Instructions

Host preparation

On the bare metal host:

Note: don't do it from /root folder - it will break build image mounts and fail to run

dnf install -y git make
cd /home/test
git clone https://github.com/openshift/assisted-test-infra.git

When using this infra for the first time on a host, run:

make setup

This will install required packages, configure libvirt, pull relevant Docker images, and start Minikube.

Usage

There are different options to use test-infra, which can be found in the makefile.

Adding a new e2e flow

Documentation about guidelines on how to create a new e2e test can be found here

Full flow cases

The following is a list of stages that will be run:

1. Start Minikube if not started yet
2. Deploy services for assisted deployment on Minikube
3. Create cluster in assisted-service service
4. Download ISO image
5. Spawn required number of VMs from downloaded ISO with parameters that can be configured by OS environment (check makefile)
6. Wait until nodes are up and registered in assisted-service
7. Set nodes roles in assisted-service by matching VM names (worker/master)
8. Verify all nodes have required hardware to start installation
9. Install nodes
10. Download kubeconfig-noingress to build/kubeconfig
11. Waiting till nodes are in installed state, while verifying that they don't move to error state
12. Verifying cluster is in state installed
13. Download kubeconfig to build/kubeconfig

Note: Please make sure no previous cluster is running before running a new one (it will rewrite its build files).

Run full flow with install

To run the full flow, including installation:

make run deploy_nodes_with_install

Or to run it together with setup (requires sudo password):

make all

Run full flow without install

To run the flow without the installation stage:

make run deploy_nodes_with_networking

Run base flow without configuring networking

Deploy the nodes without the network configuration and without the installation stage:

make run deploy_nodes

Run full flow with ipv6

To run the flow with default IPv6 settings:

make deploy_nodes_with_install IPv4=no IPv6=yes

Redeploy nodes

make redeploy_nodes

Or:

make redeploy_nodes_with_install

Cleaning

Following sections show how to perform cleaning of test-infra environment.

Clean all include minikube

make destroy

Clean nodes only

make destroy_nodes

Delete all virsh resources

Sometimes you may need to delete all libvirt resources

make delete_all_virsh_resources

Create cluster and download ISO

make download_iso

Deploy Assisted Service and Monitoring stack

make run
make deploy_monitoring

deploy_assisted_service and Create cluster and download ISO

make download_iso_for_remote_use

start_minikube and Deploy UI and open port forwarding on port 6008, allows to connect to it from browser

make deploy_ui

Kill all open port forwarding commands, will be part of destroy target

make kill_all_port_forwardings

Test assisted-service image

make destroy run SERVICE=<image to test>

Test agent image

make destroy run AGENT_DOCKER_IMAGE=<image to test>

Test installer image or controller image

make destroy run INSTALLER_IMAGE=<image to test> CONTROLLER_IMAGE=<image to test>

Test installer, controller, assisted-service and agent images in the same flow

make destroy run INSTALLER_IMAGE=<image to test> AGENT_DOCKER_IMAGE=<image to test> SERVICE=<image to test>

Test infra image

Assisted-test-infra builds an image including all the prerequisites to handle this repository.

make image_build

In case you would like to build the image with a different assisted-service client

make image_build SERVICE=<assisted service image URL>

Test with RHSSO Authentication

To test with Authentication, the following additional environment variables are required:

export AUTH_TYPE=rhsso
export OCM_CLIENT_ID=<SSO Service Account Name>
export OCM_CLIENT_SECRET=<SSO Service Account Password>
export OCM_BASE_URL=https://api.openshift.com
export OFFLINE_TOKEN=<User token from https://cloud.redhat.com/openshift/token>

• UI is not available when Authentication is enabled.
• The PULL_SECRET variable should be taken from the same Red Hat cloud environment as defined in OCM_URL (integration, stage or production).

Single Node - Bootstrap in place with Assisted Service

To test single node bootstrap in place flow with assisted service

export PULL_SECRET='<pull secret JSON>'
export OPENSHIFT_INSTALL_RELEASE_IMAGE=<relevant release image if needed>
export NUM_MASTERS=1
make deploy_nodes_with_install

Set BIP_BUTANE_CONFIG env var to the path with butane config to be merged with bootstrap. Might be useful for promtail logging / other debug tasks

Single Node - Bootstrap in place with Assisted Service and IPv6

To test single node bootstrap in place flow with assisted service and ipv6

export PULL_SECRET='<pull secret JSON>'
export OPENSHIFT_INSTALL_RELEASE_IMAGE=<relevant release image if needed>
export NUM_MASTERS=1
make deploy_nodes_with_install IPv6=yes IPv4=no

Kind

Set DEPLOY_TARGET=kind to have a full construction of assisted-installer on top of a kubernetes cluster which is running as one podman container:

# currently it's advisable to set it throughout the entire testing session because
# tests are also using this env-var to understand the networking layout
export DEPLOY_TARGET=kind

make run deploy_nodes_with_install

You can also create the kind cluster just by doing:

make create_hub_cluster DEPLOY_TARGET=kind

On kind mode you should be able to access the UI / API via http://<host>/.

On-prem

To test on-prem in the e2e flow, two additional environment variables need to be set:

export DEPLOY_TARGET=onprem
export ASSISTED_SERVICE_HOST=<fqdn-or-ip>

Setting DEPLOY_TARGET to "onprem" configures assisted-test-infra to deploy the assisted-service using a pod on your local host.

ASSISTED_SERVICE_HOST defines where the assisted-service will be deployed. For "onprem" deployments, set it to the FQDN or IP address of the host.

Optionally, you can also provide OPENSHIFT_INSTALL_RELEASE_IMAGE and PUBLIC_CONTAINER_REGISTRIES:

export OPENSHIFT_INSTALL_RELEASE_IMAGE=quay.io/openshift-release-dev/ocp-release:4.7.0-x86_64
export PUBLIC_CONTAINER_REGISTRIES=quay.io

If you do not export the optional variables, it will run with the default specified in assisted-service/onprem-environment.

Then run the same commands described in the instructions above to execute the test.

To run the full flow:

make all

To cleanup after the full flow:

make destroy

Run operator

The current implementation installs an OCP cluster using assisted service on minikube. Afterwards, we install the assisted-service-operator on top of that cluster. The first step would be removed once we could either:

• Have an OCP cluster easily (i.e. CRC)
• Install the assisted-service operator on top of pure-k8s cluster. (At the moment there are some OCP component prerequisites)

# Deploy AI
make run deploy_nodes_with_install

# Deploy AI Operator on top of the new cluster
export KUBECONFIG=./build/kubeconfig
make deploy_assisted_operator

Clear the operator deployment

make clear_operator

Run installation with the operator

export INSTALLER_KUBECONFIG=./build/kubeconfig
export TEST_FUNC=test_kube_api_ipv4
export TEST=./src/tests/test_kube_api.py
export TEST_TEARDOWN=false
make test

Cluster-API-provider-agent

To test capi-provider e2e flow, few additional environment variables need to be set: these environment variables result a bigger minikube instance required for this flow

# The following exports are required since the capi test flow requires more resources than the default minikube deployment provides
export MINIKUBE_HOME=/home
export MINIKUBE_DISK_SIZE=100g
export MINIKUBE_RAM_MB=12288

Setup minikube with assisted-installer (kube-api enabled):

export PULL_SECRET=<your pull secret>
ENABLE_KUBE_API=true make run

Deploy capi-provider-agent and hypershift:

make deploy_capi_env

Run the test:

ENABLE_KUBE_API=true make test TEST=./src/tests/test_kube_api.py TEST_FUNC=test_capi_provider KUBECONFIG=$HOME/.kube/config

Test iPXE boot flow

To test e2e deploying and installing nodes using iPXE, run the following:

export IPXE_BOOT=true
make setup
make run
make deploy_nodes_with_install

Optional environment variables that may be set for this test

IPXE_BOOT	Boots VM hosts using iPXE if set to true, default: false

Notes:

• A containerized Python server will be used to host the iPXE scripts for each cluster. This is due to the URL of the iPXE script file hosted in the assisted-service is longer than the character limit allowed in libvirt.

Test MCE and storage

To test MCE deployed correctly with a storage driver, we should run the following:

export OLM_OPERATORS=mce,odf
export NUM_WORKERS=3
export WORKER_MEMORY=50000
export WORKER_CPU=20
export TEST_FUNC=test_mce_storage_post
make setup
make run
make deploy_nodes_with_install
export KUBECONFIG=./build/kubeconfig
export KUBECONFIG=$(find ${KUBECONFIG} -type f)
make test_parallel
