe

Then to run all the tests on OpenStack VMs:

./tests/main-openstack

Or to run individual tests (tests/pylxd against latest/edge):

# bin/openstack-run: <serie> <kernel> <test> <args>
./bin/openstack-run jammy default tests/pylxd latest/edge

Running Dell PowerFlex VM storage tests

To run the VM storage tests on the Dell PowerFlex driver, provide the following environment variables:

• POWERFLEX_POOL: Name of the PowerFlex storage pool
• POWERFLEX_DOMAIN: Name of the PowerFlex domain
• POWERFLEX_GATEWAY: Address of the PowerFlex HTTP gateway
• POWERFLEX_GATEWAY_VERIFY: Whether to verify the HTTP gateway's certificate. The default is true.
• POWERFLEX_USER: Name of the PowerFlex user
• POWERFLEX_PASSWORD: Password of the PowerFlex user

Infrastructure managed by IS

The PS6 environment has inbound and outbound firewalling applied at the network edge. In order to access some external sites here are the firewall rules we added to firewall maintained by IS:

Some HTTP(S) destination also require going through a proxy maintained by IS, here are the proxy rules we added:
