Studio:WorkspaceSetup.pl: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 22:04, 2 December 2008

The WorkspaceSetup.pl script (found in the STRIDE scripts directory) provides a command line tool for creating canonical STRIDE Studio workspaces suitable for organizing your test scripts. This script requires perl for execution as well as the STRIDE Test Utilities.

Usage

Summary

WorkspaceSetup.pl -w MyWorkspace -d "MyDir" -f fxname [-g fxdir -p pkg -q pkgdir -s customsettings -c customconfig -l]

Parameters
-w | --workspacename = WorkspaceName: Specifies the name new workspace to be created. This workspace will be created in the directory specified by the --dirworkspace argument or in the current directory (if no workspace directory is specified). Defaults to 'MyWorkspace'.
-d | --dirworkspace = WorkspaceDirectory: Specifies the directory in which to create the new workspace. Defaults to the current directory.
-c | --workspaceconfig = MyConfig.pm: Allows users to specify a different WorkspaceConfig file to use when creating the workspace. This allows framework users to generate a workspace with custom config parameters.
-l | --launch: Launches STRIDE Studio and opens the newly created workspace.

Workspace Layout

The workspaces that are created by WorkspaceSetup will have the following files and folders (items in <brackets> indicate folders):

 < Script Files > 
   <setup>
     StartPrintLog.pl
   <test> 
   <teardown>
     StopPrintLog.pl
     TweakResults.pl
   <utility>
     <recovery>
       s2OnError.pl

 < Source Files >

setup Folder

This folder is intended to contain the scripts necessary to prepare the device for testing. For the canonical workspace, we add a script that opens a traceview to capture srPrint* output messages. Users might choose to add scripts for starting and initializing the device under test.

test Folder

This folder is intended to contain the test scripts to be executed on the device. It is created by this setup and test script writers are free to organize test scripts however they want in this folder. This folder also has the "OnRunConnect" property set to true so that a target connection will be initiated when it is executed. The connection is established using your global connection settings (see STRIDE Studio reference guide for more information).

teardown Folder

This folder contains the scripts necessary to cleanup after testing is completed. This might involve, for example, stopping the device. The canonical workspace contains one script to process the srPrint* info sent to the logging traceview and another to adjust the hierarchy of the final report results.

utility Folder

This folder should be used to hold utility libraries that are associated with the workspace. This directory is not included in execution; as such, the files therin are provided for convenience to the users.

recovery Folder

This folder contains the sample s2OnError script that we provide. This is intended as a template for customization depending on your device's needs.

 ;-d | --dirworkspace = WorkspaceDirectory
 :Specifies the directory in which to create the new workspace. Defaults to the current directory.
-;-f | --framework = TargetFramework
-:Specifies the STRIDE Target Framework to use when creating the workspace. As of this writing, STRIDE provides several basic frameworks:
-:*'''''LinuxTestAgent''''' for TestAgent-based tests on a FedoraCore7 target machine.
-:*'''''WindowsTestAgent''''' for TestAgent-based tests on the host platform.
-:*'''''WindowsTestApp''''' for TestApp-based tests on the host platform.
-:*'''''WinMobileTestAgent''''' for TestAgent-based tests on a WinMobile device.
-:*'''''GenericTestAgent''''' for a skeleton framework that prompts the user at each step that requires action (e.g. building or starting the target application).
-:*'''''GenericTestApp''''' for a skeleton framework that prompts the user at each step that required action.
-:Customers can create additional custom frameworks and specify additional search paths for this script to use to locate the frameworks.
-;-g | --dirframework = FrameworkSearchDirectory
-:Specifies an additional directory path to search for the specified framework. If the framework is not found in the default STRIDE frameworks directory, these directories will be searched. This option can be specified multiple times to add multiple directories to the framework search path.
-;-p | --package = PackageName
-:Specifies a Test Package to add to the workspace when it is created. If no packages are specified, the workspace will be created without any tests in it. This option can be specified multiple times to add multiple packages to the new workspace
-;-q | --dirpackage = PackageSearchDirectory
-:Specifies an additional directory path to search for packages. For any package that is specified with the --package option, we first look in the packages directory in the STRIDE installation directory. If it is not found there, we will search in the location(s) specified by this option. This option can be specified multiple times to add multiple additional directories to the packages search path.
-;-s | --commonsettings = MySettings.pm
-:Allows users to specify a different CommonSettings file to copy into the generated workspace directory. This allows framework users to generate a workspace with a customized set of local settings.
 ;-c | --workspaceconfig = MyConfig.pm
 :Allows users to specify a different WorkspaceConfig file to use when creating the workspace. This allows framework users to generate a workspace with custom config parameters.

-===build Folder===

-This folder may contain one or more Test Package-specific scripts for properly configuring the Intercept Module settings for the interfaces associated with the package.
 ===setup Folder===
-This folder contains the scripts necessary to prepare the device for testing. For TestAgent-based frameworks, this might involve transfer of the TestAgent image and starting of the process on the device.
