Travis-ci status

https://travis-ci.org/spiceqa/tp-spice.svg?branch=master

Howto start

Before start, update run.cfg file and add something like this to the end:

only RHEL.7.1.x86_64..role-guest, RHEL.6.7.i386..role-client

This is done automatically for Beaker task spice-qe-tests

This is tests provider from SPICE QE

http://virt-test.readthedocs.org/en/latest/basic/TestProviders.html

Test files can be at any directory. Avocado-VT will be able to find it.

virtio-win

Windows should be provided with virtio-drivers to use: virtio_blk, virtio_scsi, virtio_net. You can find virtio-win package at brewweb.

# rpm -qf /usr/share/virtio-win/virtio-win-1.7.4.iso
virtio-win-1.7.4-1.el6_6.noarch

Vista drivers for Unattended install http://www.scribd.com/doc/17471845/FireGeier-Unattended-Vista-Guide-2#scribd

# Windows
drvload vioscsi.inf
drvload viostor.inf
drvload BALLOON.INF
drvload NETKVM.INF
drvload VIORNG.INF
drvload VIOSER.INF
pnputil -i -a .inf

# dism /image:d:\ /add-driver
/driver:e:\virtio\amd64\win2008\viostor.inf

# NETCFG -WINPE to install the WinPE network stack

Code notes

print "1:" + str(params.get("os_variant"))
print "2:" + str(guest_vm.params.get("os_variant"))

Result is different:

1:None
2:rhel7

SSL Information

Certificates are generated at VM start. Place is:

virttest/qemu_vm.py
if optget("spice_ssl") == "yes":
utils_misc.create_x509_dir(prefix, c_subj, s_subj, passwd,
                                              secure)

To check subject of cert:

openssl x509 -in /tmp/spice_x509d/server-cert.pem -noout -text | grep Subject
        Subject: C=CZ, L=BRNO, O=SPICE, CN=10.34.72.94

Client tests

Directory client-tests contains tests for RV user interface. This tests are copied to client VM and are run inside client VM.
