Install requirements

On openSUSE:

$ zypper install osc podman python3-behave

On Fedora:

$ dnf install osc podman python3-behave

Build a container with OBS

$ cd behave

# optional: refresh the base image
$ podman pull opensuse/leap:15.4

# build the container image
$ ./container-build.sh [--no-cache]

We can also use the built container outside the test suite

$ cd behave

# run 'obs-server' container on port 1443
$ ./container-run.sh

# shell into the started container
$ ./container-shell.sh

# stop the started container
$ podman stop|kill obs-server

# remove container image
$ podman rmi obs-server

Run tests

Run all tests

$ cd behave
$ behave -Dosc=../osc-wrapper.py

Run selected tests

$ cd behave
$ behave -Dosc=../osc-wrapper.py features/<file>.feature

Run tests being worked on (decorated with @wip)

$ cd behave
behave -Dosc=../osc-wrapper.py --wip -k

Good to know

• context provides state information to the tests; you can think of it as passing self to python methods.
• context.config.userdata contains values of defines specified on the command-line: -D NAME=VALUE -> context.config.userdata[NAME] = VALUE
