Documentation

Documentation on the usage of the tool and tutorials can be found on https://documentation.ubuntu.com/rockcraft/en/stable/

Testing

In addition to unit tests in tests/unit, which can be run with make test-units, a number of integrated tests in tests/spread can be run with Spread. See the general notes and take note of these rockcraft-specific instructions:

• Initialize/update git submodules to fetch Spread-related helper scripts:

  $ git submodule init
  $ git submodule update
  

• Spread needs a rockcraft snap in order to run. Create one with snapcraft via:

  $ snapcraft --use-lxd
  $ cp <generated snap> tests/
  

• Run Spread:

  $ spread tests/spread
  # Or run a specific test
  $ spread tests/spread/tutorials/basic
  # Use "-v" for verbose, and "-debug" to get a shell if the test fails
  $ spread -v -debug tests/spread/tutorials/basic
