Overview

Skiplist Generator (skipgen) is a program that will generate a skiplist given a yaml file and optionally a board name, branch name, and environment name.

Download and Install

Download release for your OS and architecture at https://github.com/Linaro/skipgen/releases. Extract and run the 'skipfile' binary.

Usage

skipgen [--board <boardname>] [--branch <branchname>] [--environment <environmentname] [--version] <skipfile.yaml>

Example Usage

Show all skips available:

$ skipgen examples/skipfile.yaml
breakpoint_test_arm64
ftracetest
fw_filesystem.sh
pstore_tests
run.sh
run_fuse_test.sh
run_vmtests
seccomp_bpf
...

Show skips that apply to the x15 board in the production environment and branch 4.4:

$ skipgen --board=x15 --environment=staging --branch=4.4 examples/skipfile.yaml
run_vmtests
seccomp_bpf

Skipfile Format

See examples/skipfile.yaml.

Building

1. Install golang. i.e. on debian-based systems, run apt-get install golang.
2. Set GOPATH. See https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/SettingGOPATH.
3. Install go dependencies. go get -t ./...
4. install golint. go get -u github.com/golang/lint/golint Don't forget to setup the path PATH="$GOPATH/bin:$PATH"
5. make skipgen
6. ./skipgen

Testing

skipgen includes unit tests that can be run using go test. The make test target will also run 'go vet' and 'golint'. golint may need to be installed (go get -u github.com/golang/lint/golint)

Releasing

Create a release in github, and then run the following locally to build and upload the binaries to the release, where 'v0.1.2' is the recent tag:
