Setup DK test environment

Describes how to configure a generic DK test environment. 

Startup

1. ssh to the test system server:

   > ssh test@kb-prod-udv-001.kb.dk
   

2. Set the global variables for your testcase:

   > export TESTX=TEST??; export PORT=807?; export MAILRECEIVERS=foo@bar.dk; export TIMESTAMP=????
   

 Start the test (general test, see specific test case for actual startup command)

> all_test_db.sh

Harvest DB

The harvest database for the standard release tests is based on a postgresql dump. This can be found in test@kb-prod-udv-001:bin/harvestdb.release_test.pgsql . This directory is a CVS working copy, so any alterations to the database can be committed directly from there. A new version of the database dump can be generated from any existing NAS instance using pg_dump: pg_dump -U test -d test<foobar>_harvestdb -f harvestdb.release_test.pgsql .

Test port allocation

Viewerproxy Setup

To use a viewerproxy in the test system

1. Setup port forwarding from your user port on kb-prod-udv-001 to the same port on kb-test-acs-001 (the Viewerproxy application) as follows: 

   ssh -g -N -L${PORT}:kb-test-acs-001.kb.dk:${PORT} kb-test-acs-001.kb.dk

2. Setup a browser to use this proxy. This is easiest in Firefox. For example, you can define a Firefox profile which always connects to your favoured proxy. Start firefox with 

   firefox --no-remote -P

   
   then create a new profile. In Edit->Preferences->Advanced->Settings choose "Manual proxy configuration". Set the proxy to kb-prod-udv-001.kb.dk and the port to your usual port. Check "Use this proxy server for all protocols". Then add the following to "No Proxy for:" 

   localhost, 127.0.0.1,kb-test-adm-001.kb.dk,kb-prod-udv-001.kb.dk,kb-prod-udv-001

You can now use this Firefox profile both to browse the admin GUI for your NAS installation and for the viewerproxy.
