YaST/Development/Misc/TestPackageUI

From openSUSE

The program deptestomatic.multi is from package libzypp-testsuite-tools, the UI test cases are included in libzypp-testsuite-tools-data.

Steps to do:

Install libzypp-testsuite-tools.rpm

Install libzypp-testsuite-tools-data.rpm

Call /usr/lib/zypp/testsuite/bin/deptestomatic.multi <test case>
test cases from:
/usr/share/zypp/testsuite/data/solver/data.deptestomatic/UI-tests

For further information about the libzypp testsuite tools see Libzypp/Testsuite_solver.

The package UI will appear. If there are unresolved dependencies in the test case the dependency popup is shown immediately. Otherwise you are able to produce conflicts by selecting/deselecting packages/patches.

If you want to test the ncurses (textmode) UI, just unset the display first:

unset DISPLAY

To create a new test case call "Generate Dependency Solver Testcase" from the "Extras" menu of the Qt package selector (resp. "Dependencies" menu for ncurses UI). The tag <YOU/> or <PkgUI/> has to be added manually to the generated solver-test.xml file (from /var/log/YaST2/solverTestcase).

If you want to add the test case to the git repository of zypp check out libzypp-testsuite.git (how to get the sources see Libzypp/Devel). Rename solver-test.xml to a meaningful name and copy all files created in /var/log/YaST2/solverTestcase to libzypp-testsuite/solver/data.deptestomatic/UI-tests.

Before checking in add the new test case to the ignore file!
