| The test program |
| ---------------- |
| |
| We need a test program that: |
| |
| - can read a file with the test specs |
| - construct a pipeline using the pipeline definition in the spec file |
| (using gst_parse_launch ()) |
| - add signals to elements in the pipeline |
| - run the pipeline for a fixed (in time/number of iterations) period |
| - record the fireing of the signals |
| - compare the signals to the expected results. |
| |
| |
| spec file contents: |
| ------------------- |
| |
| tcN: name-of-the-tescase |
| tcP: pipeline of the testcase in gst_parse_launch () syntax. |
| tcS: id1, element, signalname (attach to signal in an element) |
| tcS: id2, element, signalname |
| ... |
| tcI: the number of iterations on the top bin |
| tcT: a timeout value in mSecs |
| tcR: id1,1,id2,1,.. (the pattern of signals triggered) |
| or |
| tcR: id1==id2,... (denote an equal number of signals) |
| /n |
