26 =head1 NAME
28 NPTest - Simplify the testing of Monitoring Plugins
30 =head1 DESCRIPTION
32 This modules provides convenience functions to assist in the testing
33 of Monitoring Plugins, making the testing code easier to read and write;
34 hopefully encouraging the development of a more complete test suite for
35 the Monitoring Plugins. It is based on the patterns of testing seen in the
36 1.4.0 release, and continues to use the L<Test> module as the basis of
37 testing.
39 =head1 FUNCTIONS
41 This module defines four public functions, C<getTestParameter(...)>,
42 C<checkCmd(...)>, C<skipMissingCmd(...)> and C<skipMsg(...)>. These are exported by
43 default via the C<use NPTest;> statement.
45 =over
47 =item getTestParameter( "ENV_VARIABLE", $brief_description, $default )
49 $default is optional.
51 This function allows the test harness
52 developer to interactively request test parameter information from the
53 user. The user can accept the developer's default value or reply "none"
54 which will then be returned as "" for the test to skip if appropriate.
56 If a parameter needs to be entered and the test is run without a tty
57 attached (such as a cronjob), the parameter will be assigned as if it
58 was "none". Tests can check for the parameter and skip if not set.
60 Responses are stored in an external, file-based cache so subsequent test
61 runs will use these values. The user is able to change the values by
62 amending the values in the file /var/tmp/NPTest.cache, or by setting
63 the appropriate environment variable before running the test.
65 The option exists to store parameters in a scoped means, allowing a
66 test harness to a localise a parameter should the need arise. This
67 allows a parameter of the same name to exist in a test harness
68 specific scope, while not affecting the globally scoped parameter. The
69 scoping identifier is the name of the test harness sans the trailing
70 ".t". All cache searches first look to a scoped parameter before
71 looking for the parameter at global scope. Thus for a test harness
72 called "check_disk.t" requesting the parameter "mountpoint_valid", the
73 cache is first searched for "check_disk"/"mountpoint_valid", if this
74 fails, then a search is conducted for "mountpoint_valid".
76 To facilitate quick testing setup, it is possible to accept all the
77 developer provided defaults by setting the environment variable
78 "NPTEST_ACCEPTDEFAULT" to "1" (or any other perl truth value). Note
79 that, such defaults are not stored in the cache, as there is currently
80 no mechanism to edit existing cache entries, save the use of text
81 editor or removing the cache file completely.
83 =item C<testCmd($command)>
85 Call with NPTest->testCmd("./check_disk ...."). This returns a NPTest object
86 which you can then run $object->return_code or $object->output against.
88 Testing of results would be done in your test script, not in this module.
90 =item C<checkCmd(...)>
92 This function is obsolete. Use C<testCmd()> instead.
94 This function attempts to encompass the majority of test styles used
95 in testing Monitoring Plugins. As each plug-in is a separate command, the
96 typical tests we wish to perform are against the exit status of the
97 command and the output (if any) it generated. Simplifying these tests
98 into a single function call, makes the test harness easier to read and
99 maintain and allows additional functionality (such as debugging) to be
100 provided without additional effort on the part of the test harness
101 developer.
103 It is possible to enable debugging via the environment variable
104 C<NPTEST_DEBUG>. If this environment variable exists and its value in PERL's
105 boolean context evaluates to true, debugging is enabled.
107 The function prototype can be expressed as follows:
109 Parameter 1 : command => DEFINED SCALAR(string)
110 Parameter 2 : desiredExitStatus => ONE OF
111 SCALAR(integer)
112 ARRAYREF(integer)
113 HASHREF(integer,string)
114 UNDEFINED
115 Parameter 3 : desiredOutput => SCALAR(string) OR UNDEFINED
116 Parameter 4 : exceptions => HASH(integer,string) OR UNDEFINED
117 Returns : SCALAR(integer) as defined by Test::ok(...)
119 The function treats the first parameter C<$command> as a command line
120 to execute as part of the test, it is executed only once and its exit
121 status (C<$?E<gt>E<gt>8>) and output are captured.
123 At this point if debugging is enabled the command, its exit status and
124 output are displayed to the tester.
126 C<checkCmd(...)> allows the testing of either the exit status or the
127 generated output or both, not testing either will result in neither
128 the C<Test::ok(...)> or C<Test::skip(...)> functions being called,
129 something you probably don't want. Note that each defined test
130 (C<$desiredExitStatus> and C<$desiredOutput>) results in a invocation
131 of either C<Test::ok(...)> or C<Test::skip(...)>, so remember this
132 when counting the number of tests to place in the C<Test::plan(...)>
133 call.
135 Many Monitoring Plugins test network services, some of which may not be
136 present on all systems. To cater for this, C<checkCmd(...)> allows the
137 tester to define exceptions based on the command's exit status. These
138 exceptions are provided to skip tests if the test case developer
139 believes the service is not being provided. For example, if a site
140 does not have a POP3 server, the test harness could map the
141 appropriate exit status to a useful message the person running the
142 tests, telling the reason the test is being skipped.
144 Example:
146 my %exceptions = ( 2 =E<gt> "No POP Server present?" );
148 $t += checkCmd( "./check_pop I<some args>", 0, undef, %exceptions );
150 Thus, in the above example, an exit status of 2 does not result in a
151 failed test case (as the exit status is not the desired value of 0),
152 but a skipped test case with the message "No POP Server present?"
153 given as the reason.
155 Sometimes the exit status of a command should be tested against a set
156 of possible values, rather than a single value, this could especially
157 be the case in failure testing. C<checkCmd(...)> support two methods
158 of testing against a set of desired exit status values.
160 =over
162 =item *
164 Firstly, if C<$desiredExitStatus> is a reference to an array of exit
165 stati, if the actual exit status of the command is present in the
166 array, it is used in the call to C<Test::ok(...)> when testing the
167 exit status.
169 =item *
171 Alternatively, if C<$desiredExitStatus> is a reference to a hash of
172 exit stati (mapped to the strings "continue" or "skip"), similar
173 processing to the above occurs with the side affect of determining if
174 any generated output testing should proceed. Note: only the string
175 "skip" will result in generated output testing being skipped.
177 =back
179 =item C<skipMissingCmd(...)>
181 If a command is missing and the test harness must C<Test::skip()> some
182 or all of the tests in a given test harness this function provides a
183 simple iterator to issue an appropriate message the requested number
184 of times.
186 =back
188 =item C<skipMsg(...)>
190 If for any reason the test harness must C<Test::skip()> some
191 or all of the tests in a given test harness this function provides a
192 simple iterator to issue an appropriate message the requested number
193 of times.
