Extend test suite to cover also automatic octal/hex converstions which
haven't been implemented in past.

Signed-off-by: Michal Simek <michal.simek@xilinx.com>

Depends on https://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2019-September/383309.html

There are of course other tests which we can run but not sure if make sense
to have there all combinations. The most interesting are mixed tests which
are failing before patch above is applied.
Definitely please let me know if you want to add any other test.

I worry that these tests might be very slow since it requires a lot of
interaction with U-Boot over a pipe. Is it possible to put them in C
code instead, e.g. cmd_ut?

I have of course running it on my HW and it is quite fast. It is just 16
more simple tests. And if this breaks gitlab/travis CI loops then we
have bigger problem.
I see that CONFIG_UNIT_TEST is enabled only for sandbox. Do it make
sense to enable it also for others to have better coverage?

Thanks,
Michal

I mean running these tests on sandbox. The interactions with the
sandbox command line are quite slow I think.

Hopefully the sandbox tests cover it. We are not necessarily trying to
find compiler bugs, just make sure that code has test coverage.

I am not sharing this concern.

Before:
[u-boot]$ time ./test/py/test.py --bd sandbox -s -k hush >/dev/null

real	0m2,403s
user	0m1,263s
sys	0m0,299s

After
[u-boot]$ time ./test/py/test.py --bd sandbox -s -k hush >/dev/null

real	0m2,864s
user	0m1,563s
sys	0m0,305s

And if 0.4s on testing will cause issues somewhere else we have
different kind of problem.

Thanks,
Michal

+Stephen Warren

I originally mentioned this concern to Stephen we the test setup was
created. At present even 'make qcheck' takes over a minute. Adding
half a second to this every time we add a new test is not going to
lead to a good place.

Stephen made some improvements to speed things up, and suggested that
the problem would not bear out. The alternative was presumably to
build U-Boot into a Python module to avoid the comms overhead. But we
didn't go that path.

So I think we should only use Python when the tests cannot be written in C.

Simon

I don't really see any concern with the addition of a couple extra 
seconds of test. Clearly I'd rather see the test written in Python and 
using external interfaces (i.e. the shell) where they test features 
accessible through those interfaces, since that allows them to be 
validated on all platforms, rather than only in sandbox. I feel that 
sandbox is good for unit tests and providing host-based smoke tests, but 
nothing beats actually being able to test real platforms.

But cmd_ut.c works fine on non-sandbox platforms. I'm asking that we
do the same approach here.

We can use run_command() and run_command_list()

Agreed, but I think that is a separate issue.

In that case, I'd agree it's fine to use that approach since presumably 
those functions run through the standard shell parsing code. But I still 
wouldn't want to prevent anyone from invoking stuff from test/py myself, 
even if you might:-)

Ok. Would be good to get any outcome of this discussion regarding this
one patch. Right now this is what I have and I have tested it. The patch
which adds this functionality is already in the tree.

I expect that the same logic can be applied to all tests in this file
that's why I think that would be the best to add TODO to this file to
let everybody know what should happen with these tests and how it should
be converted.

Thanks,

Yes please add a TODO, but I don't want to add more tests here for
someone to convert!

I just timed it - 2.5 seconds to run the hush tests, 22 seconds to run
the whole test suite - so these tests take 10% of the time! As you
mention they run instantly when done in C.

I run these tests a lot - the total time for 'make qcheck' is about
75s for me and I run it a lot, so am actively looking to reduce this
down.

We may need to rethink the pytest stuff a bit, perhaps building U-Boot
as a Python library? But in any case, please add a C test. It is
really easy to do, e.g. like cmd_ut.c

Simon
