OSBuild Test Data

This directory contains data used by the osbuild test-suite. Since many formats do not allow comments, this file shortly describes their purpose.

Directories

  • ./os-release/: This directory is consumed by the unit-tests of the os-release parser. The directory contains example os-release files (see os-release(5)). Their directory name is the expected output of the parser.

  • ./manifests/: This directory contains osbuild manifests used throughout the test-suite.

Manifests prefixed with f30, f31, etc. are manifests that produce fedora images. If they have base as part of their name, they include a base set of packages which we very loosely define as @core plus the packages our test-suite needs. If they have build as part of their name, they have a very restricted package set which includes just what is needed in a build-root for osbuild. The fedora prefix is used for manifests that are kept up to date to the newest fedora release, and thus do not expose a specific f30, f32, etc. behavior.

The rhel prefix is used for Red Hat Enterprise Linux images. Since they are not available publicly, the test-suite usually skips them.

Manifests prefixed with mpp-* are fed through the ManifestPreProcessors and then stored in the same directory with the mpp-* prefix dropped. The generated files are committed to the repository. Nevertheless, if you need to regenerate them, use make test-data.

  • ./sources/: This directory contains test-data for runtime tests of the source-engines. It contains a directory that is served via HTTP in the tests, and a directory of test-cases what to expect when using the attached sources.json.
