Test Specification
Most of the functionality in wifimngr can be tested via its ubus API. Each API can be broken down into an individual test case to show full coverage is achieved.
Sections
Prerequisites
The only prerequisite for the wifimngr test suites is that libwifi has to be
built for the TEST platform, a versionprepared to publish dummy data for getter
API, and record setter API to a test logfile at /tmp/test.log.
Test Suites
The wifimngr build pipe has three test suites, a functional-api suite, a unit testi suite and functional test suite.
Functional API Tests
The functional API tests consists of four individual test suites, one per object Ubus under test. The functional API tests use the Ubus-API-validation command-line interface tool to invoke a method, programmatically through libubus, and validates it against the objects json-schema.

Unit Tests
The wifimngr unit tests are written in cmocka, invoking the ubus callbacks
directly from the source code, which is compiled into a shared library.
This means mocking the arguments of a cli or libubus invoke in a
struct blob_attr *. The results of the call will be logged to the logfile at
/tmp/test.log.

Functional Tests
| Serial ID | Test Case Name |
|---|---|
| 1 | test_api_events |
test_api_events
Description
Tests the event registration and receive process. Wifimngr will read the file
/etc/wifi.json in order to register to netlink events, in this case the
netlink family easysoc and the group notify.
{
"events" : [
{
"type": "wifi-event",
"name": "cfg09ac03",
"ifname": "test5",
"family": "easysoc",
"group": [
"notify"
]
}
]
}
Test Steps
As netlink events are not being published in the docker environment, the test will verify that a listener thread is created, registrates a listener and calls the libwifi API for receiving events.
As in practice the listener thread is intended to listen for events for the
entire lifetime of the process, there is no break condition for the listener
loop. However, in order to get a more accurate memory management report, the
event loop, int wifimngr_recv_event(2) is mocked to allow break on the return
code -1.
int wifimngr_recv_event(const char *ifname, void *handle)
{
int err;
for (;;) {
err = wifi_recv_event((char *)ifname, handle);
if (err < 0)
return -1;
}
return 0;
}
Test Expected Results
The expected results are that wifimngr will have attempted to register a listner
with the family easysoc, the group notify under the interface test5, and
attempted to receive events under the same interface, read from the test log
file under the function tags register_event and recv_event.
[2020-02-05 09:38:40] register_event: { "ifname": "test5", "family": "easysoc", "group": "notify" }
[2020-02-05 09:38:40] recv_event: { "ifname": "test5" }
Writing New Tests
On the addition of new APIs to wifimngr and libwifi, additional tests should be written to maintain the coverage and quality of the code.
Libwifi
On a new addition to the libwifi API, the test platform for libwifi has to be
extended. The test platform for libwifi consists of two files, test.c and
test.h, found under the subdirectory ./libwifi/modules/ under the
easy-soc-libs repository.
The following examples assume the existence of a struct test.
struct test {
unsigned char sta[6];
}
Getter
Assume the addition of the new API, get_client(2), taking an interface,
char * as first argument, and a struct test *, filling the
struct with the mac address of the first client in the interface.
The first step is to prepare some dummy data in the header file, in this case
a dummy client of the type struct test. Two structs with static mac addresses
are to be prepared, one for each test interface, holding static data to
represent a mac address. Additionally, add a macro pointing to the address of
the structs with the dummy data.
/* 5GHz dummy data */
const struct test test5_test_data = {
.sta = {"\x66\x55\x44\x33\x22\x11"}
};
/* 5GHz "pointer" to dummy data */
#define test5_test &test5_test_data
/* 2.4GHz dummy data */
const struct test test2_test_data = {
.sta = {"\x11\x22\x33\x44\x55\x66"}
};
/* 2.4GHz "pointer" to dummy data */
#define test2_test &test2_test_data
With the dummy data prepared, the function can be implemented. The test platform
has a set of macros prepared to use when filling variables with dummy data,
ranging from primitive types, buffers, arrays and structs. For this example
the helper macro GET_TEST_BUF_TYPE(4) will be used:
#define TESTDATA(band, attr) test ## band ## _ ## attr
...
#define GET_TEST_BUF_TYPE(o, iface, attr, type) \
({ \
if (ifname_to_band(iface) == 5) \
memcpy(o, TESTDATA(5, attr), sizeof(type)); \
else \
memcpy(o, TESTDATA(2, attr), sizeof(type)); \
})
The macro will fill the first argument, o, wth the data pointed to by the
concatenated variable test, 5, _ and the attr argument, forming
test5_test.
Therefore, implementing our dummy getter, test_get_client(2), becomes simple.
int get_client(char *ifname, struct test *t)
{
GET_TEST_BUF_TYPE(t, name, test, struct test);
return 0;
}
Lastly, it should be added to the driver, assuming the driver has been updated
with a get_client function pointer:
const struct wifi_driver test_driver = {
.name = "test",
.get_client = test_get_client,
...
};
Setter
In the case of an addition of a new setter to the libwifi API. A log function
is prepared in the test driver, logging a char * string to a test log file,
/tmp/test.log, log_test(2). The first argument to log_test(2) is the
char * representing the format, and the second is a va_list; all the
arguments of the format. It is important the the format follows the structure
<FUNCTION_IDENTIFIER>: { <RELEVANT_ARGS> }
Assume the addition of a set_client(2) API call, the function should be
implemented in the test driver, calling log_test(2) to be able to verify the
struct usage and library linkage. Let's assume that the exposed Ubus API
takes an argument in the form of a mac address, that would be provded as an
argument, sta.
int test_set_client(char *ifname, struct test *t)
{
log_test("set_client: { \"ifname\": \"%s\", \"sta\": \"%02x%02x%02x%02x%02x%02x\" }",
ifname, t->sta[0], t->sta[0], t->sta[0],
t->sta[0], t->sta[0], t->sta[0]);
return 0;
}
This will log the entry as:
[2020-02-04 13:06:12] set_client: { "ifname": "test5", "sta": "00:11:22:33:44:55" }
Which can then be read by the corresponding test case and verified.
Writing Tests
When extending the test cases themselves, getters should be tested via the Ubus-API-validation tool for in the functional-api-test suite.
Setters without any external dependencies (i.e. other processes) should be
included in the unit tests (./test/api_test_wifi_setters.c), and remaining
setters in the functional-test suite (./test/function_test_wifi_event.c).
For the setter tests, a utility function has been prepared to parse the logfile
for the latest occurrance of a function identifier tag, poll_test_log(2),
utility function have been prepared. The function takes a FILE * as first
argument, found in the struct test_env, and the function identifier as
second argument, returning the json payload found in the log file, if any.
