Network interface test plan

Target API

The goal of this plan is to test NetworkInterface.h

Tools needed

Test environment

Greentea.

Test case priorities

Please refer to the following table for priorities of test cases. Priorities are labeled as MUST and SHOULD. MUST means this is a requirement and therefore mandatory to pass the test. SHOULD means it is recommended to pass the test if the driver implements the feature in question.

Test case Priority
1 NETWORKINTERFACE_CONN_DISC_REPEAT MUST
2 NETWORKINTERFACE_STATUS MUST
3 NETWORKINTERFACE_STATUS_NONBLOCK MUST
4 NETWORKINTERFACE_STATUS_GET MUST

Building test binaries

For testing the board and driver, test against the Mbed OS master branch to get the most recent, up-to-date test cases and drivers.

To create a build environment:

mbed new network_interface_test
cd network_interface_test
cd mbed-os
git checkout master
cd ..

Now build test binaries:

mbed test --compile -t <toolchain> -m <target> -n mbed-os-tests-network-interface

Running tests

When device is connected to network, or if a wireless device is near the access point:

mbed test -n mbed-os-tests-network-interface

Test cases for NetworkInterface class

NETWORKINTERFACE_CONN_DISC_REPEAT

Description:

Test NetworkInterface::connect() and NetworkInterface::disconnect()

Precondition:

Network interface is initialized.

Test steps:

  1. Connect interface.
  2. Disconnect interface.
  3. Repeat connect and disconnect steps 1 to 2 four times.

Expected result:

Connect() and disconnect() calls return NSAPI_ERROR_OK.

NETWORKINTERFACE_STATUS

Description:

Test NetworkInterface::attach() and status indications.

Preconditions:

  1. Network interface is initialized.
  2. Status callback is attached to the network interface.
  3. Network interface is on blocking mode.

Test steps:

  1. Connect interface.
  2. Check that interface indicates status NSAPI_STATUS_CONNECTING.
  3. Optional: Check that interface indicates status NSAPI_STATUS_LOCAL_UP (whether this is indicated depends on network interface type).
  4. Check that interface indicates status NSAPI_STATUS_GLOBAL_UP.
  5. Disconnect interface.
  6. Check that interface indicates status NSAPI_STATUS_DISCONNECTED.
  7. Repeat connect and disconnect steps 1 to 6 four times.

Expected result:

Callback statuses are correct. Connect() and disconnect() calls return NSAPI_ERROR_OK. Note: The network interface may indicate the same status several times in a row, depending on the network interface type. This will not fail the test.

NETWORKINTERFACE_STATUS_NONBLOCK

Description:

Test NetworkInterface::attach() and status indications on nonblocking mode.

Preconditions:

  1. Network interface is initialized.
  2. Status callback is attached to the network interface.
  3. Network interface is on nonblocking mode.

Test steps:

  1. Connect interface.
  2. Check that interface indicates status NSAPI_STATUS_CONNECTING.
  3. Optional: Check that interface indicates status NSAPI_STATUS_LOCAL_UP (whether this is indicated depends on network interface type).
  4. Check that interface indicates status NSAPI_STATUS_GLOBAL_UP.
  5. Disconnect interface.
  6. Check that interface indicates status NSAPI_STATUS_DISCONNECTED.
  7. Repeat connect and disconnect steps 1 to 6 four times.

Expected result:

Callback statuses are correct. Connect() and disconnect() calls return NSAPI_ERROR_OK. Note: The network interface may indicate the same status several times in a row, depending on the network interface type. This will not fail the test.

NETWORKINTERFACE_STATUS_GET

Description:

Test NetworkInterface::get_connection_status().

Preconditions:

  1. Network interface is initialized.
  2. Network interface is on blocking mode.

Test steps:

  1. Check that get_connection_status() returns status NSAPI_STATUS_DISCONNECTED.
  2. Connect interface.
  3. Poll the get_connection_status() until it returns status NSAPI_STATUS_GLOBAL_UP.
  4. Disconnect interface.
  5. Check that get_connection_status() returns status NSAPI_STATUS_DISCONNECTED.
  6. Repeat connect and disconnect steps 2 to 5 four times.

Expected result:

Connect() and disconnect() calls return NSAPI_ERROR_OK. The right status is returned by get_connection_status().
