# Testing Standards in K3s
|
|
|
|
Go testing in K3s comes in 3 forms: Unit, Integration, and End-to-End (E2E). This
|
|
document will explain *when* each test should be written and *how* each test should be
|
|
generated, formatted, and run.
|
|
|
|
Note: all shell commands given are relateive to the root k3s repo directory.
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Unit Tests
|
|
|
|
Unit tests should be written when a component or function of a package needs testing.
|
|
Unit tests should be used for "white box" testing.
|
|
|
|
### Framework
|
|
|
|
All unit tests in K3s follow a [Table Driven Test](https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/TableDrivenTests) style. Specifically, K3s unit tests are automatically generated using the [gotests](https://github.com/cweill/gotests) tool. This is built into the Go vscode extension, has documented integrations for other popular editors, or can be run via command line. Additionally, a set of custom templates are provided to extend the generated test's functionality. To use these templates, call:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
gotests --template_dir=<PATH_TO_K3S>/contrib/gotests_templates
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or in vscode, edit the Go extension setting `Go: Generate Tests Flags`
|
|
and add `--template_dir=<PATH_TO_K3S>/contrib/gotests_templates` as an item.
|
|
|
|
To facilitate unit test creation, see `tests/util/runtime.go` helper functions.
|
|
|
|
### Format
|
|
|
|
All unit tests should be placed within the package of the file they test.
|
|
All unit test files should be named: `<FILE_UNDER_TEST>_test.go`.
|
|
All unit test functions should be named: `Test_Unit<FUNCTION_TO_TEST>` or `Test_Unit<RECEIVER>_<METHOD_TO_TEST>`.
|
|
See the [etcd unit test](https://github.com/k3s-io/k3s/blob/master/pkg/etcd/etcd_test.go) as an example.
|
|
|
|
### Running
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
go test ./pkg/... -run Unit
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note: As unit tests call functions directly, they are the primary drivers of K3s's code coverage
|
|
metric.
|
|
|

|
|
|
## Integration Tests
|
|
|
|
Integration tests should be used to test a specific functionality of k3s that exists across multiple Go packages, either via exported function calls, or more often, CLI comands.
|
|
Integration tests should be used for "black box" testing.
|
|
|
|
### Framework
|
|
|
|
All integration tests in K3s follow a [Behavior Diven Development (BDD)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Behavior-driven_development) style. Specifically, K3s uses [Ginkgo](https://onsi.github.io/ginkgo/) and [Gomega](https://onsi.github.io/gomega/) to drive the tests.
|
|
To generate an initial test, the command `ginkgo bootstrap` can be used.
|
|
|
|
To facilitate K3s CLI testing, see `tests/util/cmd.go` helper functions.
|
|
|
|
### Format
|
|
|
|
Integration tests can be placed in two areas:
|
|
|
|
1. Next to the go package they intend to test.
|
|
2. In `tests/integration/` for package agnostic testing.
|
|
|
|
Package specific integration tests should use the `<PACKAGE_UNDER_TEST>_test` package.
|
|
Package agnostic integration tests should use the `integration` package.
|
|
All integration test files should be named: `<TEST_NAME>_int_test.go`
|
|
All integration test functions should be named: `Test_Integration<Test_Name>`.
|
|
See the [etcd snapshot test](https://github.com/k3s-io/k3s/blob/master/pkg/etcd/etcd_int_test.go) as a package specific example.
|
|
See the [local storage test](https://github.com/k3s-io/k3s/blob/master/tests/integration/localstorage_int_test.go) as a package agnostic example.
|
|
|
|
### Running
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
go test ./pkg/... ./tests/... -run Integration
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
___
|
|
|
|
## End-to-End (E2E) Tests
|
|
|
|
End-to-end tests utilize [Ginkgo](https://onsi.github.io/ginkgo/) and [Gomega](https://onsi.github.io/gomega/) like the integration tests, but rely on separate testing utilities and are self-contained within the `test/e2e` directory. E2E tests cover complete K3s single and multi-cluster configuration and administration: bringup, update, teardown etc.
|
|
E2E tests are run nightly as part of K3s quality assurance (QA).
|
|
|
|
### Format
|
|
|
|
All E2E tests should be placed under the `e2e` package.
|
|
All E2E test functions should be named: `Test_E2E<TEST_NAME>`.
|
|
See the [upgrade cluster test](https://github.com/k3s-io/k3s/blob/master/tests/e2e/upgradecluster_test.go) as an example.
|
|
|
|
### Running
|
|
|
|
Generally, E2E tests are run as a nightly Jenkins job for QA. They can still be run locally but additional setup may be required.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
go test ./tests/... -run E2E
|
|
```
|
|

|
## Contributing New Or Updated Tests
|
|
|
|
___
|
|
We gladly accept new and updated tests of all types. If you wish to create
|
|
a new test or update an existing test, please submit a PR with a title that includes the words `<NAME_OF_TEST> (Created/Updated)`.
