concise-autotest

This repository contains functional/integration tests for concise. It also includes github action workflows for automatically running these tests whenever a new collection gets associated to the concise UMM-S record.

How it works

  1. Every 5 minutes the cmr_association_diff.py script is run against UAT and OPS. This script looks at the collection concept ids in tests/cmr/concise/*_associations.txt and compares them to the associations in CMR (see diff.yml)
  2. For every collection concept id that exists in CMR association but does NOT exist in the .txt file in this repository, a new PR is opened in this repository with the new collection concept id as the title and branch name.
  3. When a pull request is created or updated in this repository and the base branch name starts with diff/uat or diff/ops, the tests will be executed for that collection (see verify.yml)
  4. The results of the test will be recorded as a status check for the PR
    1. If all tests pass: The pr will be labeled verified and automatically merged
    2. If any test fails or has an unknown error: The pr will be labeled bug and failed verification and will remain open
    3. If any tests are skipped: The pr will be labeled unverified and will remain open

What to do if tests fail

If a test fails, meaning an assertion did not succeed, or an unknown error occurs action must be taken. The cause of the failure should be determined and fixed. A failing test generally indicates an issue with either metadata or concise itself and may require additional steps. In some cases, the test may need to be updated to account for a unique edge case.

What to do if tests are skipped

Generally a skipped test indicates that verification was unable to complete. There are a few situations where tests get skipped (for example: in UAT if there are no UMM-Var records associated to the collection) When this happens, one of two things can be done:

  • Comment on the PR explaining why it is ok to not verify that collection and ask a repository admin to manually merge the PR
  • Fix the reason that caused the test to be skipped. For example, if it was skipped because there are no UMM-Var entries in UAT, then add UMM-Var entries to UAT and re-run the failed check
