Enable python regression test for Windows #6548

pull ptschip wants to merge 1 commits into bitcoin:master from ptschip:enable_win_py changing 4 files +14 −18
  1. ptschip commented at 5:07 pm on August 11, 2015: contributor

    Two files changed:

    1. rpc-test.sh - enable windows regression test and set env variable so that run-bitcoin-cli does not get invoked as python can not invoke this on a windows machine
    2. util.py - added handling of NUL files because /dev/null is not recognized on windows Also, although not required added some additional handling of cache files in the event that one or more are missing as happened while I was debugging.

    No need to close/open PRs to get them to rebuild, just force-push the changes.

    What’s the problem with run-bitcoin-cli on windows? Is it just that it’s missing an extension? If so, does making it a “.sh” fix the problem? The wrapper is necessary (at least on Linux) to compare output with expected EOLs.

    Do these tests pass on a native windows machine?

  3. ptschip commented at 5:58 pm on August 11, 2015: contributor

    run-bitcoin-cli does not run on native windows as a subprocess invoked from within python…hence the workaround to only invoke bitcoin-cli.exe directly on native windows.

    These tests run fine on native windows until it gets to rest.py where it “asserts”. I didn’t realize that all the tests had to pass in order to get this change in.

    I think the problem I’m seeing here in the travis build is the script is getting hung up when running the wallet.py test. I think i’ll update my master and rebuild then try it out again on my machine again.

    Rather than adding to the quirks here, it’d probably be easier to just move rpc-tests.sh/tests-config.sh/run-bitcoin-cli all to python, then use the vars directly. I think that would untangle this a bit.
  5. ptschip commented at 5:36 am on August 12, 2015: contributor

    I think on a more elegant solution…

    but first

    after i was able to compile the master-branch, i ran the py test suite on native windows and it works just fine with the exception of walletbackup.py (I’ll take a look at that tomorrow)..

    but the main problem appears to be that the very first python script get hung up during the Travis build process. Do you know if they are actually running the tests on native windows, or through some sort of windows emulation? I suspect the latter and that’s probably why they’re getting hung. I’ll take a further look.

    Migrating the scripts to Python is always a good thing in my book. +1

    Moving rpc-tests.sh to Python would definitively make sense. Should also work for the Makefile .in sources.

    I had to finally disable the windows tests because the syncing of nodes on windows is even worse during the Travis build. However the tests do run on a native windows machine if they are enabled in rpc-tests.sh

    I think this code is ready to be reviewed and merged. I’d prefer to clean up the already existing tangle of shell scripts and move everything to python in a separate pull if you all agree.

    I’m not sure either. I had put all those prints in there to help me debug and find issue 6554. When you run the python scripts they do help you to understand where the problem is happening. I’d like to leave them in for now but I was thinking that we need to update and standardize the logging of messages, maybe in the next pull after this one. I’m working on getting everything into python, maybe we can update the logging then?

    What is the reason to nest the for loop inside the if?

    ptschip commented at 3:24 pm on August 16, 2015:

    The purpose is to delete any old directories “if they exist” before creating the cache files anew. For instance, when I found this issue I was just beginning to debug the code and eventually found that for some reason only the cache for node0 had been created.
    The old code would assume that if the cache for node0 was found then everything was OK however the scripts woul fail later on. With the nested loop if a cache dir is found then it will be deleted so that in the next step all four can be recreated to ensure that the cache is complete.

    The ident was intentional. When you run the script it makes it easier to read the output lines and see what part of the script is running. But as I said, I think the whole logging of messages needs to be updated and standardized.

    I have the code ready which ports everything to python and gets rid of tests-config.sh and tests-config.sh.in, but I hesitate to include it with this pull as the changes are a little more substantial and not really related to just enabling tests for Windows.

    well, good question..i was just working on the assumption that nodes should sync within a few seconds and 120 seconds was far enough out that it would be obvious that there was a problem with syncing but I don’t know what the requirement really is for how long a node should take to sync…is there such a requirement?

    Tend to NACK. IMO to many changes to enable rpc tests on windows platform. Allow rpc test on windows would be valuable though.

    Maybe removing all unnecessary changes (refactoring, log informations, workaround) and just fix the minimum plus the root cause of #6554 (in the code and not in the tests). IMO a unit/RPC test should not use a workarounds to prevent from failing (main code should be fixed).

  30. theuni commented at 7:51 pm on August 20, 2015: member

    Agreed with @jonasschnelli. Don’t break the tests, fix the failures.

    Fwiw, this is necessary to get the tests passing via Wine in Linux with no futher work-arounds: https://github.com/theuni/bitcoin/commit/5d2f9fc158a85f7ed0d72ff46b9344df5304ca25 The fix is debatable, but it points out the issue and works to mitigate it.

    Fair enough, I’ve reverted back to just the minimum to get the tests working on Windows and pushed to GitHub for review. I left in one information message so that users can see where the nodes are as far as syncing and there was also one bug fix for the handling of the cache files which I left in.

    Actually it’s pretty useful to see where the scripts hang when/if the nodes don’t sync…otherwise the test just hangs there and then proceeds 10 or 15 minutes later without the user ever knowing there was a problem.

    jonasschnelli commented at 11:18 am on August 25, 2015:

    It’s half-correct. If RUN_TESTS is set to true, not only the unit tests also the rpc test get tested. Because this PR introduces Win32 compatibility of the rpc tests, and they don’t run properly on travis/Win32, they need to be disabled. But only the RPC tests (so maybe a new flag in travis.yml for RUN_RPC_TESTS).

    But much better it would be, if the RPC test would succeed on Win32/Travis. I’m pretty convinced that there must be a bug somewhere if the RPC tests do not succeed on Win32.


    ptschip commented at 1:04 pm on August 25, 2015:

    Wladimir,

    The underlying problem there is that due to issue #6554 the Travis build will timeout before the Windows tests can finish…(the nodes will not sync and will hang for anywhere between 15 to 20 minutes before the tests will continue). We can either disable the running of the windows tests in Travis or we can add the code back into the rpc-tests.sh to disable the windows tests by default but then the end users will have to edit rpc-tests.sh to re-enable to run the windows tests. The first method is not ideal but the second is a bit messy.

    Oh i see, so it also disables the Unit Tests? That’s not good.

    What about if I just add an option to rpc-tests.sh, so that we can keep the Windows regression tests diabled by default so they pass the Travis build, but can then enable them by the end user by passing a “-win” parameter? That gets around the problem of the Travis build failing and also means the end users doesn’t have to edit the shell script to get the tests to work…

    Are you saying you have a fix for issue 6554?

    The problem we have is not that the tests don’t pass but that they don’t pass before the Travis build times out. When the nodes don’t sync, it can take up to 15 minutes or longer before the tests can resume, on Windows, that is.

    Travis doesn’t run the Windows tests on Windows. It runs them with Wine in Linux.

    When running the Windows tests with Wine in Linux on my machine, the tests time-out. With the fix above, they work as expected.

    I can’t vouch for native Windows, but I would expect Travis to be happy after that change.

  44. theuni commented at 3:26 pm on August 25, 2015: member

    I think it’ll be easier if I just open a separate PR, since these are somewhat different issues. Once Travis is running the Windows tests successfully, it’ll be easier to fix them up for native Windows anyway.
