Steps

• Log into the Jenkins builder server

• Install pytest on the builder server with following command:

  • pip install pytest==4.6.0 # 4.6.0 is the latest pytest version supporting Python 2

• Git clone the target repo: https://github.com/changtengfei/demo_github_jenkins_repo

• Create a folder in the root directory called “test“

• Create a file called “test_dummy.py“ under “test“ folder

• Write the test script following the document online at: http://pytest.org/en/latest/

  • Here is an example test script

    import pytest import os def syscall(cmd): print '>>> {0}'.format(cmd) os.system(cmd) def test_compilation(): result = syscall("echo compilation...") assert result == None def test_bootload(): result = syscall("echo bootload...") assert result == None def test_communication(): result = syscall("echo communication...") assert result == None

• Setup a Jenkins job (read Jenkins/GitHub Integration), under “Build Step”, create a script and run command pytest
