- renamed the capture method from "capture_view_hierachy" to
"capture_ui_hierarchy" to fix typo and make more descriptive.
- Change the file extension of the cature file to ".uix" because this is
the extension uiautomatorviewer looks for.
Constraints and allowed values of Extension Parameters will now be check
when the Parameter value is set, rather than when validating the
extension. Mandatory status of a Parameter is still checked during
valudation.
- Device subclasses should provide their own implementation.
Default behaviour is to raise a `NotImplementedError`
- Workload subclasses can set `requires_network` to `True` and
network connectivity check will be performed during `setup()`
Dump window hierarchy view from uiautomator to a file when WA fails
during execution. Note: the xml file are pre-formatted after dump.
Implementation specific to android.device.
Previously you could have `override` set to True on parameters that
only existed in the current scope.
Now if you try to override a parameter that doesn't exist higher up
in the hiarchy you will get a ValueError.
Previously if parameters with the same names and override set to True
were added to an extension at the same level one would silently
override the other.
This is no longer the case and an error will be show instead.
Also added tests to check that this is handeled correctly
- Two different parameters may now have the same global alias as long as
their types match
- `extension_asset` resource getter now picks up the path to the mouted
filer from ``remote_assets_path`` global setting.
Failed jobs will now be automatically retired. This is controlled by two
new settings:
retry_on_status - a list of statuses which will be consided failures and
result in a retry
max_retries - number of retries before giving up
Dynamic modules may be loaded automatically on device initialization if
the device supports them. Dynamic modules implent probe() method to
determine whether they are supported by a particular deviced.
devcpufreq and cpuidle have been converted into dynamic modules
- standardisded on a single context argument
- removed Device.init() no longer necessary as initilize now
automatically gets propagated up the hierarchy. Renamed the existing
use of it to "initilize".
- related pylint cleanup.
- added initialze and finalize methods to workloads, which were the only
major extension types that did not have them
- Semanatics for initialize/finalize for *all* Extensions are changed so
that now they will always run at most once per run. They will not be
executed twice even if invoke via istances of different subclasses (if
those subclasses defined their own verions, then their versions will
be invoked once each, but the base version will only get invoked
once).
- add IterationResult-level classifiers that get merged into every
added metric (saves having to pass the same classifiers to each
metric added).
- Added a global alias to csv result processor's use_all_classifiers
attribute.
As instrumentation can be enabled/disabled for a specfic workload
execution, it is sometimes not enough to verify that an instrument has
been installed for the run; one might need to check whether it is
currently enabled.
- Adding "classifiers" field to Metric objects. This is a dict mapping
classifier names (arbitrary strings) to corresponding values for that
specific metrics. This is to allow extensions to add
extension-specific annotations to metric that could be handled in a
generic way (e.g. by result processors).
- Updating telemetry workload to add classifiers for the url and internal
iteration (or "time") for a particular result.
- Updating csv result processor with the option to use classifiers to
add columns to results.csv (either using all classifiers found, or
only for the specific ones listed).
integer and boolen are defined in wlauto.utils.types; they perform more
intuitive conversions from other types, particularly strings, so are
more suitable than int and bool for parameters. If, for whatever reason,
native types are in fact desired for a Parameter, this behavior can be
supressed by specifying convert_types=False when defining the parameter.
