Module for running arbitrary tests
Print out the data passed into the function *args and `kwargs, this is used to both test the publication data and cli argument passing, but also to display the information available within the publication data. Returns {"args": args, "kwargs": kwargs}.
CLI Example:
salt '*' test.arg 1 "two" 3.1 txt="hello" wow='{a: 1, b: "hello"}'
Print out the data passed into the function *args and `kwargs, this is used to both test the publication data and cli argument passing, but also to display the information available within the publication data. Returns {"args": repr(args), "kwargs": repr(kwargs)}.
CLI Example:
salt '*' test.arg_repr 1 "two" 3.1 txt="hello" wow='{a: 1, b: "hello"}'
Print out the types of the args and kwargs. This is used to test the types of the args and kwargs passed down to the minion
Execute the collatz conjecture from the passed starting number, returns the sequence and the time it took to compute. Used for performance tests.
CLI Example:
salt '*' test.collatz 3
Return the value for test.foo in the minion configuration file, or return the default value
CLI Example:
salt '*' test.conf_test
Execute a minion function via the __salt__ object in the test module, used to verify that the minion functions can be called via the __salt__ module.
CLI Example:
salt '*' test.cross_test file.gid_to_group 0
Return a string - used for testing the connection
CLI Example:
salt '*' test.echo 'foo bar baz quo qux'
Return a Fibonacci sequence up to the passed number, and the timeit took to compute in seconds. Used for performance tests
CLI Example:
salt '*' test.fib 3
Return the configuration options passed to this minion
CLI Example:
salt '*' test.get_opts
Print out the data passed into the function **kwargs, this is used to both test the publication data and cli kwarg passing, but also to display the information available within the publication data.
CLI Example:
salt '*' test.kwarg num=1 txt="two" env='{a: 1, b: "hello"}'
List the modules that were not loaded by the salt loader system
CLI Example:
salt '*' test.not_loaded
Return an opts package with the grains and opts for this minion. This is primarily used to create the options used for master side state compiling routines
CLI Example:
salt '*' test.opts_pkg
Test the outputter, pass in data to return
CLI Example:
salt '*' test.outputter foobar
Just used to make sure the minion is up and responding Return True
CLI Example:
salt '*' test.ping
Pass in a function name to discover what provider is being used
CLI Example:
salt '*' test.provider service
Return a dict of the provider names and the files that provided them
CLI Example:
salt '*' test.providers
Sleep for a random number of seconds, used to test long-running commands and minions returning at differing intervals
CLI Example:
salt '*' test.rand_sleep 60
Test that the returncode system is functioning correctly
CLI Example:
salt '*' test.retcode 42
Instruct the minion to initiate a process that will sleep for a given period of time.
CLI Example:
salt '*' test.sleep 20
Echo a string to a specific tty
CLI Example:
salt '*' test.tty tty0 'This is a test'
salt '*' test.tty pts3 'This is a test'
Return the version of salt on the minion
CLI Example:
salt '*' test.version
Returns versions of components used by salt as a dict
CLI Example:
salt '*' test.versions_information
Returns versions of components used by salt
CLI Example:
salt '*' test.versions_report
