Testing and Automation
How to fail successfully and reliably
And look good while doing it
Introduction
Activity: what's "failure", anyway?
Impact of failure
Resources spent before failure is made
Resources spent to detect failure
Resources spent after failure is detected
So what is "fail fast"?
*The art and science of satisficing
Activity: how would you design to fail in these scenarios?
Documentation - the power of story-telling
Summary: the successful way to fail fast

Overview of SUSE's Linux kernel testing in OpenQA, how we keep track of known issues, explore test results and other features of JDP. The JDP framework is written in Julia, uses Redis as a distributed data cache and Jupyter for interactive reporting. OpenQA is a large application used for testing operating systems and displaying the results.

What benchmark? How many VMs? How big each VM is? Are they all equal or are they different? What's the host OS? What are the guest OSes? I.e., when wanting to do virtualization performance testing, the matrix of test cases tends to explode pretty quickly. This talk will show how we enhanced an existing benchmarking suite, MMTests, in order to be able to deal a little bit better with such complexity. And what our further activities and plans are, for even more and better automation.

OCS stands for Openshift Container storage. It provides container-based storage for OCP(Openshift container platform). It’s easily scalable to bare metal, VMs and cloud platforms. Auto healing is a property of OCS cluster that auto heals a cluster component automatically when passes through an unexpected condition. A component can be a node, a network interface, a service, etc. To make sure auto heals just fine, we introduced negative testing. Negative Testing is defined as, a testing type ...

OpenTAP is a project aimed at automation in the test and measurement space. It is designed for test and measurement of hardware in R&D and manufacturing, but is moving more towards software testing e.g. with usage in cloud infrastructure testing. The project started as an internal product by Keysight Technologies and is used as the core of many products and solutions deployed around the world. As of 2019, we have released OpenTAP under the Mozilla Public License v2 and are working on building a ...
