## Running Icetea tests located under mbed-os
### Structure
Mbed OS has a folder called `TEST_APPS` that contains everything related to Icetea testing.
There are currently three folders:
- `device` - contains all the different test applications you can flash to your board.
- `icetea_plugins` - contains plugins that are being used by some of the testcases, needed for the test execution.
- `testcases` - contains Icetea testcases written in Python.
The testcases depend on test applications.
### Preparing your work environment
#### Prerequisites
You need Icetea and version 1.8.0 or higher of Mbed CLI installed.
#### Selecting the network interface to use
Depending on the device, there might be a default network interface type defined in `mbed-os/targets/targets.json`, which you can use to locate a default test-config file.
If the default network interface type is not defined or you want to use a different interface than the default, you need to provide a test-config file to the mbed test with `--test-config` option.
The test-config file contains the necessary information for the test application. There are some test-config files located under `mbed-os/tools/test_configs`.
Devices that have their network drivers residing inside `mbed-os` can use generic `test_configs`, such as `HeapBlockDeviceAndEthernetInterface.json` and `HeapBlockDeviceAndWifiInterface.json`. Otherwise, you need to use a device-specific test-config.
### Running the tests
Now that you have selected the interface, you can run the Icetea tests from the `mbed-os` root on your command-line by running the following command:
`mbed test -m <target> -t <toolchain> --icetea`
This command compiles the OS, compiles the test applications, creates a test suite and then starts running the tests.
If you only want to run some specific tests, you can use the `-n` option. You can choose multiple tests by separating them with a comma (`,`):
`mbed test -m <target> -t <toolchain> --icetea -n test1,test2`
#### Running the tests with a specific test-config
Some devices may offer multiple network interfaces to operate with. For example, `UBLOX_EVK_ODIN_W2` offers ethernet and Wi-Fi capabilities.
The tests can be run for either one of those using already existing test-config -files.
To run the tests with the Wi-Fi interface:
`mbed test -m UBLOX_EVK_ODIN_W2 -t <toolchain> --icetea --test-config tools/test_configs/HeapBlockDeviceAndWifiInterface.json`
To run the tests with the ethernet interface:
`mbed test -m UBLOX_EVK_ODIN_W2 -t <toolchain> --icetea --test-config tools/test_configs/HeapBlockDeviceAndEthernetInterface.json`
#### Providing Wi-Fi access point information
If you are using the Wi-Fi interface for running the tests, you need to also provide information about the used access point.
The information can be provided in the used test-config file.
Example of access point information:
```
"target_overrides": {
"*": {
"target.network-default-interface-type": "WIFI",
"nsapi.default-wifi-ssid": "\"ssid\"",
"nsapi.default-wifi-password": "\"password\"",
"nsapi.default-wifi-security": "WPA_WPA2"
}
}
```
### Test results
Icetea prints the results from the test run to the command-line, and the final result looks similar to this:
```
+--------------------------------+---------+-------------+-------------+-----------+----------+
| Testcase | Verdict | Fail Reason | Skip Reason | platforms | duration |
+--------------------------------+---------+-------------+-------------+-----------+----------+
| test_cmdline | pass | | | K64F | 8.555 |
| UDPSOCKET_BIND_PORT | pass | | | K64F | 19.614 |
| TCPSOCKET_BIND_PORT | pass | | | K64F | 15.852 |
| TCPSERVER_ACCEPT | pass | | | K64F | 41.629 |
| TCPSOCKET_ECHOTEST_BURST_SHORT | pass | | | K64F | 19.926 |
+--------------------------------+---------+-------------+-------------+-----------+----------+
+---------------+----------------+
| Summary | |
+---------------+----------------+
| Final Verdict | PASS |
| count | 5 |
| passrate | 100.00 % |
| pass | 5 |
| Duration | 0:01:45.576000 |
+---------------+----------------+
```
You can also find the results from the tests in the `mbed-os/log` folder.
You probably want to add the log folder to your `.mbedignore` file to prevent issues with build commands becoming too long over the time.
