Travis CI Tests
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
This directory contains a script `run_tests.sh` that is executed by Travis CI.
|
|
The script builds a test firmware, deploys it on one of the test servers and
|
|
runs it.
|
|
|
|
The script will not return an error if deployment to one of the test servers has
|
|
failed. It is done this way not to fail a build if a test server is down.
|
|
The script will return an error if deployment was successful but tests failed.
|
|
|
|
Test servers
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Test server is a linux host that is accessible from the Internet by a static IP.
|
|
It should have at least one ESP8266 module connected to a USB port. The module
|
|
should be capable restarting and switching to boot mode via a serial port.
|
|
All popular **NodeMCU** and **Wemos** modules will work.
|
|
|
|
To run tests on a server it should provide SSH access. SSH daemon should be
|
|
configured to authenticate using keys.
|
|
|
|

### Test server requirements
|
|
|
|
* Linux host
|
|
* Public static IP
|
|
* One or two ESP8266 modules connected to USB ports
|
|
* SSH access from the Internet (with public key from Travis CI)
|
|
* Python3
|
|
* [esptool.py] installed `pip install esptool`
|
|
* pySerial python module `pip3 install pyserial`
|
|
|
|
### Create SSH keys for Travis
|
|
|
|
[Here][travis-ssh-deploy] is a good article about Travis deployment using SSH.
|
|
|
|
The problem with SSH access from Travis to a server is that it should have
|
|
a private key. But this key should not be publicly available.
|
|
|
|
Hopefully Travis allows to encrypt certain files and only decrypt them at build
|
|
stage. So the sensitive file is stored in the repository encrypted.
|
|
|
|
Generate a new key pair:
|
|
```bash
|
|
ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C '<repo>@travis-ci.org' -f ./<server_name>_rsa
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To encrypt a private key you need a command line Travis client.
|
|
|
|
To install it run:
|
|
```bash
|
|
gem install travis
|
|
```
|
|
Or refer [the official installation instructions][travis-install].
|
|
|
|
The following command will encrypt a file and modify .travis.yml:
|
|
```bash
|
|
travis encrypt-file <server_name>_rsa --add
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Deploy public key to a test server:
|
|
```bash
|
|
ssh-copy-id -i <server_name>_rsa.pub <ssh-user>@<deploy-host>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Add the following lines in the .travis.yml:
|
|
```yml
|
|
addons:
|
|
ssh_known_hosts: <server_ip>
|
|
```
|
|
```yml
|
|
before_install:
|
|
- openssl aes-256-cbc aes-256-cbc -K $encrypted_<...>_key -iv $encrypted_<...>_iv -in <server_name>_rsa.enc -out /tmp/<server_name>_rsa -d
|
|
- eval "$(ssh-agent -s)"
|
|
- chmod 600 /tmp/<server_name>_rsa
|
|
- ssh-add /tmp/<server_name>_rsa
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Remove keys and stage files for commit:
|
|
```bash
|
|
rm -f <server_name>_rsa <server_name>_rsa.pub
|
|
git add <server_name>_rsa.enc .travis.yml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Add test server
|
|
|
|
The final step is to add a server to the test runner script.
|
|
Add a new item into an array in `run_tests.sh`:
|
|
```bash
|
|
TEST_SERVERS[2]="IP=<server_ip>;User=<ssh_user_name>;Type=<solo|dual>"
|
|
```
