VINYLTEST(1) General Commands Manual VINYLTEST(1) NAME vinyltest - Test program for Vinyl Cache SYNOPSIS vinyltest [-hikLlqv] [-b size] [-D name=val] [-j jobs] [-n iter] [-t duration] file [file ...] DESCRIPTION The vinyltest program is a script driven program used to test the Vinyl Cache. The vinyltest program, when started and given one or more script files, can create a number of threads representing backends, some threads rep- resenting clients, and a vinyld process. This is then used to simulate a transaction to provoke a specific behavior. The following options are available: -b size Set internal buffer size (default: 1M) -D name=val Define macro for use in scripts -h Show help -i Set PATH and vmod_path to find Vinyl Cache binaries in build tree -j jobs Run this many tests in parallel -k Continue on test failure -L Always leave temporary vtc.* -l Leave temporary vtc.* if test fails -n iterations Run tests this many times -p name=val Pass parameters to all vinyld command lines -q Quiet mode: report only failures -t duration Time tests out after this long (default: 60s) -v Verbose mode: always report test log file File to use as a script If TMPDIR is set in the environment, vinyltest creates temporary vtc.* directories for each test in $TMPDIR, otherwise in /tmp. SCRIPTS The vtc syntax is documented at length in vtc(7). Should you want more examples than the one below, you can have a look at the Vinyl Cache source code repository, under bin/vinyltest/tests/, where all the re- gression tests for Vinyl Cache are kept. An example: vinyltest "#1029" server s1 { rxreq expect req.url == "/bar" txresp -gzipbody {[bar]} rxreq expect req.url == "/foo" txresp -body {<h1>FOO<esi:include src="/bar"/>BARF</h1>} } -start vinyl v1 -vcl+backend { sub vcl_backend_response { set beresp.do_esi = true; if (bereq.url == "/foo") { set beresp.ttl = 0s; } else { set beresp.ttl = 10m; } } } -start client c1 { txreq -url "/bar" -hdr "Accept-Encoding: gzip" rxresp gunzip expect resp.bodylen == 5 txreq -url "/foo" -hdr "Accept-Encoding: gzip" rxresp expect resp.bodylen == 21 } -run When run, the above script will simulate a server (s1) that expects two different requests. It will start a vinyld (v1) and add the backend de- finition to the VCL specified (-vcl+backend). Finally it starts the c1-client, which is a single client sending two requests. TESTING A BUILD TREE Whether you are building a VMOD or trying to use one that you freshly built, you can tell vinyltest to pass a vmod_path to vinyld instances started using the vinyl -start command in your test case: vinyltest -p vmod_path=... /path/to/*.vtc This way you can use the same test cases on both installed and built VMODs: server s1 {...} -start vinyl v1 -vcl+backend { import wossname; ... } -start ... You are not limited to the vmod_path and can pass any parameter, allow- ing you to run a build matrix without changing the test suite. You can achieve the same with macros, but then they need to be defined on each run. You can see the actual vinyld command lines in test outputs, they look roughly like this: exec vinyld [vinyltest -p params] [testing params] [vtc -arg params] Parameters you define with vinyltest -p may be overridden by parameters needed by vinyltest to run properly, and they may in turn be overridden by parameters set in test scripts. There's also a special mode in which vinyltest builds itself a PATH and a vmod_path in order to find Vinyl Cache binaries (programs and VMODs) in the build tree surrounding the vinyltest binary. This is meant for testing of Vinyl Cache under development and will disregard your vmod_path if you set one. If you need to test your VMOD against a Vinyl Cache build tree, you must install it first, in a temp directory for instance. With informa- tion provided by the installation's pkg-config(1) you can build a proper PATH in order to access Vinyl programs, and a vmod_path to ac- cess both your VMOD and the built-in VMODs: export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/path/to/install/lib/pkgconfig BINDIR="$(pkg-config --variable=bindir vinylapi)" SBINDIR="$(pkg-config --variable=sbindir vinylapi)" PATH="SBINDIR:BINDIR:$PATH" VMODDIR="$(pkg-config --variable=vmoddir vinylapi)" VMOD_PATH="/path/to/your/vmod/build/dir:$VMODDIR" vinyltest -p vmod_path="$VMOD_PATH" ...
