Description
Create a new tester that uses docker images/containers to run tests. This tester will behave in the following way:
- creating a new environment will create a new docker image (customized by a Dockerfile? Preset options to select?)
- when tests are run, a container will be created from the image and test files and settings files will be copied/mounted to the container
- tests will run in the container and the results will be reported back to the autotest server as normal
- once the test is done the container will be removed (probably the easiest way to do this is to start the container with the
--rmflag)
This should all be possible by creating a directory server/autotest_server/testers/docker/ and making all changes in there. In other words, the actual autotester should not require any changes, you're simply adding a new tester.
This project will proceed in two steps:
- write up a design document describing in detail how you will design this tester. No actual code changes are required at this step but you should include the following in your design document:
- how the autotester will interface with the docker images and containers
- what security measures will be put in place to prevent a user from breaking out of the docker container with escalated privileges
- how the workflow will be described to users (in documentation and in the UI on MarkUs)
- actually make the code changes and create the new tester
due dates: step 1 should be presented at the end of April 2022 at the latest. step 2 should be finished by the end of the summer 2022.
