Testing Trident

Code Checks​

To ensure code quality and consistency, we use Rust's clippy linting tool. You can run it with the following command:

make check

Unit Testing​

To run Trident's unit tests, you can use the following command:

cargo test --all

or

make test

Functional Testing​

NOTICE

Running these tests depends on internal resources that are not publicly available yet.

Many operations in Trident cannot be tested with unit tests alone given the nature of the operations (e.g., manipulating disks, RAID arrays, mounts, filesystems, etc.). For this reason, we have a suite of functional tests that can be run in a controlled virtual environment. These tests are run as part of our CI/CD pipelines.

The tests themselves are located in the Rust code under cfg attributes:

#[cfg(feature = "functional-tests")]
mod functional_tests {
    // ...
}

You can read more about how functional tests work in Functional Tests.
