Hi!
After the initial hint [1] describing the very first steps with
tmt let's have a look at the available test execution options.
The following user story was at the very beginning of tmt:
As a tester or developer, I want to easily run tests
in my preferred environment.
Do you want to safely run tests without breaking your laptop? Use
the default provision method 'virtual' which will execute tests
under a virtual machine using libvirt with the help of testcloud:
tmt run
Would you like to execute tests a bit faster and don't need the
full virtualization support? Run them in a container using podman:
tmt run --all provision --how container
Do you have an already prepared box where everything's ready for
testing and you often ssh to it to experiment safely?
tmt run --all provision --how connect --guest my.test.box
Do you know exactly what the tests are doing and feel safe to
quickly run them directly on your localhost?
tmt run -a provision -h local
Note that some provision methods require additional dependencies.
Installing them is easy as well:
sudo dnf install -y tmt-provision-container
sudo dnf install -y tmt-provision-virtual
See the tmt guide [2] and examples [3] for some more inspiration.
Happy testing! :-)
