`-serial mon:stdio` passes through all kinds of key combinations, `-serial stdio` doesn't. This probably isn't something that we want while running tests or CI, so switch to the non-passing variant. aarch64 actually failed to run due to this, since it already had `-serial stdio` in its arguments, causing a conflict. This is why that entry is now gone entirely.

Running SerenityOS Tests
There are two classes of tests built during a SerenityOS build: host tests and target tests. Host tests run on the build machine, and use Lagom to build SerenityOS userspace libraries for the host platform. Target tests run on the SerenityOS machine, either emulated or bare metal.
Running Host Tests
There are two ways to build host tests: from a full build, or from a Lagom-only build. The only difference is the CMake command used to initialize the build directory.
For a full build, pass -DBUILD_LAGOM=ON
to the CMake command.
cmake -GNinja -S Meta/CMake/Superbuild -B Build/superbuild-x86_64 -DBUILD_LAGOM=ON
For a Lagom-only build, pass the Lagom directory to CMake. The BUILD_LAGOM
CMake option is still required.
cmake -GNinja -S Meta/Lagom -B Build/lagom -DBUILD_LAGOM=ON
In both cases, the tests can be run via ninja after doing a build. Note that test-js
requires the SERENITY_SOURCE_DIR
environment variable to be set
to the root of the serenity source tree when running on a non-SerenityOS host.
# /path/to/serenity repository
export SERENITY_SOURCE_DIR=${PWD}
cd Build/lagom
ninja
ninja test
To see the stdout/stderr output of failing tests, the recommended way is to set the environment variable CTEST_OUTPUT_ON_FAILURE
to 1.
CTEST_OUTPUT_ON_FAILURE=1 ninja test
# or, using ctest directly...
ctest --output-on-failure
Running with Sanitizers
CI runs host tests with Address Sanitizer and Undefined Sanitizer instrumentation enabled. These tools catch many classes of common C++ errors, including memory leaks, out of bounds access to stack and heap allocations, and signed integer overflow. For more info on the sanitizers, check out the Address Sanitizer wiki page, or the Undefined Sanitizer documentation from clang.
Note that a sanitizer build will take significantly longer than a non-sanitizer build, and will mess with caches in tools such as ccache
.
The sanitizers can be enabled with the -DENABLE_FOO_SANITIZER
set of flags. For the Serenity target, only the Undefined Sanitizers is supported.
cmake -GNinja -S Meta/Lagom -B Build/lagom -DBUILD_LAGOM=ON -DENABLE_ADDRESS_SANITIZER=ON -DENABLE_UNDEFINED_SANITIZER=ON
cd Build/lagom
ninja
CTEST_OUTPUT_ON_FAILURE=1 SERENITY_SOURCE_DIR=${PWD}/../.. ninja test
To ensure that Undefined Sanitizer errors fail the test, the halt_on_error
flag should be set to 1 in the environment variable UBSAN_OPTIONS
.
UBSAN_OPTIONS=halt_on_error=1 CTEST_OUTPUT_ON_FAILURE=1 SERENITY_SOURCE_DIR=${PWD}/.. ninja test
Running Target Tests
Tests built for the SerenityOS target get installed either into /usr/Tests
or /bin
. /usr/Tests
is preferred, but
some system tests are installed into /bin
for historical reasons.
The easiest way to run all of the known tests in the system is to use the run-tests-and-shutdown.sh
script that gets
installed into /home/anon/Tests
. When running in CI, the environment variable $DO_SHUTDOWN_AFTER_TESTS
is set, which
will run shutdown -n
after running all the tests.
For completeness, a basic on-target test run will need the SerenityOS image built and run via QEMU.
cmake -GNinja -S Meta/CMake/Superbuild -B Build/superbuild-x86_64
cmake --build Build/superbuild-x86_64
cd Build/x86_64
ninja install && ninja qemu-image && ninja run
In the initial terminal, one can easily run the test runner script:
courage ~ $ ./Tests/run-tests-and-shutdown.sh
=== Running Tests on SerenityOS ===
...
CI runs the tests in self-test mode, using the 'ci' run options and the TestRunner entry in /etc/SystemServer.ini to run tests automatically on startup.
The system server entry looks as below:
[TestRunner@ttyS0]
Executable=/home/anon/Tests/run-tests-and-shutdown.sh
StdIO=/dev/ttyS0
Environment=DO_SHUTDOWN_AFTER_TESTS=1 TERM=xterm PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin
User=anon
WorkingDirectory=/home/anon
SystemModes=self-test
/dev/ttyS0
is used as stdio because that serial port is connected when qemu is run with -display none
and
-serial stdio
, and output to it will show up in the stdout of the qemu window. Separately, the CI run script redirects
the serial debug output to ./debug.log
so that both stdout of the tests and the dbgln from the kernel/tests can be
captured.
To run with CI's TestRunner system server entry, SerenityOS needs booted in self-test mode. Running the following shell
lines will boot SerenityOS in self-test mode, run tests, and exit. Note that CI also sets panic=shutdown
to terminate qemu;
the default value halt
keeps qemu around, which allows you to inspect the state.
export SERENITY_RUN=ci
export SERENITY_KERNEL_CMDLINE="graphics_subsystem_mode=off system_mode=self-test"
ninja run
