- we agreed to basically throw away the old log checker (as it is
unmaintainable)
- now: provide list of analysis to do
* all checkers in cls_log_analysis, can be unit tested (see also next
commit)
* looked up dynamically to simplify adding of new tests + config
* configured with
<analysis>
<services>DESCRIPTION [DESCRIPTION...]</services>
<service>DESCRIPTION</service>
...
</analysis>
where DESCRIPTION follows service=func[=options]:
- service is name of service to check
- func is function to call, which receives filename
- option are arbitary options to pass to func
<services> is whitespace delimited (so can take multiple service
analysis definitions)
<service> exists to allow service definitions with whitespace
changes that would not work in <services>
- I initially planned to check return code, but most softmodems actually
exit with non-zero return code, so this is still TODO
- Default analyzer (checking for assertions, ...) is always run if a
service is listed
- checks for file size
- add unit tests
This document outlines how to use the OAI CI framework and gives a quickstart.

Quickstart
There is a script main.py that
- reads scenario files from XML
- executes the steps (e.g., deployment of CN/gNB/UE, attach, ping, ...)
To simplify, a script run_locally.sh can be used to run a single scenario
locally. First, download images for gNB&UE (we assume you already downloaded
the CN) and tag them "latest", which is expected by run_locally.sh:
docker pull oaisoftwarealliance/oai-gnb:develop
docker tag oaisoftwarealliance/oai-gnb:develop oai-gnb
docker pull oaisoftwarealliance/oai-nr-ue:develop
docker tag oaisoftwarealliance/oai-nr-ue:develop oai-nr-ue
Now, run the scenario:
cd ~/openairinterface5g/ci-scripts/
./run_locally.sh xml_files/container_5g_rfsim_simple.xml
Output should look like

it will run an end-to-end test, connecting one UE to the gNB, and ping, before
undeploying. As shown, logs will be under
/home/richie/oai/cmake_targets/log/container_5g_rfsim_simple.xml.d/. The
python code also produces an HTML report in ci-scripts/test_results.html.
Running with local changes
In order to run the tests as above, with local changes, please build images locally.
It is not yet possible to override an existing image with changes made locally to a source file and run it directly through the CI framework. However, it is possible to override an existing image with local changes, and run the scenario manually following the console logs steps provided above. This is described in the 5G RFsimulator README.
