2021-04-16tests: cpus awarenessKlement Sekera1-2/+6
Introduce MAX_CPUS parameters to control maximum number of CPUs used by VPP(s) during testing, with default value 'auto' corresponding to all CPUs available. Calculate test CPU requirements by taking into account the number of workers, so a test requires 1 (main thread) + # of worker CPUs. When running tests, keep track of both running test jobs (controlled by TEST_JOBS parameter) and free CPUs. This then causes two limits in the system - to not exceed number of jobs in parallel but also to not exceed number of CPUs available. Skip tests which require more CPUs than are available in system (or more than MAX_CPUS) and print a warning message.

2021-02-08tests: allow for externally supplied VPP workers config for testsAndrew Yourtchenko1-0/+9
Allow to supply the external VPP worker config for tests which do not specify the workers config explicitly, and use the tags infra to flag those that need attention in this configuration. This commit shows one example use of such a tag, there will be a separate commit with the rest of the places needing it, since that change is rather mechanical. Thus, the assumption is that the test should by default be agnostic of the VPP configuration, unless it explicitly specifies so.

2021-01-22tests: add generalized tags for tests, use them for run-solo testsAndrew Yourtchenko1-1/+1
We have accumulated several scenarios in prod or wishlists where it would be useful to have a general infra to say yes/no about a certain test, and potentially make decisions based on that, for example: - runs solo (aka 'time-dependent') - (wishlist) part of quick smoke-test set - (wishlist) intermittent failure unrelated to timing - (wishlist) test broken with a multi-worker config in vpp Refactor the current "run-solo" code to allow for this extension.

2020-08-27tests: "force solo" testcase supportAndrew Yourtchenko1-1/+8
Some of the tests are time-sensitive, and at present require a non-trivial modification in order to run at high concurrency. Without these modifications, they intermittently fail, and require the test retries. Rather than setting them to the extended tests and forgetting about them, put them into a "solo" set, which gets run in a single-threaded mode after the rest of the tests are done. Mark a few of the tests that showed errors during TEST_JOBS=48 as forced-solo. Also, give a better diagnostic if the testcase misses a docstring needed to represent it in the diagnostic outputs.

2019-11-05misc: Fix python scripts shebang lineRenato Botelho do Couto1-1/+1
Type: fix Since CentOS 8, RPM build script doesn't accept '#!/usr/bin/env python' as a valid shebang line. It requires scripts to explicitly chose between python2 or python3. Change all to use python3 as suggested by Paul Vinciguerra.

2019-01-14VTL: Allow running simple unittest.TestCases.Paul Vinciguerra1-3/+4
It came to my attention that Ole added a simple test in: https://gerrit.fd.io/r/#/c/16381/ and the framework forced him to launch an instance of VPP to test the formatting of a mac address. This change allows the test framework to run standard unittest.TestCases without the need to spawn a VPP instance.
