Parameters and test cases are defined in the manifest.toml file of every test plan. Let's have a look once again at the quickstart/manifest.toml file and add two test cases to the bottom of the file:
$TESTGROUND_HOME/plans/quickstart/manifest.toml
...
[[testcases]]
name = "smallbrain"
instances = { min = 1, max = 200, default = 1 }
[testcases.params]
word = { type = "string", default = "never" }
num = { type = "int", default = 2 }
feature = { type = "bool", default = false }
[[testcases]]
name = "bigbrain"
[testcases.params]
word = { type = "string", default = "always" }
num = { type = "int", default = 10000000 }
feature = { type = "bool", default = false }
?> Feel free to add your own galaxybrain test case as well!
$ testground plan list --testcases | grep quickstart
quickstart smallbrain
quickstart bigbrain
We would like to take these two cases out for a spin. First, let's prepare our code. Open our quickstart plan program and deal with these parameters!
!> This snippet is routing both test cases to the same function. In practice, you will want to run different logic for each test case!
$TESTGROUND_HOME/plans/quickstart/main.go
package main
import (
"github.com/testground/sdk-go/run"
"github.com/testground/sdk-go/runtime"
)
func main() {
run.InvokeMap(map[string]interface{}{
"bigbrain": test,
"smallbrain": test,
})
}
func test(runenv *runtime.RunEnv) error {
var (
num = runenv.IntParam("num")
word = runenv.StringParam("word")
feature = runenv.BooleanParam("feature")
)
runenv.RecordMessage("I am a %s test case.", runenv.TestCase)
runenv.RecordMessage("I store my files on %d servers.", num)
runenv.RecordMessage("I %s run tests on my P2P code.", word)
if feature {
runenv.RecordMessage("I use IPFS!")
}
return nil
}
The time has come now to run these test cases. Let's run it!
$ testground run single --plan quickstart \
--testcase smallbrain \
--builder exec:go \
--run local:exec \
--instances 1
?> Try using different runners. This command executes the plan with the local:exec runner and exec:gobuilder, but it works just as well with the local:docker runner or the Kubernetes cluster:k8srunner (for which you will need to use the docker:go builder!
You can confirm that the is able to parse the manifest, and enumerate the cases it declares:
As you can see, a test plan a simple executable that conforms to the , which the SDK facilitates. This makes it super easy to debug and develop. There's beauty in simplicity!
