Is there a straightforward way when using ctest to get the number of tests passed (and/or failed) within a script, e.g., BASH, without grep-ping through a generated output file?
a straightforward way ... without grep-ping
No, I believe there is not.
You can also "grep" the count the lines Test failed. and Test passed. from CMake the_build_dir/Testing/Temporary/LastTest.log.
You could potentially generate ctest XML report to a dashboard and then parse the XML reports (instead of sending them). It's nowhere as straightforward, as ctest script has to be written that configures, builds and tests the project and then separate XML tool needs to parse the result.
You can also run a cdash server and let that ctest script upload the results to cdash and then query cdash server with simple curl 'https://your.cdash.server/api/v1/index.php?project=TheProjectName' | jq '.buildgroups[] | select(.id == 2).builds[] | { "pass": .test.pass, "fail": .test.fail, }. The querying is simple, but.. it needs to run a cdash server and also test with ctest script, it's not near straightforward..
Btw, it's easy to get the number of failed tests - it's just wc -l the_build_dir/Testing/Temporary/LastTestsFailed.log.

I'm using gcov and I'd like to gather coverage results on a per test case basis.
QUESTION
When I execute the googletest executable, is it possible to pass in an argument on command line that says execute only the Nth test case?
I'd even be ok with passing in the name of the fixture+case; I can just use Python with regex to pull out all the tests.
Obviously I can accomplish the same thing by having one test case per .cpp file but that sounds ... stupid.
googletest allows to run a single test case or even the subset of the tests. You can specify a filter string in the GTEST_FILTER environment variable or in the --gtest_filter command line option and googletest will only run the tests whose full names (in the form of TestSuiteName.TestName) match the filter. More information about the format of the filter string can be found in Running a Subset of the Tests section. Also googletest supports --gtest_list_tests command line option to print the list of all test cases. It can be useful in your case.
How can I run a binary cgi file on the command line and provide GET parameters to it?
I understand this task may be straightforward for perl or php files, but I've got a binary cgi file and no documentation for it. I'd like to run it without a web server so that I can evaluate certain problems on some co-workers' machines.
I've tried the following, but to no avail:
QUERY_STRING="foo=bar" ./myfile.cgi
foo=bar ./myfile.cgi
./myfile.cgi foo=bar
./myfile.cgi <<< "foo=bar"
In each case, the script outputs Error in form found<br>Missing foo<br><b></b><br>. (When executed through apache on our server, it returns no error message, only the intended results.)
Specifying the environment variable REQUEST_METHOD=GET in addition to QUERY_STRING=... makes the difference.
Among the tokens output by strings myfile.cgi, there were a number of cgi-related variables which the web server might be expected to set, such as REMOTE_ADDR, SERVER_SOFTWARE, and SERVER_PROTOCOL, but the two aforementioned variables proved enough to get this executable to produce a non-error output.
(For a POST, I've read that the body/params are read from stdin, but I haven't substantiated that personally.)
When defining a Bamboo plan variable, the page has this.
For task configuration fields, use the syntax
${bamboo.myvariablename}. For inline scripts, variables are exposed as
shell environment variables which can be accessed using the syntax
$BAMBOO_MY_VARIABLE_NAME (Linux/Mac OS X) or %BAMBOO_MY_VARIABLE_NAME%
(Windows).
However, that doesn't work in my Linux inline script. For example, I have the following defined a a plan variable
name: my_plan_var value: some_string
My inline script is simply...
PLAN_VAR=$BAMBOO_MY_PLAN_VAR
echo "Plan var: $PLAN_VAR"
and I just get a blank string.
I've tried this
PLAN_VAR=${bamboo.my_plan_var}
But I get
${bamboo.my_plan_var}: bad substitution
on the log viewer window.
Any pointers?
I tried the following and it works:
On the plan, I set my_plan_var to "it works" (w/o quotes)
In the inline script (don't forget the first line):
#/bin/sh
PLAN_VAR=$bamboo_my_plan_var
echo "testing: $PLAN_VAR"
And I got the expected result:
testing: it works
I also wanted to create a Bamboo variable and the only thing I've found to share it between scripts is with inject-variables like following:
Add to your bamboo-spec.yaml the following after your script that will create the variable:
Build:
tasks:
- script: create-bamboo-var.sh
- inject-variables:
file: bamboo-specs/vars.yaml
scope: RESULT
# namespace: plan
- script: echo ${bamboo.inject.GIT_VERSION} # just for testing
Note: Namespace defaults to inject.
In create-bamboo-var.sh create the file bamboo-specs/vars.yaml:
#!bin/bash
versionStr=$(git describe --tags --always --dirty --abbrev=4)
echo "GIT_VERSION: ${versionStr}" > ./bamboo-specs/vars.yaml
Or for multiple lines you can use:
SW_NUMBER_DIGITS=${1} # Passed as first parameter to build script
cat <<EOT > ./bamboo-specs/vars.yaml
GIT_VERSION: ${versionStr}
SW_NUMBER_APP: ${SW_NUMBER_DIGITS}
EOT
Scope can be local or result. Local means it's only available for current job and result means it can be used in subsequent stages of this plan and releases that are created from the result.
Namespace is just used to avoid naming collisions with other variables.
With the above you can use that variable in later scripts with ${bamboo.inject.GIT_VERSION}. The last script task is just to see that it is working in other scripts. You can also see the variables in the web app as build meta data.
I'm using the above script before the build (in my case compiling C-Code) takes place so I can also create a version.h file that can be used by the source code.
This is still a bit cumbersome but I'm happy with it and I hope it will help others to configure Bamboo. Bamboo documentation could be better. (Still a lot try and error)
I want to lock the user-facing command line API of my golang program by writing few anti-regression tests that would focus on testing my binary as a whole. What testing "binary as a whole" means is that go-test should:
be able to feed STDIN to my binary
be able to check that my binary produces correct STDOUT
be able to ensure that error cases are handled properly by binary
However, it is not obvious to me what is the best practice to do that in go? If there is a good go test example, could you point me to it?
P.S. in the past I have been using autotools. And I am looking for something similar to AT_CHECK, for example:
AT_CHECK([echo "XXX" | my_binary -e arg1 -f arg2], [1], [],
[-f and -e can't be used together])
Just make your main() single line:
import "myapp"
func main() {
myapp.Start()
}
And test myapp package properly.
EDIT:
For example, popular etcd conf server uses this technique: https://github.com/coreos/etcd/blob/master/main.go
I think you're trying too hard: I just tried the following
func TestMainProgram(t *testing.T) {
os.Args = []string{"sherlock",
"--debug",
"--add", "zero",
"--ruleset", "../scripts/ceph-log-filters/ceph.rules",
"../scripts/ceph-log-filters/ceph.log"}
main()
}
and it worked fine. I can make a normal tabular test or a goConvey BDD from it pretty easily...
If you really want to do such type of testing in Go, you can use Go os/exec package https://golang.org/pkg/os/exec/ to execute your binary and test it as a whole - for example, executing go run main.go command. Essentially it would be an equivalent of a shell script done in Go. You can use StdinPipe https://golang.org/pkg/os/exec/#Cmd.StdinPipe and StdouPipe/StderrPipe (https://golang.org/pkg/os/exec/#Cmd.StdoutPipe and https://golang.org/pkg/os/exec/#Cmd.StderrPipe) to feed the desired input and verify output. The examples on the package documentation page https://golang.org/pkg/os/exec/ should give you a good starting point.
However, the testing of compiled programs goes beyond the unit testing so it is worth to consider other tools (not necessarily Go-based) that more typically used for functional / acceptance testing such as Cucumber http://cucumber.io.
First of all I should point out I'm new to Atlassian's Bamboo and continuous integration in general. This is the first project where I've used either.
I've created a raft of unit tests using the tSQLt framework. I've also configured Bamboo to:
Get a fresh copy of the repository from BitBucket
Drop & re-create the build DB
Use Red-Gate SQL Compare to deploy the DB objects from source to the build DB
Run the tSQLt tests
Output the results of the tests in XML format to a file called TestResults.xml
I've checked and can confirm that the TestResults.xml file is created.
In Bamboo I then added a JUnit Parser task to consume the contents of this TestResults.xml file. However when that task runs it returns this error:
Failed to parse test result file
At first I thought it might have meant that Bamboo could not find the file. I changed the task that created the results file to output a file called TestResults2.xml. When I did that the JUnit Parser returned this error:
Failing task since test cases were expected but none were found.
So I'm assuming that the first error message means Bamboo is finding the file, it just can't parse the file.
I have no idea where to start working out what exactly is the problem. Has anyone got any ideas?
I had a similar problem, but turned out to be weird behavior from bamboo needing file stamps being modified to have visibility of the JUnit file.
In Windows enviornment you just need to add "script task" before the "JUnit task"
powershell (ls *.xml).LastWriteTime = Get-Date

I have had several cases of this and was able to fix it by removing single quotes and greater than / less than characters from test names inside the *.rb file.
Example
test "make sure 'go_to_world' is removed from header and length < 23"
change to remove single quotes and < symbol
test "make sure go_to_world is removed from header and length less than 23"
Very common are contractions: "won't don't shouldn't", or possessives: "the vessel's data".
And also < or > characters.
I think there is a bug in the parser that just doesn't escape those characters in a test title appropriately.
