Hi all, Recently we added a new test, breaking make check when run on a development machine as non-privileged user. https://gerrit.ovirt.org/50984 This test pass on the CI environment, because the tests are running as root. Please verify that "make check" is successful on your development environment. otherwise, you may break the tests for others using this practice. Best practice for running the tests: 1. Run the tests for the module you change: $ ./run_tests_local.sh rwlock_test.py nose.config: INFO: Ignoring files matching ['^\\.', '^_', '^setup\\.py$'] rwlock_test.RWLockStressTests test_fairness(1, 2) SKIP: Stress tests are disabled test_fairness(2, 8) SKIP: Stress tests are disabled test_fairness(3, 32) SKIP: Stress tests are disabled test_fairness(4, 128) SKIP: Stress tests are disabled rwlock_test.RWLockTests test_concurrent_readers OK test_demotion_no_waiters OK test_demotion_with_blocked_reader SKIP: Slow tests are disabled test_demotion_with_blocked_writer SKIP: Slow tests are disabled test_exclusive_context_blocks_reader SKIP: Slow tests are disabled test_exclusive_context_blocks_writer SKIP: Slow tests are disabled test_fifo SKIP: Slow tests are disabled test_promotion_forbidden OK test_recursive_read_lock OK test_recursive_write_lock OK test_release_other_thread_read_lock OK test_release_other_thread_write_lock OK test_shared_context_allows_reader OK test_shared_context_blocks_writer SKIP: Slow tests are disabled test_wakeup_all_blocked_readers SKIP: Slow tests are disabled test_wakeup_blocked_reader SKIP: Slow tests are disabled test_wakeup_blocked_writer SKIP: Slow tests are disabled ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Ran 21 tests in 0.005s This should be very fast and should run after every change. 2. Check that slow and stress tests pass Some modules have @slowtest and @stresstest, which are skipped by default. When modifying such modules, enable also these tests: $ ./run_tests_local.sh rwlock_test.py --enable-slow-tests --enable-stress-tests nose.config: INFO: Ignoring files matching ['^\\.', '^_', '^setup\\.py$'] rwlock_test.RWLockStressTests test_fairness(1, 2) OK test_fairness(2, 8) OK test_fairness(3, 32) OK test_fairness(4, 128) OK rwlock_test.RWLockTests test_concurrent_readers OK test_demotion_no_waiters OK test_demotion_with_blocked_reader SKIP: Known issue in current code test_demotion_with_blocked_writer OK test_exclusive_context_blocks_reader OK test_exclusive_context_blocks_writer OK test_fifo OK test_promotion_forbidden OK test_recursive_read_lock OK test_recursive_write_lock OK test_release_other_thread_read_lock OK test_release_other_thread_write_lock OK test_shared_context_allows_reader OK test_shared_context_blocks_writer OK test_wakeup_all_blocked_readers OK test_wakeup_blocked_reader OK test_wakeup_blocked_writer OK ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Ran 21 tests in 14.054s This may take more time. 3. When the module tests pass, run "make check" make check This takes about 90 seconds. To run all tests, including slow and stress tests, use: make check-all This may take couple of minutes, so it is not recommended. Thanks, Nir
