# Running SerenityOS Tests There are two classes of tests built during a SerenityOS build: host tests and target tests. Host tests run on the build machine, and use [Lagom](../Meta/Lagom/ReadMe.md) to build SerenityOS userspace libraries for the host platform. Target tests run on the SerenityOS machine, either emulated or bare metal. ## Running Host Tests There are two ways to build host tests: from a full build, or from a Lagom-only build. The only difference is the CMake command used to initialize the build directory. For a full build, pass `-DBUILD_LAGOM=ON` to the CMake command. ```sh mkdir -p Build/lagom cd Build/lagom cmake ../.. -GNinja -DBUILD_LAGOM=ON ``` For a Lagom-only build, pass the Lagom directory to CMake. The `BUILD_LAGOM` CMake option is still required. ```sh mkdir BuildLagom cd BuildLagom cmake ../Meta/Lagom -GNinja -DBUILD_LAGOM=ON ``` In both cases, the tests can be run via ninja after doing a build. Note that `test-js` requires the `SERENITY_SOURCE_DIR` environment variable to be set to the root of the serenity source tree when running on a non-SerenityOS host. ```sh # /path/to/serenity repository export SERENITY_SOURCE_DIR=${PWD}/.. ninja && ninja test ``` To see the stdout/stderr output of failing tests, the recommended way is to set the environment variable [`CTEST_OUTPUT_ON_FAILURE`](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/manual/ctest.1.html#options) to 1. ```sh CTEST_OUTPUT_ON_FAILURE=1 ninja test # or, using ctest directly... ctest --output-on-failure ``` ### Running with Sanitizers CI runs host tests with Address Sanitizer and Undefined Sanitizer instrumentation enabled. These tools catch many classes of common C++ errors, including memory leaks, out of bounds access to stack and heap allocations, and signed integer overflow. For more info on the sanitizers, check out the Address Sanitizer [wiki page](https://github.com/google/sanitizers/wiki), or the Undefined Sanitizer [documentation](https://clang.llvm.org/docs/UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer.html) from clang. Note that a sanitizer build will take significantly longer than a non-santizer build, and will mess with caches in tools such as `ccache`. The sanitizers can be enabled with the `-DENABLE_FOO_SANITIZER` set of flags. Sanitizers are only supported for Lagom tests, as SerenityOS support for gcc's `libsanitizer` is not yet implemented. ```sh mkdir BuildLagom cd BuildLagom cmake ../Meta/Lagom -GNinja -DBUILD_LAGOM=ON -DENABLE_ADDRESS_SANITIZER=ON -DENABLE_UNDEFINED_SANITIZER=ON ninja CTEST_OUTPUT_ON_FAILURE=1 SERENITY_SOURCE_DIR=${PWD}/.. ninja test ``` To ensure that Undefined Sanitizer errors fail the test, the `halt_on_error` flag should be set to 1 in the environment variable `UBSAN_OPTIONS`. ```sh UBSAN_OPTIONS=halt_on_error=1 CTEST_OUTPUT_ON_FAILURE=1 SERENITY_SOURCE_DIR=${PWD}/.. ninja test ``` ## Running Target Tests Tests built for the SerenityOS target get installed either into `/usr/Tests` or `/bin`. `/usr/Tests` is preferred, but some system tests are installed into `/bin` for historical reasons. The easiest way to run all of the known tests in the system is to use the `run-tests-and-shutdown.sh` script that gets installed into `/home/anon/tests`. When running in CI, the environment variable `$DO_SHUTDOWN_AFTER_TESTS` is set, which will run `shutdown -n` after running all the tests. For completeness, a basic on-target test run will need the SerenityOS image built and run via QEMU. ```sh mkdir Build/i686 cd Build/i686 cmake ../.. -GNinja ninja install && ninja image && ninja run ``` In the initial terminal, one can easily run the test runner script: ``` courage ~ $ ./tests/run-tests-and-shutdown.sh === Running Tests on SerenityOS === ... ``` CI runs the tests in self-test mode, using the 'ci' run options and the TestRunner entry in /etc/SystemServer.ini to run tests automatically on startup. The system server entry looks as below: ```ini [TestRunner@ttyS0] Executable=/home/anon/tests/run-tests-and-shutdown.sh StdIO=/dev/ttyS0 Environment=DO_SHUTDOWN_AFTER_TESTS=1 TERM=xterm PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin User=anon WorkingDirectory=/home/anon BootModes=self-test ``` `/dev/ttyS0` is used as stdio because that serial port is connected when qemu is run with `-display none` and `-nographic`, and output to it will show up in the stdout of the qemu window. Separately, the CI run script redirects the serial debug output to `./debug.log` so that both stdout of the tests and the dbgln from the kernel/tests can be captured. To run with CI's TestRunner system server entry, SerenityOS needs booted in self-test mode. Running the following shell lines will boot SerenityOS in self-test mode, run tests, and exit. ```sh export SERENITY_RUN=ci export SERENITY_KERNEL_CMDLINE="boot_mode=self-test" ninja run ```
