[ptt-users] Stress Test data from input file

[Thieme.Geoff]

I tested and found that self.agentid could be read from test.py when
running the master.py stress test. This code in test.py worked:
raise NameError, "ERROR agent id :%s:" % (self.agentid)
And adding "test.agentid=0" after the
test = test( 1, 'console file '...
line in test.py allowed me to still use that script as a functional
testing script.

So opening/reading the inputfile based on self.agentid is an option.
 
Thanks for your help,
Geoff

1. Variables set in properties.py are inherited by your script
 
2. agentbase.py, the base class for your script, has a self.agentid
variable that is set when master.py calls setloginfo() in its
constructor. I haven't tried this, but you should be able to access this
variable.

	I would like each agent to get a unique data row from my input
file. If I made changes in Properties.py, it don't think this would be
possible.
	 
	Alternatively, each agent could open the input file and loop
though it using a unique data row for each test. If I added
	
userdata=open('S:\\d3a\\docs\\TestMakerStressTesting\\xstest\\userdata.t
sv', 'r')
	in the Properties.py file, would my test.py script be able to
see the userdata variable and get a new row for each test?

	I may be misunderstanding what you mean by "When I open the
input file as userdata in master.py". You should not need to change
master.py. Properties.py should load your test.py. Master.py knows to
look for properties.py.

		I'm using TestMaker 4.4. I created an xstest\test.py
file that reads input data from a file. My code works for running just
test.py and getting variable user data from userdata.tsv. Now I'm trying
to use xstest\master.py to create a stress test which will use a
different row of data from my input file for each test.
		I tried a couple approaches but neithor worked. When I
open the input file as userdata in master.py, test.py is unable to
access the userdata variable to do a readline().
		Any suggests on getting this to work? I found no example
scripts which get test data from input files. 

		Working code from test.py: 
		... 
		    def setUp( self ): 
		        ''' Add any needed set-up code here. ''' 
		        # Remove header line from input file 
		        self.log( 1, "Using the userdata values :%s:" %
( userdata.readline() ) ) 
		        
		        self.log( 1, "test: setUp" ) 
		        self.config() 
		        
		    def runTest( self ): 
		        ''' Run the test ''' 
		        self.log( 1, "test: runTest" ) 
		        
		        # Read data from input files 
		        self.log( 1, "Testing with:") 
		        
		        # Get 3 tab seperated data values, ignore any
extra values listed on that line 
		        userid, passwd, billid =
userdata.readline().rstrip().split( '\t' , 2 ) 
		        self.log( 1, "userid :%s:" % ( userid ) ) 
		        self.log( 1, "passwd :%s:" % ( passwd ) ) 
		        self.log( 1, "bill id :%s:" % ( billid ) ) 
		... 
		    The settings below were found in the Advanced
Options panel of the Recorder. 
		    ''' 
		    test = test( 1, 'console file ', 1,
'20.|300|301|302|303|304|307|401|403|408|41.', 'log.xml', 0, 1, 1, 1, 1,
'test', 1 )
		    # Run test using userdata input file 
		    try: 
	
userdata=open('S:\\d3a\\docs\\TestMakerStressTesting\\xstest\\userdata.t
sv', 'r') 
		      
		      test.setUp() 
		      test.runTest() 
		      test.tearDown() 
		    finally: 
		      userdata.close() 

		    test.closelog() 
		    print "done" 

		Thanks for any help,
