Systems Testing With VTS

The Vendor Test Suite (VTS) automates HAL and OS kernel testing. To use VTS to test an Android native system implementation, set up a testing environment then test a patch using a VTS plan.

Establishing a test environment

To set up a testing environment:

1. Install Python development kit:

   sudo apt-get install python-dev
   

2. Install Protocol Buffer tools (for Python):

   sudo apt-get install python-protobuf
   sudo apt-get install protobuf-compiler
   

3. Install Python virtual environment-related tools:

   sudo apt-get install python-virtualenv
   sudo apt-get install python-pip
   

Testing a patch

To test a patch:

1. Build a VTS host-side package:

   . build/envsetup.sh
   lunch aosp_arm64-userdebug
   make vts -j
   

2. Run the default VTS tests:

   vts-tradefed
   tf> run vts     // where vts is the test plan name
   

VTS plans

Available VTS test plans include:

To view a list of all plans, refer to /test/vts/tools/vts-tradefed/res/config.md.
