Running the Antrea end-to-end tests
Creating the test Kubernetes cluster
The tests must be run on an actual Kubernetes cluster. At the moment, we require
the cluster to be created using Vagrant and the
provided Vagrantfile, which you can do by following
the instructions below.
Creating the test Kubernetes cluster with Vagrant
We use Vagrant to provision two Virtual Machines (one Kubernetes master node and
one worker node). The required software is installed on each machine with
Ansible. By default the Vagrantfile uses
VirtualBox but you should be able to edit the
file to use your favorite Vagrant provider.
Dependencies
We require the following to be installed on your host machine:
vagrant
(>= 2.0.0
)
ansible
(>= 2.4.0
)
virtualbox
(See supported versions
here).
Ubuntu 18.04 (or later)
You can install all dependencies with sudo apt install vagrant ansible virtualbox
.
Mac OS
You can install all the dependencies with brew:
brew cask install virtualbox
brew cask install vagrant
brew install ansible
If an action is required on your part, brew
will let you know in its log
messages.
Managing the cluster
Use the following Bash scripts to manage the Kubernetes nodes with Vagrant:
./infra/vagrant/provision.sh
: create the required VMs and provision them
./infra/vagrant/push_antrea.sh
: load the antrea/antrea-ubuntu Docker image
to each node, along with the Antrea deployment YAML
./infra/vagrant/suspend.sh
: suspend all node VMs
./infra/vagrant/resume.sh
: resume all node VMs
./infra/vagrant/destroy.sh
: destoy all node VMs, you will need to run
provision.sh
again to create a new cluster
Note that ./infra/vagrant/provision.sh
can take a while to complete but it
only needs to be run once.
Debugging
You can SSH into any of the node VMs using vagrant ssh [node name]
(must be
run from the infra/vagrant
directory. The master node is named
k8s-node-master
and the worker nodes are named k8s-node-worker-<N>
(for a
single worker node, the name is k8s-node-worker-1
. kubectl
is installed on
all the nodes.
Running the tests
Make sure that your cluster was provisioned and that the Antrea build artifacts
were pushed to all the nodes. You can then run the tests from the top-level
directory with go test -v github.com/vmware-tanzu/antrea/test/e2e
(the -v
enables verbose output).
If you are running the test for the first time and are using the scripts we
provide under infra/vagrant
to provision your Kubernetes cluster, you will
therefore need the following steps:
./infra/vagrant/provision.sh
make
./infra/vagrant/push_antrea.sh
go test -v github.com/vmware-tanzu/antrea/test/e2e
If you need to test an updated version of Antrea, just run
./infra/vagrant/push_antrea.sh
and then run the tests again.
By default, if a test case fails, we write some useful debug information to a
temporary directory on disk. This information includes the detailed description
(obtained with kubectl describe
) and the logs (obtained with kubectl logs
)
of each Antrea Pod at the time the test case exited. When running the tests in
verbose mode (i.e. with -v
), the test logs will tell you the location of that
temporary directory. You may also choose your own directory using
--logs-export-dir
. For example:
mkdir antrea-test-logs
go test -count=1 -v -run=TestDeletePod github.com/vmware-tanzu/antrea/test/e2e --logs-export-dir `pwd`/antrea-test-logs
By default the description and logs for Antrea Pods are only written to disk if a
test fails. You can choose to dump this information unconditionally with
--logs-export-on-success
.
Running the e2e tests on a Kind cluster
Refer to this document for instructions on how to create a
Kind cluster and use Antrea as the CNI. You need at least one control-plane
(master) Node and one worker Node. Before running the Go e2e tests, you will
also need to copy the Antrea manifest to the master Docker container:
./hack/generate-manifest.sh --kind | docker exec -i kind-control-plane dd of=/root/antrea.yml
go test -v github.com/vmware-tanzu/antrea/test/e2e -provider=kind
To run all benchmarks, without the standard e2e tests:
go test -v -timeout=30m -run=XXX -bench=. \
github.com/vmware-tanzu/antrea/test/e2e \
--performance.http.concurrency=16
The above command uses -run=XXX
to deselect all Test*
tests and uses -bench=.
to select
all Benchmark*
tests. Since performance tests take a while to complete, you need to extend
the timeout duration -timeout
from the default 10m
to a longer one like 30m
.
If you would like to run the performance tests in a different scale, you could run:
go test -v -timeout=30m -run=XXX -bench=BenchmarkCustomize \
github.com/vmware-tanzu/antrea/test/e2e \
--performance.http.requests=5000 \
--performance.http.policy_rules=1000 \
--performance.http.concurrency=16
All flags of performance tests includes:
performance.http.concurrency (int)
: Number of allowed concurrent http requests (default 1)
performance.http.requests (int)
: Total Number of http requests
performance.http.policy_rules (int)
: Number of CIDRs in the network policy
performance.realize.timeout (duration)
: Timeout of the realization of network policies (default 5m0s)
Tests to be added
- Network policy tests
- Reconciliation on start-up tests
