# Overview |
|
|
|
This directory contains scripts that facilitate building and running tests. We are using python scripts as entrypoint for our |
|
tests because that gives us the opportunity to run tests using the same commandline regardless of the platform you are using. |
|
|
|
# Unit tests (run_tests.py) |
|
|
|
Builds gRPC in given language and runs unit tests. Use `tools/run_tests/run_tests.py --help` for more help. |
|
|
|
###### Example |
|
`tools/run_tests/run_tests.py -l python -c dbg` |
|
|
|
###### Useful options (among many others) |
|
- `--use_docker` Builds a docker container containing all the prerequisites for given language and runs the tests under that container. |
|
- `--build_only` Only build, do not run the tests. |
|
|
|
Note: If you get an error such as `ImportError: No module named httplib2`, then you may be missing some Python modules. Install the module listed in the error and try again. |
|
|
|
Note: some tests may be flaky. Check the "Issues" tab for known flakes and other issues. |
|
|
|
The full suite of unit tests will take many minutes to run. |
|
|
|
# Interop tests (run_interop_tests.py) |
|
|
|
Runs tests for cross-platform/cross-language interoperability. For more details, see [Interop tests descriptions](/doc/interop-test-descriptions.md) |
|
The script is also capable of running interop tests for grpc-java and grpc-go, using sources checked out alongside the ones of the grpc repository. |
|
|
|
###### Example |
|
`tools/run_tests/run_interop_tests.py -l python -s c++ --use_docker` (run interop tests with C# client and C++ server) |
|
|
|
Note: if you see an error like `no space left on device` when running the |
|
interop tests using Docker, make sure that Docker is building the image files in |
|
a location with sufficient disk space. |
|
|
|
# Performance benchmarks (run_performance_tests.py) |
|
|
|
The `run_performance_tests.py` script is deprecated. |
|
See [end-to-end benchmarking documentation](/tools/run_tests/peformance/README.md) for more info. |
|
|
|
# Artifacts & Packages (task_runner.py) |
|
|
|
A generalized framework for running predefined tasks based on their labels. We use this to building binary artifacts & distrib packages and testing them) |
|
|
|
###### Example |
|
`tools/run_tests/task_runner.py -f python artifact linux x64` (build tasks with labels `python`, `artifact`, `linux`, and `x64`) |
