This patch adds an extensive array of tests for the Cassandra feature that Scylla hasn't implemented yet (issues #2962, #8745, #10707) of indexing the keys, values or entries of a collection column. The goal of these tests is to explicitly exercise every corner case I could think of by looking at the documentation of this feature and considering its possible implementation - and as usual, making sure that the tests actually pass on Cassandra. These tests overlap some of the existing unit tests that we translated from Cassandra, as well as some randomized tests that do not necessarily cover the same edge cases as these tests cover. All tests added in this patch pass on Cassandra, but currently fail on Scylla due to the above issues. Signed-off-by: Nadav Har'El <nyh@scylladb.com> Closes #10771
Single-node functional tests for Scylla's CQL features.
These tests use the Python CQL library and the pytest frameworks. By using an actual CQL library for the tests, they can be run against any implementation of CQL - both Scylla and Cassandra. Most tests - except in rare cases - should pass on both, to ensure that Scylla is compatible with Cassandra in most features.
To run all tests against an already-running local installation of Scylla
or Cassandra on localhost, just run pytest. The "--host" and "--port"
can be used to give a different location for the running Scylla or Cassanra.
The "--ssl" option can be used to use an encrypted (TLSv1.2) connection.
More conveniently, we have two scripts - "run" and "run-cassandra" - which do all the work necessary to start Scylla or Cassandra (respectively), and run the tests on them. The Scylla or Cassandra process is run in a temporary directory which is automatically deleted when the test ends.
"run" automatically picks the most recently compiled version of Scylla in
build/*/scylla - but this choice of Scylla executable can be overridden with
the SCYLLA environment variable. "run-cassandra" defaults to running the
command cassandra from the user's path, but this can be overriden by setting
the CASSANDRA environment variable to the path of the cassandra script,
e.g., export CASSANDRA=$HOME/apache-cassandra-3.11.10/bin/cassandra.
A few of the tests also require the nodetool when running on Cassandra -
this tool is again expected to be in the user's path, or be overridden with
the NODETOOL environment variable. Nodetool is not needed to test
Scylla.
Additional options can be passed to "pytest" or to "run" / "run-cassandra" to control which tests to run:
- To run all tests in a single file, do
pytest test_table.py. - To run a single specific test, do
pytest test_table.py::test_create_table_unsupported_names. - To run the same test or tests 100 times, add the
--count=100option. This is faster than runningrun100 times, because Scylla is only run once, and also counts for you how many of the runs failed. Forpytestto support the--countoption, you need to install a pytest extension:pip install pytest-repeat
Additional useful pytest options, especially useful for debugging tests:
- -v: show the names of each individual test running instead of just dots.
- -s: show the full output of running tests (by default, pytest captures the test's output and only displays it if a test fails)
