Original idea was to include - other VL through a seperate class/file in - https://github.com/hsdenx/tbot/tree/master/src/lab_api - but it turned out, that if we say "ssh" is the standard way to connect - to a VL, we can integrate the VL specific tasks through testcases, see - above, so we should do: - - rename the "denx" API to a more general name. - This is a point on my ToDo list ... done, renamed to 'ssh_std' - - - the VL specific configuration may moved from the board config files - and should be collected in VL specific config files, which boards - config file simple include. - -- prepare password.py file: - This file contains all passwords tbot needs (for example for - linux login on the boards) - tbot searches this file in the tbot root directory. - It is a simple python file, for example: - - # passwords for the lab - if (board == 'lab'): - if (user == 'hs'): - password = 'passwordforuserhs' - if (user == 'root'): - password = 'passwordforrootuser' - # passwords for the boards - elif (board == 'mcx'): - if (user == 'root'): - password = 'passwordformcxrootfs' - else: - if (user == 'root'): - password = '' - -- prepare board config file - Each board which is found in the VL needs a tbot configuration file - pass the config file name with the option '-c' to tbot, tbot searches - in the root dir for them. - - board Example (dxr2 board): - https://github.com/hsdenx/tbot/blob/master/tbot_dxr2.cfg - - Necessary variables: - - line 3: boardname, here it is the "etamin" board - no default value, must be set. - line 4: boardlabname: name used for connecting to the board - may differ from tb.boardname, default tb.boardname - line 5: boardlabpowername: name used for power on/off - may differ from tb.boardname, default tb.boardname - line 6: tftpboardname: name used for tftp subdir (from where - U-Boot loads images for example). - may differ from tb.boardname, default tb.boardname - line 7: labprompt: linux prompt tbot sets - no defaultvalue, must be set (maybe we should introduce - "ttbott" as default ... - line 8: debug: If True, adds debug output on the tbot shell - line 9: debugstatus: enable status debug output on the shell - line 10: ip: Where tbot finds the Lab PC - line 11: user: As which user does tbot logs into the Lab PC - line 12: accept_all: passed to paramiko, accept all connections - line 13: keepalivetimout: passed to paramiko, timeout for sending - keepalive message. - line 14: channel_timeout: passed to paramiko - line 15: loglevel: tbots loglevel for adding entries into the logfile. - line 17: wdt_timeout: timeout in seconds for tbots watchdog. - Watchdog gets triggered if prompt get read. - line 24: tc_lab_denx_connect_to_board_tc: Which TC is used for - connecting to the boards console the TC, here: - https://github.com/hsdenx/tbot/blob/master/src/tc/tc_workfd_connect_with_kermit.py - line 27: uboot_prompt: boards U-Boot prompt - line 28: linux_prompt: boards linux prompt - - Now comes a list of variables TC needs, this vary from which TC - you start on the board. - -Thats it ... you now can call tbot and hopefully, it works ;-) -Find an example log [3] for calling simple U-Boot TC for setting -an U-Boot Environmentvariable. - -If you have problems in setting tbot up, please contact me -(and may give me ssh access to your Lab PC ;-) - -If you have running your first TC [3], you may want to write now your own -TC (and hopefully share them), so continue with: -u-boot:tools/tbot/README.create_a_new_testcase - -Heiko Schocher <hs@denx.de> -v2 2016.04.26 - --------------- - -[1] tbot Dokumentation: - [2] u-boot:/tools/tbot/README - https://github.com/hsdenx/tbot/blob/master/README.md - tbot-devel@googlegroups.com - -[3] Example for a first U-Boot TC which should always work: - (with commandline option "-v" for verbose output): -hs@localhost:tbot [event-devel] $ python2.7 src/common/tbot.py -c tbot_dxr2.cfg -t tc_ub_setenv.py -v -l log/tbot.log -**** option cfg: tbot_dxr2.cfg log: log/tbot.log tc: tc_ub_setenv.py v 1 -('CUR WORK PATH: ', '/home/hs/data/Entwicklung/tbot') -('CFGFILE ', 'tbot_dxr2.cfg') -('LOGFILE ', '/home/hs/data/Entwicklung/tbot/log/tbot.log') -tb_ctrl: Last login: Mon Apr 25 14:52:42 2016 from 87.97.29.27 -************************************************************* -BDI2000 Assignment: (last updated: 2015-11-20 12:30 MET) -bdi1 => techem bdi2 => cetec_mx25 bdi3 => lpc3250 -bdi4 => - bdi5 => --Rev.B!-- bdi6 => tqm5200s -bdi7 => [stefano] bdi8 => smartweb bdi9 => sigmatek-nand -bdi10 => pcm052 bdi11 => socrates bdi12 => aristainetos -bdi13 => imx53 bdi14 => ib8315 bdi15 => cairo -bdi16 => g2c1 bdi17 => lwe090 bdi18 => symphony -bdi19 => dxr2 bdi20 => ima3-mx6 bdi21 => sama5d3 -bdi98 => - bdi99 => - bdi0 => - -Please power off unused systems when you leave!
