#106: create disk images for tests requiring pre-existing disk data --------------------+------------------------------------------------------- Reporter: wwoods | Owner: Type: task | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Automate installation test plan Component: tests | Version: 1.0 Keywords: | --------------------+------------------------------------------------------- Some installation tests require existing disks with some data - either an old version of Fedora to upgrade, or certain disk partitions to be reused/replaced. For example:
* https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_Anaconda_Upgrade_New_Bootloader * https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_Preupgrade * https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/TestCases/PartitioningPreExistingLvm2Lvm2 etc.
We should either have a library of methods for creating these disks, or keep stock disk images for this purpose.

Note that code to generate disk images with specified contents will be required for some test cases, like:
* https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/TestCases/InstallSourceHardDrive * https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/TestCases/KickstartKsHdDevicePathKsCfg

Note. Liam has code in his private git branch to allow for installing from a kickstart located on disk (aka [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/TestCases/KickstartKsHdDevicePathKsCfg ks=hd:]).

we have a method create_kickstart_disk() to create disk images at: http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=autoqa.git;a=blob;f=tests/anaconda/dvd_in...
Next step we should move this method to lib
