High enhancement 1.6 M5 1596 5615 1 bluelightning sstncr alexandru.c.georgescu cristian.iorga dvhart sgw srifenbark sstncr tom.zanussi --- --- Done (doc changes complete) oldest_to_newest 39154 0 bluelightning 2013-11-29 18:26:19 +0000 For the automated testing, in order to deploy test images onto the hardware so we can boot into them, we need a "known good" image (referred to here as a "master" image) that we can first boot into in a separate partition, then interact with in order to deploy the image to be tested. This should be straightforward - we just need to send the image over ssh and extract/copy it onto the test partition. Thus this task involves: 1. Adding a recipe for a "master" image 2. Writing some code to interact with it to deploy the test image 3. Providing a means of setting up the partition layout, presumably using wic. 41949 1 sstncr 2014-03-31 10:00:06 +0000 Patches on the ML. Some notes: 1 and 3 - have been combined (wic wasn't used for now) - the partition layout is done from the installer thus the master image recipe. 2 - code for TEST_TARGET = "GummibootTarget" exists, that works for EFI hardware only. Other BSP will probably need to subclass that and adapt for their bootloaders. 42146 2 sstncr 2014-04-02 10:40:52 +0000 Related to master image: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=a4447e365026b6f1af74b48a4fbd5059c05afdbd http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=2764a40093644595cad9c095fb344912f9dc60fa Deploy/test for EFI targets: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=397225996446ac91c5623972f2ca5c8b3a17c31e Next on the list is to get some documentation written so I can send something to Scott. 42648 3 bluelightning 2014-04-14 13:10:24 +0000 I think we can mark this one as resolved for 1.6. If we have further enhancements we can add additional enhancement bugs to cover them. 42686 4 srifenbark 2014-04-15 21:51:19 +0000 What about the doc component for this release? Is there something we need to cover? Scott 42690 5 bluelightning 2014-04-16 08:39:07 +0000 Documentation should be covered by the automated testing additions that we did. We might want to add core-image-testmaster to the list of images in ref-images.xml though. 42713 6 srifenbark 2014-04-17 13:56:12 +0000 Hi, See http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.6/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#ref-images for the list of images. I have added the core-image-testmaster image to the list. I need the description reviewed and approved before I can turn the doc flag on this bug. Scott 42714 7 bluelightning 2014-04-17 14:22:54 +0000 For the description could we say this instead: A "master" image designed to be used for automated runtime testing. Provides a "known good" image that is deployed to a separate partition so that you can boot into it and use it to deploy a second image to be tested. It may also be good to finish with a "more information" link to the automated runtime testing section as well. 42720 8 srifenbark 2014-04-17 19:22:02 +0000 Hi Paul, I have implemented your suggestion. You can see the change at http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.6/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#ref-images. I am marking this documentation flag to "Done". Scott
