./manual_isojigdo -x ../xorriso/xorriso
Exercises the production of a bootable Debian GNU/Linux image and its Jigdo

extracts its content and composes a new image.
Thus it needs about 250 MB of disk space in releng/releng_generated_data .

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Creating a new test script
+++ * DELIVERING A NEW TEST SCRIPT
+++ + Start a new test script over the top of template_new_releng
+++ + Each completed script starts with auto_ or manual_ prefix
If you want to provide an own test, manual or auto, then first invent a name
for it
test_name="releng/manual_"...some.name...
or
test_name="releng/auto_"...some.name...
Then copy file releng/template_new to $test_name .
Edit $test_name and process any line that begins by "# === TEMPLATE:".
Do what the line prescribes and then remove it from the script. You are
not done as long as such a line remains.
+++ + Each script' self-generated data are to be stored in
+++ ./releng_generated_data/scriptname/ directory
Your test must not start if no file ./inc/releng_getopts.inc exists,
i.e. if the current working direcoty is not ./releng.
If your test creates own files on disk, then it must do this underneath
directory ./releng_generated_data/$test_name (resp. $GEN_DATA_DIR, see below).
+++ + Throw FAIL string to stdout if any failure is detected
+++ + Return exit code 0 on success, non-zero on failure
+++ + Use different exit codes for any failure (range 0-31)
In case of failure, issue a line to stdout that begins by the word "FAIL",
and make sure that the test script finally returns a non-zero exit value.
This value should be between 1 and 28. Each type of failure should have its
own exit value.
Predefined are:
31 = Unknown option or unusable argument with known option
30 = Unexpected state of own directory for self generated files
29 = Not in ./releng directory or missing essential parts of ./releng
General options, variables, and functions
+++ inc/releng_getopts.inc variables, functions, initializations
The code piece inc/releng_getopts.inc should get executed inline at the
start of a test script.
It initializes the following variables and sets some of them according
to the general options of the test suite:
SELF basename $0
GEN_DATA_DIR releng_generated_data/${SELF}
RELENG_XORRISO Path to xorriso binary. "" or "0" means no xorriso.
Default "0". Adjustable by option -x.
SIMULATE_FAILURE 0=normal operation, 1=test script shall simulate a failure.
Default 0. Setable to 1 by option -f.
CLEANUP 0=do not cleanup temporary data, 1=normal operation
Default 1. Setable to 0 by option -k.
SPECIFIC_HELP 0=normal operation, 1=print help text of script and exit 0
Default 0. Setable to 1 by option -h
The code piece inc/releng_getopts.inc defines the follwoing functions
for use by the single tests:
print_help Prints the help text for general options.
check_for_xorriso [-x]
Will exit with value 31 if no path to a xorriso binary
was defined by option -x of ./run_all_auto or a single
test.
Option -x of check_for_xorriso additionally tests whether
the given path leads to an executable program.
cleanup Removes the directory tree GEN_DATA_DIR after making
some safety checks.
boldify Try to set the terminal mode for future output to a more
noticable style of writing.
unboldify Reset terminal mode to normal style of writing.
Specific options
+++ + Keep the newly added script options in sync with other scripts
Options which are specific to the test should begin with a double dash.
They may have further arguments.
Implement them in the prepared interpreter loop which begins after line
next_is=ignore
Specific options shall only be interpreted by tests which get run manually.
If you plan to introduce a specific option, look at the description of
existing tests whether one of them would match your needs. In that case,
please re-use the name of that existing option.
=============================================================================
TODO:
* move auto_isojigdo to manual_isojigdo
because of its resource consumption
* Remove NOTE|DEBUG|ALL from run_all_auto event class list
* Delete debian-testing-i386-businesscard.iso with ./run_all_auto -c
* manual_isojigdo proposes to run manual checks after it removed the
generated images.
* Have a script ./run_all_manual
* derive a GNU xorriso test suite from libisoburn test suite
