xDS (Load-Balancing) Interop Test Case Descriptions

Client and server use test.proto.

Server

The code for the xDS test server can be found at: Java (other language implementations are in progress).

Server should accept these arguments:

  • --port=PORT
    • The port the server will run on.

Client

The base behavior of the xDS test client is to send a constant QPS of unary messages and record the remote-peer distribution of the responses. Further, the client must expose an implementation of the LoadBalancerStatsService gRPC service to allow the test driver to validate the load balancing behavior for a particular test case (see below for more details).

The code for the xDS test client can be at: Java (other language implementations are in progress).

Clients should accept these arguments:

  • --fail_on_failed_rpcs=BOOL
    • If true, the client should exit with a non-zero return code if any RPCs fail after at least one RPC has succeeded, indicating a valid xDS config was received. This accounts for any startup-related delays in receiving an initial config from the load balancer. Default is false.
  • --num_channels=CHANNELS
    • The number of channels to create to the server.
  • --qps=QPS
    • The QPS per channel.
  • --server=HOSTNAME:PORT
    • The server host to connect to. For example, "localhost:8080"
  • --stats_port=PORT
    • The port for to expose the client's LoadBalancerStatsService implementation.
  • --rpc_timeout_sec=SEC
    • The timeout to set on all outbound RPCs. Default is 20.

XdsUpdateClientConfigureService

The xDS test client's behavior can be dynamically changed in the middle of tests. This is achieved by invoking the XdsUpdateClientConfigureService gRPC service on the test client. This can be useful for tests requiring special client behaviors that are not desirable at test initialization and client warmup. The service is defined as:

message ClientConfigureRequest {
  // Type of RPCs to send.
  enum RpcType {
    EMPTY_CALL = 0;
    UNARY_CALL = 1;
  }

  // Metadata to be attached for the given type of RPCs.
  message Metadata {
    RpcType type = 1;
    string key = 2;
    string value = 3;
  }

  // The types of RPCs the client sends.
  repeated RpcType types = 1;
  // The collection of custom metadata to be attached to RPCs sent by the client.
  repeated Metadata metadata = 2;
}

message ClientConfigureResponse {}

service XdsUpdateClientConfigureService {
  // Update the tes client's configuration.
  rpc Configure(ClientConfigureRequest) returns (ClientConfigureResponse);
}

The test client changes its behavior right after receiving the ClientConfigureRequest. Currently it only supports configuring the type(s) of RPCs sent by the test client and metadata attached to each type of RPCs.

Test Driver

Note that, unlike our other interop tests, neither the client nor the server has any notion of which of the following test scenarios is under test. Instead, a separate test driver is responsible for configuring the load balancer and the server backends, running the client, and then querying the client's LoadBalancerStatsService to validate load balancer behavior for each of the tests described below.

LoadBalancerStatsService

The service is defined as:

message LoadBalancerStatsRequest {
  // Request stats for the next num_rpcs sent by client.
  int32 num_rpcs = 1;
  // If num_rpcs have not completed within timeout_sec, return partial results.
  int32 timeout_sec = 2;
}

message LoadBalancerStatsResponse {
  // The number of completed RPCs for each peer.
  map<string, int32> rpcs_by_peer = 1;
  // The number of RPCs that failed to record a remote peer.
  int32 num_failures = 2;
}

message LoadBalancerAccumulatedStatsRequest {}

message LoadBalancerAccumulatedStatsResponse {
  // The total number of RPCs have ever issued for each type.
  map<string, int32> num_rpcs_started_by_method = 1;
  // The total number of RPCs have ever completed successfully for each type.
  map<string, int32> num_rpcs_succeeded_by_method = 2;
  // The total number of RPCs have ever failed for each type.
  map<string, int32> num_rpcs_failed_by_method = 3;
}

service LoadBalancerStatsService {
  // Gets the backend distribution for RPCs sent by a test client.
  rpc GetClientStats(LoadBalancerStatsRequest)
      returns (LoadBalancerStatsResponse) {}
  // Gets the accumulated stats for RPCs sent by a test client.
  rpc GetClientAccumulatedStats(LoadBalancerAccumulatedStatsRequest)
      returns (LoadBalancerAccumulatedStatsResponse) {}
}

Note that the LoadBalancerStatsResponse contains the remote peer distribution of the next num_rpcs sent by the client after receiving the LoadBalancerStatsRequest. It is important that the remote peer distribution be recorded for a block of consecutive outgoing RPCs, to validate the intended distribution from the load balancer, rather than just looking at the next num_rpcs responses received from backends, as different backends may respond at different rates.

  2. EmptyCall RPCs are sent to MIG_default

The test driver changes route and asserts RPCs are sent to expected backends. Note that the default route "/" is always pointing to MIG_default, so all RPCs not matching the new route will be sent to MIG_default.

  • {header xds_md, exact: empty_ytpme}: MIG_2

    • Unary -> MIG_default
    • Empty -> MIG_2

  • {header xds_md, prefix: un}: MIG_2

    • un is the prefix of metadata sent with UnaryCall
    • Unary -> MIG_2
    • Empty -> MIG_default

  • {header xds_md, suffix: me}: MIG_2

    • me is the suffix of metadata sent with EmptyCall
    • Unary -> MIG_default
    • Empty to MIG_2

    • Unary -> MIG_2
    • Empty -> MIG_default

  • {header xds_md, exact: unary_yranu, invert: True}: MIG_2

    • Empty to MIG_2

  • {header xds_md_numeric, range [100,200]}: MIG_2

    • Unary is sent with the metadata in range
    • Unary -> MIG_2
    • Empty -> MIG_default

  • {header xds_md, regex: ^em.*me$}: MIG_2

    • EmptyCall is sent with the metadata
    • Unary -> MIG_default
