Testing the tape-gateway

This Twiki page was primarily created to document the concrete evidence that the tape-gateway daemon is fit for release onto c2repack. This page is divided into two sections, the description of the tests and actual test results.

Description of tests

This section describes the tests which must be carried out on the tape-gateway in order to decide whether or not it is fit for production. This section should not contain any ambiguities. From reading the description of a test, a CASTOR developer or operator should know why they are carrying out the test, how it should be done and the results they should expect.

Each test is documented as a text file in the trunk of the CASTOR svn repository. This means the tests can be continually improved and “testers” can browse then them using the web interface to svn.

The documentation of each test uses the following 7 section headings as a template:

  • THE NAME OF TEST
  • THE PURPOSE OF THE TEST
  • THE PREREQUISITES OF THE TEST
  • INSTRUCTIONS DESCRIBING HOW TO SET UP THE ENVIRONMENT OF THE TEST
  • INSTRUCTIONS DESCRIBING HOW TO CARRY OUT THE TEST
  • EXPECTED RESULTS
  • INSTRUCTIONS DESCRIBING HOW TO TEAR DOWN THE ENVIRONMENT OF THE TEST
