Hi,
Please welcome me to the AutoTest mailing group :). We found it's a
very nice and useful framework and would like to use this framework
for our future automation framework development. I have already run
some of the tests on linux and found it's very useful.
Welcome!
But, I have certain queries before moving forward with the AutoTest.
My question is*/whether this framework would be useful if I would run
this on Windows platform ?/* I want to run it on windows host.
Recently I found some forum saying that we could run it by installing
Cygwin on Windows.Is it true ? If it's then it would be great/*if you
could provide me few steps/pointers on how to use AutoTest on Windows*/.
Sorry but I don't have information based on experience to share with you
on this.
It does make some sense to assume that autotest will run as expected on
cygwin environment, caveats included though. You should probably start
trying out autotest client tests (as opposed to a complete autotest
scheduler and server mode tests). You will probably discover that
autotest expects very little (besides python) to be installed on a
client system, but it does assume this client system is a Linux(-like)
system.
Please share with us your mileage (and maybe patches!) on this.
Cheers,
CR.
Regards,
Samir

It's great stuff (!) and Cleber will be able to use most for the demo
session over the code overview (Cleber, check Lucas slides from
the forum).
IMHO the client install data is too detailed and can be broken into a
quick page w/ additional links to more detailed setup:
- Most of our uses knows how to get git.
You can take all of the git related into a separate page.
- Same goes for other dependencies, eventually you can say
yum install git qemu-kvm SDL ...
That should be enough
- The kvm_stat can be detected automatically and if there is no
kvm_stat in the path you can automatically ignore it.
I believe we project is pretty good documented, but we like to go the
extra mile for our lazy users :)
