Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more apparent, the technical solutions of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to specific embodiments of the present application and corresponding drawings. It will be apparent that the described embodiments are only some, but not all, embodiments of the application. All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the application without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the application.
The following describes in detail the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present application with reference to the accompanying drawings.
As shown in fig. 1, an embodiment of the present application provides an automatic test method for a network device, including:
s101, initializing and configuring the tested functional modules.
It should be noted that, in the conventional automatic test process for the network device, the test topology of the functional modules is consistent with the initialization configuration, the test topology is used to describe the relationship and connection manner between the functional modules, and the connection manner and configuration of the modules in the test environment, and the test topology may take different forms, such as a topology chart, a network chart, or a document. By using the test topology, the method can help to determine the range and strategy of the test in the test process, better organize and manage the test work and improve the test efficiency and accuracy.
It should be noted that, the network device may be a switch, a router, a firewall, etc., and when executing test cases, the first step is to perform initialization configuration on the modules, but if each test case is executed, a process of initializing the module or resetting the test topology is performed once, which wastes a lot of time and labor costs in the initialization, and affects the efficiency of the test.
Therefore, when testing the network device, the functional module needs to be tested separately and independently, only the operation of initializing the module or resetting the test topology is executed once by taking the module as a unit, and each test case is not executed any more, and the configuration executed in the test process of the test case is restored only after the execution of each test case is finished, so that the configuration after the initialization of the module is restored, and the next test case is ensured not to be influenced when being executed.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 2, a test case is executed based on a module, a test requirement of a functional module is acquired, a configuration file of a corresponding initialization configuration is created according to the test requirement, and the initialization configuration is performed on the functional module based on the configuration file of the initialization configuration.
The test requirement of the functional module is a preset requirement on the function and performance of the network device, and the function of the network device is tested to see whether the requirement meets the expected requirement, including the requirements on the basic functions (such as a routing function, a switching function, a firewall function and the like) of the network device, the support of a protocol, the transmission and processing of data and the like.
Further, creating a file directory, naming the file directory by taking the function module as a unit, and storing the configuration file of the initialization configuration under the file directory. For example, the module name of the tested function module is a mac module, and the created file directory is./ mac, and the initialization profile is./ mac/config.
S102, executing a test process on the functional module through a test case, wherein the test case comprises a plurality of test steps.
Specifically, a test case corresponding to the functional module is obtained, and the functional module is tested according to the test case. The test case comprises a plurality of test steps when being executed, and a recovery interface is required to be set to recover the configuration of the functional module in the test case execution process in order to ensure that the configuration of the functional module is recovered to the initialized state after the test case execution is finished.
It should be noted that, all test cases tested on the network device include test cases for each functional module, and corresponding test cases need to be determined according to different functional modules, and the test cases are executed according to the functional modules during testing so as to separately test each functional module of the network device.
In addition, program abnormality may occur during the test, resulting in deviation in the execution of the test steps. For example, when a test case is executed, an abnormality occurs in a certain test step, and a corresponding problem also occurs in a subsequent test step.
Therefore, in order to avoid the deviation of the configuration recovery of the functional module caused by the occurrence of the abnormality in the test execution process, a corresponding recovery interface needs to be set for each test step in the test case, and when the program abnormality occurs in the execution test step, the recovery interface corresponding to the abnormal test step can be directly called to recover the configuration of the functional module.
S103, when determining to trigger a test stopping event, the corresponding specified test step is carried out.
Specifically, the server executes the test case, and determines the corresponding designated test step when the test stop event is triggered according to the execution state. The stop event comprises a test completion event and a test exception event, wherein the test completion event refers to that the normal execution of the test case is completed, and no exception occurs; the abnormal event is that program abnormality occurs in the execution process of the test case.
More specifically, as shown in fig. 3, if each test step of the test case is normally executed during the execution of the test case, a test completion event is triggered when the execution of the last test step is completed. If program abnormality occurs in executing a certain test step in the process of executing the test case, triggering a test abnormal event, capturing the occurrence of the abnormality, and finding out an abnormal test step corresponding to the triggering test abnormal event according to the abnormality.
S104, based on the trigger of the configured recovery interface in the specified test step, recovering the configuration executed by the test case in the test process.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 3, if it is determined that the test completion event is triggered, the recovery interface of the last test step is called to recover the configuration executed by the test case in the test process to the configuration initialized by the functional module. If the triggering test abnormal event is determined, calling a recovery interface of the abnormal test step corresponding to the triggering test abnormal event, and skipping the subsequent test step to directly recover the configuration to the initialized state.
It should be noted that, when a program exception occurs in executing a certain test step during the execution of the test case, the test case already determines that the execution is wrong, and the subsequent test step will also execute the error, so that in order to save the test time, the reply interface of the exception test step is directly called, and the subsequent test step is skipped.
Further, as shown in fig. 4, after the test case is executed, in order to verify whether the configuration of the functional module is successfully restored, that is, restored to the initialized state, the configuration file stored before needs to be compared with the configuration file of the current configuration.
Specifically, the configuration file of the corresponding initialization configuration is obtained through the file directory of the previously set saved initialization configuration file. And acquiring a configuration file of the current configuration of the functional module, and comparing the configuration file of the initialization configuration with the configuration file of the current configuration. If the configuration is consistent, the configuration recovery is successful, and other test cases of the functional module are continuously executed; if the configuration is inconsistent, the configuration is not recovered successfully, the configuration file of the initialized configuration is used for covering the restarting configuration file of the network equipment, and then the network equipment is restarted to recover the initialized configuration.
It should be noted that, a default restart configuration file is generally set in the device, and when accidental restart or reset of the device is prevented, a pre-saved configuration file can be automatically loaded, so that after the default restart configuration file is covered by the configuration file of the initialization configuration and the network device is restarted, the function module can automatically load the configuration file of the initialization configuration and perform initialization, thus saving the operation and time of file configuration and quickly recovering the function module to the initialized state.
Furthermore, after all the test cases corresponding to the functional module are executed, the test of the functional module is completed, and in order to facilitate the test of other functional modules, the initialization configuration of the functional module is deleted, so that the resources of the network equipment are released, the resource waste is avoided, the mutual influence among the functional modules during the test is avoided, and the independence and the repeatability of the test are maintained.
By initializing the functional module in the network equipment, the repeatability and stability of the test can be ensured when the network equipment is automatically tested, the test effect is better, the environment conditions required by the test can be provided, the influence of old data on the test result is avoided, and the reliability and consistency of the test are ensured.
When the test case is executed, a recovery interface is configured for each test step, so that when a test stopping event is triggered, the configuration executed in the test process of the test case can be recovered based on the triggering of the recovery interface corresponding to the test step, the function module is ensured to recover to an initialized state when the next test case is executed, the test time is saved, the test efficiency is improved, and the test stability is also improved.
As shown in fig. 5, the embodiment of the present application further provides an automatic test device for a network device, including:
at least one processor; and
A memory communicatively coupled to the at least one processor; wherein,
The memory stores instructions executable by the at least one processor to enable the at least one processor to perform operations such as: the method for automatically testing network equipment according to any one of the embodiments.
