## Introduction
XDevice, a core module of the OpenHarmony test framework, provides services on which test case execution depends.
XDevice consists of the following sub-modules:
- **command**: enables command-based interactions between users and the test platform. It parses and processes user commands.
- **config**: sets test framework configurations and provides different configuration options for the serial port connection and USB connection modes.
- **driver**: functions as a test case executor, which defines main test steps, such as test case distribution, execution, and result collection.
- **report**: parses test results and generates test reports.
- **scheduler**: schedules various test case executors in the test framework.
- **environment**: configures the test framework environment, enabling device discovery and device management.
- **testkit**: provides test tools to implement JSON parsing, network file mounting, etc.
- **resource**: provides the device connection configuration file and report template definitions.

## Constraints
The environment requirements for using this module are as follows:
- Python version: 3.7.5 or later
- pySerial version: 3.3 or later
- Paramiko version: 2.7.1 or later
- RSA version: 4.0 or later
## Usage
- **Installing XDevice**
1. Go to the installation directory of XDevice.
2. Open the console window and run the following command:
```
python setup.py install
```
- **Installing the extension**
1. Go to the installation directory of the XDevice extension.
2. Open the console and run the following command:
```
python setup.py install
```
- **Modifying the user\_config.xml file**
Configure information about your environment in the **user\_config.xml** file.
**1. Configure the environment.**
- For devices that support hdc connection, refer to the following note to configure the environment.
>![](figures/icon-note.gif) **NOTE:**
>**ip/port**: IP address and port of a remote device. By default, the parameter is left blank, indicating that the local device \(IP address: 127.0.0.1; port: the one used for hdc startup\) is used as the test device.
>**sn**: SN of the test devices specified for command execution. If this parameter is set to **SN1**, only device SN1 can execute the subsequent **run** commands. In this case, other devices are set as **Ignored** and not involved in the command execution. You can run the **list devices** command and check the value of **Allocation** to view the **sn** values. You can set multiple SNs and separate each two of them with a semicolon \(;\).
- For devices that support serial port connection, refer to the following note to configure the environment.
>![](figures/icon-note.gif) **NOTE:**
>**type**: device connection mode. The **com** mode indicates that the device is connected through the serial port.
>**label**: device type, for example, **wifiiot**
>**serial**: serial port
>- **serial/com**: serial port for local connection, for example, **COM20**
>- **serial/type**: serial port type. The value can be **cmd** \(serial port for test case execution\) or **deploy** \(serial port for system upgrade\).
> For the open-source project, the **cmd** and **deploy** serial ports are the same, and their **com** values are the same too.
> **serial/baud\_rate, data\_bits, stop\_bits** and **timeout**: serial port parameters. You can use the default values.
**2. Set the test case directory.**
**dir**: test case directory
**3. Mount the NFS.**
>![](figures/icon-note.gif) **NOTE:**
>**server**: NFS mounting configuration. Set the value to **NfsServer**.
>**server/ip**: IP address of the mounting environment
>**server/port**: port number of the mounting environment
>**server/username**: user name for logging in to the server
>**server/password**: password for logging in to the server
>**server/dir**: external mount path
>**server/remote**: whether the NFS server and the XDevice executor are deployed on different devices. If yes, set this parameter to **true**. Otherwise, set it to **false**.
- **Specify the task type.**
- **Start the test framework.**
- **Execute test commands.**
Test framework commands can be classified into three groups: **help**, **list**, and **run**. Among them, **run** commands are most commonly used in the instruction sequence.
**help**
Queries help information about test framework commands.
```
help:
use help to get information.
usage:
run: Display a list of supported run command.
list: Display a list of supported device and task record.
Examples:
help run
help list
```
>![](figures/icon-note.gif) **NOTE:**
>**help run**: displays the description of **run** commands.
>**help list**: displays the description of **list** commands.
**list**
Displays device information and related task information.
```
list:
This command is used to display device list and task record.
usage:
list
list history
list
Introduction:
list: display device list
list history: display history record of a serial of tasks
list : display history record about task what contains specific id
Examples:
list
list history
list 6e****90
```
>![](figures/icon-note.gif) **NOTE:**
>**list**: displays device information.
>**list history**: displays historical task information.
>**list **: displays historical information about tasks with specified IDs.
**run**
Executes test tasks.
```
run:
This command is used to execute the selected testcases.
It includes a series of processes such as use case compilation, execution, and result collection.
usage: run [-l TESTLIST [TESTLIST ...] | -tf TESTFILE
[TESTFILE ...]] [-tc TESTCASE] [-c CONFIG] [-sn DEVICE_SN]
[-rp REPORT_PATH [REPORT_PATH ...]]
[-respath RESOURCE_PATH [RESOURCE_PATH ...]]
[-tcpath TESTCASES_PATH [TESTCASES_PATH ...]]
[-ta TESTARGS [TESTARGS ...]] [-pt]
[-env TEST_ENVIRONMENT [TEST_ENVIRONMENT ...]]
[-e EXECTYPE] [-t [TESTTYPE [TESTTYPE ...]]]
[-td TESTDRIVER] [-tl TESTLEVEL] [-bv BUILD_VARIANT]
[-cov COVERAGE] [--retry RETRY] [--session SESSION]
[--dryrun] [--reboot-per-module] [--check-device]
[--repeat REPEAT]
action task
Specify tests to run.
positional arguments:
action Specify action
task Specify task name,such as "ssts", "acts", "hits"
```
>![](figures/icon-note.gif) **NOTE:**
>The structure of a basic **run** command is as follows:
>```
>run [task name] -l module1;moudle2
>```
>**task name**: task type. This parameter is optional. Generally, the value is **ssts**, **acts**, or **hits**.
>**-l**: test cases to execute. Use semicolons \(;\) to separate each two test cases.
>**module**: module to test. Generally, there is a **.json** file of the module in the **testcases** directory.
>In addition, other parameters can be attached to this command as constraints. Common parameters are as follows:
>**-sn**: specifies the devices for test case execution. If this parameter is set to **SN1**, only device SN1 executes the test cases.
>**-c**: specifies a new **user\_config.xml** file.
>**-rp**: indicates the path where the report is generated. The default directory is **xxx/xdevice/reports**. Priority of a specified directory is higher than that of the default one.
>**-tcpath**: indicates the environment directory, which is **xxx/xdevice/testcases** by default. Priority of a specified directory is higher than that of the default one.
>**-respath**: indicates the test suite directory, which is **xxx/xdevice/resource** by default. Priority of a specified directory is higher than that of the default one.
>**--reboot-per-module**: restarts the device before test case execution.
- **View the execution result.**
After executing the **run** commands, the test framework displays the corresponding logs on the console, and generates the execution report in the directory specified by the **-rp** parameter. If the parameter is not set, the report will be generated in the default directory.
