Milvus Go Client Test Framework

Overview

This is a comprehensive test framework for the Milvus Go Client, designed to validate various functionalities of the Milvus vector database client. The framework provides a structured approach to writing tests with reusable components and helper functions.

Key Components

• Collection Preparation: Utilities for creating and managing collections
• Data Generation: Tools for generating test data
• Helper Functions: Common operations and validations
• Test Cases: Organized by functionality

Writing Test Cases

Basic Test Structure

func TestYourFeature(t *testing.T) {
    // 1. Setup context and client
    ctx := hp.CreateContext(t, time.Second*common.DefaultTimeout)
    mc := createDefaultMilvusClient(ctx, t)

    // 2. Prepare collection
    prepare, schema := hp.CollPrepare.CreateCollection(
        ctx, t, mc,
        hp.NewCreateCollectionParams(hp.Int64Vec),
        hp.TNewFieldsOption(),
        hp.TNewSchemaOption(),
    )

    // 3. Insert test data
    prepare.InsertData(ctx, t, mc,
        hp.NewInsertParams(schema),
        hp.TNewDataOption(),
    )

    // 4. Execute test operations
    // ... your test logic here ...

    // 5. Validate results
    require.NoError(t, err)
    require.Equal(t, expected, actual)
}

Using Custom Parameters

1. Collection Creation Parameters

fieldsOption := hp.TNewFieldsOption().
    TWithEnableAnalyzer(true).
    TWithAnalyzerParams(map[string]any{
        "tokenizer": "standard",
    })

schemaOption := hp.TNewSchemaOption().
    TWithEnableDynamicField(true).
    TWithDescription("Custom schema").
    TWithAutoID(false)

1. Data Insertion Options

insertOption := hp.TNewDataOption().
    TWithNb(1000).           // Number of records
    TWithDim(128).           // Vector dimension
    TWithStart(100).         // Starting ID
    TWithMaxLen(256).        // Maximum length
    TWithTextLang("en")      // Text language

1. Index Parameters

indexParams := hp.TNewIndexParams(schema).
    TWithFieldIndex(map[string]index.Index{
        common.DefaultVectorFieldName: index.NewIVFSQIndex(
            &index.IVFSQConfig{
                MetricType: entity.L2,
                NList:     128,
            },
        ),
    })

1. Search Parameters

searchOpt := client.NewSearchOption(schema.CollectionName, 100, vectors).
    WithOffset(0).
    WithLimit(100).
    WithConsistencyLevel(entity.ClStrong).
    WithFilter("int64 >= 100").
    WithOutputFields([]string{"*"}).
    WithSearchParams(map[string]any{
        "nprobe": 16,
        "ef":     64,
    })

Adding New Parameters

1. Define New Option Type

// In helper/data_helper.go
type YourNewOption struct {
    newParam1 string
    newParam2 int
}

1. Add Constructor

func TNewYourOption() *YourNewOption {
    return &YourNewOption{
        newParam1: "default",
        newParam2: 0,
    }
}

1. Add Parameter Methods

func (opt *YourNewOption) TWithNewParam1(value string) *YourNewOption {
    opt.newParam1 = value
    return opt
}

func (opt *YourNewOption) TWithNewParam2(value int) *YourNewOption {
    opt.newParam2 = value
    return opt
}

Best Practices

1. Test Organization

   • Group related tests in the same file
   • Use clear and descriptive test names
   • Add comments explaining test purpose

2. Data Generation

   • Use helper functions for generating test data
   • Ensure data is appropriate for the test case
   • Clean up test data after use

3. Error Handling

   • Use common.CheckErr for consistent error checking
   • Test both success and failure scenarios
   • Validate error messages when appropriate

4. Performance Considerations

   • Use appropriate timeouts
   • Clean up resources after tests
   • Consider test execution time

Running Tests

# Run all tests
go test ./testcases/...

# Run specific test
go test -run TestYourFeature ./testcases/

# Run with verbose output
go test -v ./testcases/...

Contributing

1. Follow the existing code structure
2. Add comprehensive test cases
3. Document new parameters and options
4. Update this README for significant changes
5. Ensure code quality standards:
   • Run golangci-lint run to check for style mistakes
   • Use gofmt -w your/code/path to format your code before submitting
   • CI will verify both golint and go format compliance
