OTS 0.8.x installation RPM

These instructions have been tested with Fedora 13. Execute commands as root.

In MeeGo netbook, at least following packages needs to be installed manually: 

python-amqp, python-django, minixsv, rabbitmq-server

Network Setup

Using static IP addresses on all OTS machines is strongly recommended. It is possible to setup the system also with dynamic IP addresses but it might cause problems every now and then because IP's and hostnames change.

Note All OTS machines need to be able to access other OTS machines based on their hostname.

How to check that DNS names are correct:

1. Check OTS server's hostname 

hostname

2. Ping the OTS server's hostname from the OTS worker 

ping <hostname>

If ping fails, add manually OTS server's hostname to OTS workers /etc/hosts file 

<IP> <hostname>

Preparation

There are two ways of getting OTS binary packages: from the source code or from the MeeGo Tools:Testing repository. From the repository you can get the stable version and from the source code the development version.

  • Add Tools:Testing source to /etc/yum.repos.d/ 
cd /etc/yum.repos.d/
yum install wget nano
wget http://download.meego.com/live/Tools:/Testing/Fedora13/Tools:Testing.repo
  • Update the repositories 
yum check-update

Build packages from source (optional)

  • Install git core 
yum install git-core
  • Get sources 
git clone git://gitorious.org/meego-quality-assurance/ots.git
  • List tags 
git tag -l
  • Checkout the latest tag 
git checkout <tag_name>
  • Get building tools 
yum install rpm-build python-setuptools
  • Build packages 
mv ots python-ots-0.8.x
tar czf python-ots-0.8.x.tar.gz python-ots-0.8.x
rpmbuild -tb python-ots-0.8.x.tar.gz

OTS server installation

  • Install dependencies 
yum install Django python-amqplib python-configobj rabbitmq-server test-definition
easy_install minixsv
yum install python-setuptools
  • Install OTS server components 
yum install python-ots-common python-ots-results python-ots-server

or if you are using own built packages 

rpm -i ...
  • Add rabbitmq to start on boot 
chkconfig --add rabbitmq-server
chkconfig rabbitmq-server on
  • Start rabbitmq server 
/etc/init.d/rabbitmq-server start
  • Configure OTS server settings 
sudo nano /etc/ots/server.conf

Recommended to change following: 

'example_sw_product', example to 'meego_product'
'devicegroup', example to 'meego_n900'
  • Install OTS server plug-ins

See plug-ins from OTS Plug-ins

  • Start OTS server 
ots_server

OTS worker installation

  • Install dependencies 
yum install python-amqplib testrunner-lite
  • Install OTS worker packages 
yum install python-ots-common python-ots-worker
  • Configure OTS worker settings 
sudo nano /etc/ots/worker.conf

Change 'devicegroup', example meego_n900

Change 'host' to server's address

  • Start OTS worker (as root) 
ots_worker

NOTE: if worker failed to start up with error like "socket.error: [Errno 113] No route to host", check that ots-worker is able to connect to ots-server

OTS tools

Tools are used for triggering test runs from the command line.

  • Install OTS tools 
yum install python-ots-tools
  • Trigger a test run 
ots_trigger -s localhost:8080 -b test_build -i http://url_to_image -p example_sw_product -e test@man.com
  • Kickstart file for automation can be found from 
http://meego.gitorious.org/meego-quality-assurance/enables-automated-testing/blobs/ks/meego-n900-autotest.ks
  • You need to build the image with mic-image-creator with parameters: 
--save-kernel --package=tar.gz

How to install N900 automation tools to OTS worker

  • Install dependencies 
yum install meego-ai-flaster eat-host
  • Get N900 flasher from the Nokia's tablets-dev portal 
http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/maemo-dev-env-downloads.php?f=maemo_flasher-3.5_2.5.2.2.tar.gz
Compile the flasher
  • Configure conductor to use rpm and fetch /var/log/messages 
sudo nano /etc/ots/conductor.conf
  • Test manually that everything is OK, this is executed in the worker 
sudo conductor -u <image url>
  • Start OTS worker 
sudo ots_worker
