Running Test Across Multiple Executors

The executor property can support regular expression to search for compatible executors, this can be used if you want to run a test across multiple executors. In buildtest, we use re.fullmatch with the input pattern defined by executor property against a list of available executors defined in configuration file. You can retrieve a list of executors by running buildtest config executors list.

In example below we will run this test on generic.local.bash and generic.local.sh executor based on the regular expression.

buildspecs:
  multiple_executors:
    type: script
    executor: 'generic.local.(bash|sh)'
    description: run test with executor generic.local.bash and generic.local.sh executor
    tags: [tutorials]
    run: date

If we build this test, notice that there are two tests, one for each executor.

Multiple Executors

Note

This feature is in active development

Note

This feature is compatible with type: script and type: spack.

The executors property can be used to define executor specific configuration for each test, currently this field can be used with vars, env , scheduler directives: sbatch, bsub, pbs, cobalt and cray burst buffer/data warp. The executors field is a JSON object that expects name of executor followed by property set per executor. In this next example, we define variables X, Y and environment SHELL based on executors generic.local.sh and generic.local.bash.

buildspecs:
  executors_vars_env_declaration:
    type: script
    executor: 'generic.local.(bash|sh)'
    description: Declaring env and vars by executors section
    tags: [tutorials]
    run: |
      echo "X:" $X
      echo "Y:" $Y
      echo $SHELL
    executors:
      generic.local.bash:
        vars:
          X: 1
          Y: 3
        env:
          SHELL: bash
      generic.local.sh:
        vars:
          X: 2
          Y: 4
        env:
          SHELL: sh

Let’s build this test.

Adding 2 test results to report file: /tmp/tmp3y1v3yxa/var/report.json
Writing Logfile to /tmp/tmp3y1v3yxa/var/logs/buildtest_n74vshwd.log

Now let’s look at the generated content of the test as follows. We will see that buildtest will set X=1, Y=3 and SHELL=bash for generic.local.bash and X=2, Y=4 and SHELL=sh for generic.local.sh

Scheduler Directives

We can also define scheduler directives based on executor type, in this example we define sbatch property per executor type. Note that sbatch property in the executors section will override the sbatch property defined in the top-level file otherwise it will use the default.

buildspecs:
  executors_sbatch_declaration:
    type: script
    executor: 'generic.local.(bash|sh)'
    description: Declaring env and vars by executors section
    tags: [tutorials]
    run: hostname
    sbatch: ["-N 4"]
    executors:
      generic.local.bash:
        sbatch: ["-n 4", "-N 1", "-t 30"]
      generic.local.sh:
        sbatch: ["-n 8", "-N 1", "-t 60"]

Cray Burst Buffer and Data Warp

You can also define BB and DW directives in the executors field to override cray burst buffer and data warp settings per executor. buildtest will use the fields BB and DW and insert the #BB and #DW directives in the job script. For more details see Cray Burst Buffer & Data Warp.

buildspecs:
  create_burst_buffer_executors:
    type: script
    executor: "generic.local.(sh|bash)"
    sbatch: ["-N 1", "-t 10", "-C knl"]
    description: Create a burst buffer for multiple executors
    tags: [jobs]
    executors:
      generic.local.sh:
        BB:
          - create_persistent name=buffer1 capacity=10GB access_mode=striped type=scratch
        DW:
          - persistentdw name=buffer1
      generic.local.bash:
        BB:
        - create_persistent name=buffer2 capacity=10GB access_mode=striped type=scratch
        DW:
          - persistentdw name=buffer2
    run: hostname

Custom Status by Executor

The status and metrics field are supported in executors which can be defined within the named executor. In this next example, we will define executor generic.local.bash to match for returncode 0 or 2 while second test will use executor generic.local.sh to match returncode of 1.

buildspecs:
  status_returncode_by_executors:
    type: script
    executor: "generic.local.(bash|sh)"
    description: define status per executor type.
    tags: [tutorials]
    run: exit 0
    executors:
      generic.local.bash:
        status:
          returncode: [0, 2]
      generic.local.sh:
        status:
          returncode: 1

Now let’s run this test and we will see the test using executor generic.local.sh will fail because we have a returncode mismatch even though both tests got a 0 returncode as its actual value.
