Automated test setup

An automated test system is setup on tustin.iau.dtu.dk. The test consists of a number of scripts testing various features of the Mobotware software. The test is run hourly by a cron job and output is directed to a homepage. The cron job is setup on a Linux system by running crontab -e and adding the following line:

00 * * * * /path/to/scripts/byg-check

Compile test

To test that all programs in the standard Mobotware package compiles as intended the script byg-check is used.

#!/bin/bash

WEB_PATH=/path/to/output/page.html
RUN_TIME=`date`

cd /path/to/scripts
svn up > /dev/null

make clean > /dev/null

rm -f err.log
cat text.html > out.html
echo $RUN_TIME >> out.html
make > /dev/null 2> err.log
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
  echo "<hr><h2>Compile status: SUCCESS</h2>" >> out.html
else
  echo "<hr><h2>Compile status: FAILED</h2><hr><b>Error-log:</b><br>" >> out.html
  cat err.log >> out.html
fi

echo "</body></html>" >> out.html
cp out.html $WEB_PATH

exit 0

Simulator test

A test run is done in the simulator to check odometry and laser based localisation. To run the simulator without a display a virtual frame buffer is created using Xvfb.

The script is:

#!/bin/bash
rm -f log
Xvfb :100 &
FRAMEPID=$!
export DISPLAY=:100
build/bin/rhd rhdconfig.maze.xml >simlog 2>simerr &
RHDPID=$!
sleep 5
build/bin/ulmsserver -a > /dev/null 2> /dev/null &
ULMPID=$!
sleep 5
build/bin/mrc -s0  test >mrclog 2>mrcerrlog
grep "1.0" log
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
   RETVAL=1
else
   grep "2.0" log
   if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
     RETVAL=2
   else
     RETVAL=0
   fi
fi

kill $FRAMEPID $RHDPID $ULMPID

exit $RETVAL

The mrc program test is a smrcl script that drives the robot around a predefined pattern:

laser "setinitpose x=-0.2 y=0.5 th=0.0"
laser "setinitcov Cx=0.004 Cy=0.004 Cth=0.01"
laser "push t='1.0' cmd='localize'"
