Genie.Telemetry is a plugin system for collecting statistics and telemetry information from devices under test, leveraging Genie libraries and development methodology.
Multiple plugins have been already developed,
- crashdumps
- tracebackcheck
- alignmentcheck
- cpucheck
Genie is both a library framework and a test harness that facilitates rapid development, encourage re-usable and simplify writing test automation. Genie bundled with the modular architecture of pyATS framework accelerates and simplifies test automation leveraging all the perks of the Python programming language in an object-orienting fashion.
pyATS is an end-to-end testing ecosystem, specializing in data-driven and reusable testing, and engineered to be suitable for Agile, rapid development iterations. Extensible by design, pyATS enables developers to start with small, simple and linear test cases, and scale towards large, complex and asynchronous test suites.
Genie was initially developed internally in Cisco, and is now available to the general public starting early 2018 through Cisco DevNet.
This is an optional package for Genie. Install it alongside your environment where pyATS/Genie is isntalled.
bash$ pip install genie.telemetryDetailed installation guide can be found on our website.
To develop this package, assuming you have Genie already installed in your environment, follow the commands below:
# remove the packages
bash$ pip uninstall -y genie.telemetry
# clone this repo
bash$ git clone https://github.com/CiscoTestAutomation/genietelemetry.git
# put all packages in dev mode
bash$ cd genietelemetry
bash$ make developNow you should be able to develop the files and see it reflected in your runs.
