Unit tests
The unit tests are written in Go and can be executed with the following commands:
go test -v ./...
The unit tests do not execute actual virtual machines.
Integration tests
The integration tests incurs actual execution of virtual machines.
The integration tests are written in bash and partially in Perl.
Use hack/test-templates.sh
to execute integration tests, with a virtual machine template file, e.g.,:
./hack/test-templates.sh ./templates/default.yaml
./hack/test-templates.sh ./templates/fedora.yaml
./hack/test-templates.sh ./hack/test-templates/test-misc.yaml
CI
.github/workflows/test.yml
executes the unit tests and the integration tests on the GitHub Actions with the “Tier 1” templates.
Most integration tests are executed on Linux runners, as macOS runners are slow and flaky.
The tests about macOS-specific features (e.g., vz and vmnet) are still executed on macOS runners.
Currently, the Intel version of macOS is used, as the ARM version of macOS on GitHub Actions still do not support nested virtualization.
