Unit Tests

Nova contains a suite of unit tests, in the nova/tests directory.

Any proposed code change will be automatically rejected by the OpenStack Jenkins server1 if the change causes unit test failures.

Preferred way to run the tests

The preferred way to run the unit tests is using tox. See the unit testing section of the Testing wiki page and Nova's HACKING.rst for more information. Following are some simple examples.

To run the style tests:

tox -e pep8

You can request multiple tests, separated by commas:

tox -e py27,pep8

Running a subset of tests

Instead of running all tests, you can specify an individual directory, file, class, or method that contains test code.

To run the tests in the nova/tests/scheduler directory:

tox -e py27 nova.tests.scheduler

To run the tests in the nova/tests/virt/libvirt/test_libvirt.py file:

tox -e py27 test_libvirt

To run the tests in the CacheConcurrencyTestCase class in nova/tests/virt/libvirt/test_libvirt.py:

tox -e py27  test_libvirt.CacheConcurrencyTestCase

To run the ValidateIntegerTestCase.test_invalid_inputs test method in nova/tests/test_utils.py:

tox -epy27 test_utils.ValidateIntegerTestCase.test_invalid_inputs
