Cassandra Distributed Tests (DTests)

Cassandra Distributed Tests (or better known as "DTests") are a set of Python-based tests for Apache Cassandra clusters. DTests aim to test functionality that requires multiple Cassandra instances. Functionality that of code that can be tested in isolation should ideally be a unit test (which can be found in the actual Cassandra repository).

Setup and Prerequisites

Some environmental setup is required before you can start running DTests.

Native Dependencies

DTests requires the following native dependencies:

  • Python 3
  • PIP for Python 3
  • libev
  • git
  • JDK 8 (Java)

Linux

  1. apt-get install git-core python3 python3-pip python3-dev libev4 libev-dev
  2. (Optional - solves warning: "jemalloc shared library could not be preloaded to speed up memory allocations"): apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends libjemalloc1

Mac

On Mac, the easiest path is to install the latest Xcode and Command Line Utilities to bootstrap your development environment and then use Homebrew

  1. (Optional) Make sure brew is in a good state on your system brew doctor
  2. brew install python3 libev

Python Dependencies

There are multiple external Python dependencies required to run DTests. The current Python dependency list is maintained in a file named requirements.txt in the root of the cassandra-dtest repository.

The easiest way to install these dependencies is with pip and virtualenv.

Note: While virtualenv isn't strictly required, using virtualenv is almost always the quickest path to success as it provides common base setup across various configurations.

  1. Install virtualenv: pip install virtualenv
  2. Create a new virtualenv: virtualenv --python=python3 --no-site-packages ~/dtest
  3. Switch/Activate the new virtualenv: source ~/dtest/bin/activate
  4. Install remaining DTest Python dependencies: pip install -r /path/to/cassandra-dtest/requirements.txt

Usage

The tests are executed by the pytest framework which includes a helpful Usage and Invocations document which is a great place to start for basic invocation options when using pytest.

At minimum,

The only thing the framework needs to know is the location of the (compiled (hint: ant clean jar)) sources for Cassandra. There are two options:

Use existing sources:

pytest --cassandra-dir=~/path/to/cassandra

Use ccm ability to download/compile released sources from archives.apache.org:

pytest --cassandra-version=1.0.0

To run a specific test file, class or individual test, you only have to pass its path as an argument:

pytest --cassandra-dir=~/path/to/cassandra pending_range_test.py
pytest --cassandra-dir=~/path/to/cassandra pending_range_test.py::TestPendingRangeMovements
pytest --cassandra-dir=~/path/to/cassandra pending_range_test.py::TestPendingRangeMovements::test_pending_range

When adding a new test or modifying an existing one, it's always a good idea to run it several times to make sure it is stable. This can be easily done with the --count option. For example, to run a test class 10 times:

pytest --count=10 --cassandra-dir=~/path/to/cassandra pending_range_test.py

Existing tests are probably the best place to start to look at how to write tests.

Each test spawns a new fresh cluster and tears it down after the test. If a test fails, the logs for the node are saved in a logs/<timestamp> directory for analysis (it's not perfect but has been good enough so far, I'm open to better suggestions).

In case you want to run tests using your own CCM branch, please, refer to the comments in requirements.txt for details how to do that.

Writing Tests

If you'd like to know what to expect during a code review, please see the included CONTRIBUTING file.

Debugging Tests

Some general tips for debugging dtest/pytest tests

pytest.set_trace()

If there is an unexpected value being asserted on and you'd like to inspect the state of all the tests variables just before a paricular assert, add pytest.set_trace() right before the problematic code. The next time you execute the test, when that line of code is reached pytest will drop you into an interactive python debugger (pdb). From there you can use standard python options to inspect various methods and variables for debugging.

Hung tests/hung pytest framework

Debugging hung tests can be very difficult but thanks to improvements in Python 3 it's now pretty painless to get a python thread dump of all the threads currently running in the pytest process.

import faulthandler
faulthandler.enable()

Adding the above code will install a signal handler into your process. When the process recieves a SIGABRT signal, python will dump python thread dumps for all running threads in the process. DTests installs this by default with the install_debugging_signal_handler fixture.

The following is an example of what you might see if you send a SIGABRT signal to the pytest process while in a hung state during the test teardown phase after the successful completion of the actual dtest.

(env) cassandra-dtest vcooluser$ kill -SIGABRT 24142

Debugging Issues with Fixtures and Test Setup/Teardown

pytest can appear to be doing "magic" more often than not. One place it may be hard to follow what actual code will get executed by normal code inspection alone is determining which fixtures will run for a given test and in what order. pytest provides a --setup-plan command line argument. When pytest is invoked with this argument it will print a execution plan including all fixtures and tests that actually running the test will invoke. The below is an example for the current execution plan pytest generates for dtest auth_test.py::TestAuthRoles::test_create_drop_role

Instances Failing to Start (Unclean Test Teardown)

Getting into a state (especially while writing new tests or debugging problamatic ones) where pytest/dtest fails to fully tear-down all local C* instancse that were started. You can use this handy one liner to kill all C* instances in one go:

ps aux | grep -ie CassandraDaemon | grep java | awk '{print $2}' | xargs kill
