subunit2sql 0.5.0

DB Setup

The usage of subunit2sql is split into 2 stages. First you need to prepare a database with the proper schema; subunit2sql-db-manage should be used to do this. The utility requires db connection info which can be specified on the command or with a config file. Obviously the sql connector type, user, password, address, and database name should be specific to your environment. subunit2sql-db-manage will use alembic to setup the db schema. You can run the db migrations with the command:

subunit2sql-db-manage --database-connection mysql://subunit:pass@127.0.0.1/subunit upgrade head

or with a config file:

subunit2sql-db-manage --config-file subunit2sql.conf upgrade head

This will bring the DB schema up to the latest version for subunit2sql. Also, it is worth noting that the schema migrations used in subunit2sql do not currently support sqlite. While it is possible to fix this, sqlite only supports a subset of the necessary sql calls used by the migration scripts. As such, maintaining support for sqlite will be a continual extra effort, so if support is added back in the future, it is no guarantee that it will remain. In addition, the performance of running, even in a testing capacity, subunit2sql with MySQL or Postgres make it worth the effort of setting up one of them to use subunit2sql.

Running subunit2sql

Once you have a database setup with the proper database schema you can then use the subunit2sql command to populate the database with data from your test runs. subunit2sql takes in a subunit v2 either through stdin or by passing it file paths as positional arguments to the script. If only a subunit v1 stream is available, it can be converted to a subunit v2 stream using the subunit-1to2 utility.

There are several options for running subunit2sql, they can be listed with:

subunit2sql --help

The only required options are the state_path and the database-connections. These options and the other can either be used on the CLI, or put in a config file. If a config file is used you need to specify the location on the CLI.

Most of the optional arguments deal with how subunit2sql interacts with the SQL DB. However, it is worth pointing out that the artifacts option and the run_meta option are used to pass additional metadata into the database for the run(s) being added. The artifacts option should be used to pass in a url or path that points to any logs or other external test artifacts related to the run being added. The run_meta option takes in a dictionary which will be added to the database as key value pairs associated with the run being added.
