OTS Distributor and OTS Worker
The ots.server.distributor and ots.worker are central to the working of OTS.
Together with the dependencies in OTS Common they are the smallest set of OTS components that provide a meaningful system.
Tests are distributed to the Worker machines which return information via Data Transport Objects.*
* When used in conjunction with the an application which communicates appropriately with Rabbit MQ
ots.server.distributor
The Distributor Sends a Task to RabbitMQ the Routing Key is the Device Group.
ots.worker
Waits for tasks from RabbitMQ. On receipt of a Task it runs a processes and sends the results back to the Worker as a Results Object.
Conductor
Conductor is a component in OTS Worker. Basically it does three things:
- Prepare the test target (e.g. device) for testing with the help of user-defined script (Custom Flasher).
- Execute testrunner-lite at Worker PC once for each test package. More details in CoOperationBetweenOtsConductorAndTestrunnerLite
- Send test results to OTS server.
RabbitMQ
The Messaging Architecture that links the Worker and the Distributor. RabbitMQ handles the Messaging and Load Balancing. It is configured so that the Worker only takes one Task at at time.
OTS Sequence Diagram
This figure represents the current state of the System. Simplifications in the response mechanisms are scheduled.
