Edinburgh Release (Committed)
- With automated blackbox tests in place, the Edinburgh release will include better visualization/dashboard of test results (including look up and display of historical test results). Candidate tools include Telegraf + Grafana + InfluxDB, DataDog, Prometheus. https://github.com/edgexfoundry/blackbox-testing/issues/105
- The Edinburgh release will include the capture of resource metrics to monitor performance. Metrics monitored will include memory and CPU consumption. https://github.com/edgexfoundry/edgex-go/issues/115
- As a stretch goal, the Edinburgh release will include performance/load testing using a tool like Bender, Jmeter, Load Impact or other tool selected by the work group.
- Security tests will be automated as mentioned above in the Security Group tasks. https://github.com/edgexfoundry/security-api-gateway/issues/44 & https://github.com/edgexfoundry/security-secret-store/issues/51
- For the Edinburgh release, code contributors will now be required to supply additional or updated blackbox tests to cover changes made to the code base with any PR. Working group leads and project committers are head accountable for this change in procedures.
- As a stretch goal, the project will look to produce Swagger documentation to better support testing and API documentation in future releases. RAML documentation will remain the officially API standard for Edinburgh, but additional Swagger documentation will be provided and weighed for use in future releases.
Backlog (April 2019)
Priorities shown in the table below are provisional and subject to review.
| Item# | Description | Priority | Target Release |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Improved unit tests across services (improvements should be driven by specific WG dev teams) | 1 | Fuji |
| 2 | Improve blackbox test structure including reorganization of the tests and better test case documentation (source ramya.ranganathan@intel.com) | 1 | Fuji |
| 3 | New test framework (e.g. Robot or Cucumber) to support additional types of functional/blackbox and system integration tests e.g. Device Service or system level latency tests | 1 | Fuji |
| 4 | Dockerize blackbox testing infrastructure for deployment simplification/flexibility | 2 | Geneva |
| 5 | System integration tests – currently we don’t have any end to end tests e.g. Device Service read data -> Core Data -> Rules Engine or Export Service | 2 | Geneva |
| 6 | Blackbox tests for new Application Services microservices | 1 | Fuji |
| 7 | Blackbox test for Device Services - Virtual, Modbus, MQTT, BACNet, OPC UA. Develop common set of tests that can be used against all Device Services. | 1 | Fuji |
| 8 | Configuration testing – currently all blackbox tests run with single static configuration, we should test additional EdgeX configurations | 2 | Geneva |
| 9 | Automated performance testing - API Load testing (measure response time) and metrics (CPU, memory) collection for all EdgeX microservices (this work was started during the Edinburgh iteration) | 1 | Fuji |
| 10 | Automated performance testing - EdgeX microservice startup times (STRETCH GOAL FOR EDINBURGH) | 1 | Fuji |
| 11 | Automated performance testing - Automated system level latency and throughout testing (e.g. device read to export or device read to analytics to device actuation) | 1 | Fuji |
| 12 | Automated performance testing - Baseline performance of service binaries no container | 3 | Hanoi |
| 13 | Blackbox and performance test runs against other container technologies supported (e.g. snaps) | 3 | Hanoi |
| 14 | Automated performance testing - The ability to create summary reports/dashboards of key EdgeX performance indicators with alerts if thresholds have been exceeded | 2 | Geneva |
| 15 | Test coverage analysis e.g. using tools such as Codecov.io | 1 | Fuji |
| 16 | Static code analysis e.g. using tools such as SonarQube or Coverity to identify badly written code, memory leaks and security vulnerabilities | 2 | Geneva |
| 17 | Tracing during testing e.g. based on Open Tracing standard such as Zipkin, Jaeger | 3 | Hanoi |
| 18 | Replacement of RAML API documentation with Swagger | 2 | Geneva |
| 19 | Blackbox tests moved into edgex-go repository. Will allow backbox test to be more easily added/updated by developers as part of a PR resulting from an API change. | 3 | Hanoi |
| 20 | Run blackbox tests for an individual EdgeX microservice when a PR issued. | 3 | Hanoi |
