INSTALLATION
So far the osmo-gsm-tester directory is manually placed in /usr/local/src
DEPENDENCIES
Packages required to run the osmo-gsm-tester:
dbus
python3
python3-dbus
python3-pip
python3-mako
tcpdump
smpplib (pip install git+git://github.com/podshumok/python-smpplib.git)
ofono
To build ofono:
libglib2.0-dev
libdbus-1-dev
libudev-dev
mobile-broadband-provider-info
INSTALLATION
Place a copy of the osmo-gsm-tester repository in /usr/local/src/
cp install/osmo-gsm-tester-limits.conf /etc/security/limits.d/
cp install/*.service /lib/systemd/system/
cp install/org.ofono.conf /etc/dbus-1/system.d/
systemctl daemon-reload
To run:
systemctl enable ofono
systemctl start ofono
systemctl status ofono
systemctl enable osmo-gsm-tester
systemctl start osmo-gsm-tester
systemctl status osmo-gsm-tester
To stop:
systemctl stop osmo-gsm-tester
After ofonod has been started and modems have been connected to the system,
you can run the 'list-modems' script located in /usr/local/src/ofono/test to get
a list of the modems that have been detected by ofono.
CONFIGURATION
Host System configuration
Create the /var/tmp/osmo-gsm-tester directory. It will be used to accept new test jobs.
Test resources (NITB, BTS and modems) are currently configured in the test_manager.py.
For every nitb resource that can be allocated, one alias IP address needs
to be set up in /etc/network/interfaces on the interface that is connected to the BTSes.
By add the following lines for each nitb instance that can be allocated (while making
sure each interface alias and IP is unique)
auto eth1:0
allow-hotplug eth1:0
iface eth1:0 inet static
address 10.42.42.2
netmask 255.255.255.0
Also make sure, the user executing the tester is allowed to run tcpdump. If
the user is not root, we have used the folloing line to get proper permissions:
groupadd pcap
addgroup <your-user-name> pcap
setcap cap_net_raw,cap_net_admin=eip /usr/sbin/tcpdump
chgroup pcap /usr/sbin/tcpdump
chmod 0750 /usr/sbin/tcpdump
The tester main unit must be able to ssh without password to the sysmobts (and
possibly other) hardware: place the main unit's public SSH key on the sysmoBTS.
Log in via SSH at least once to accept the BTS' host key.
LAUNCHING A TEST RUN
osmo-gsm-tester watches /var/tmp/osmo-gsm-tester for instructions to launch
test runs. A test run is triggered by a subdirectory containing binaries and a
checksums file, typically created by jenkins using the scripts in contrib/.
