Include missing `flatten_mapping` call in our implementation of
`construct_mapping`. This is performed by a subclass in the default
implementation which was missing in our previous fix.
The workload could attempt to use the version attribute before it was
discovered to assess the workload activity causing an error however the
whole process can be simplified using newer discovery features.
When attempting to access the message of a exception check not only that
e.args is populated, but also that e.args[0] actually contains
something, before defaulting to str(e).
As per https://github.com/ARM-software/workload-automation/issues/968
the current documentation for detailing the naming scheme for an revent
recording is unclear. Reword the descriptions focusing on the typical
usecase rather then based on a customized target class.
Update checking of attributes to allow for empty structures as they can
be set to empty lists etc. and therefore should not be checking if
explicitly `None`.
In newer versions of PyYAML we need to manually specify the `Loader` to
be used as per https://msg.pyyaml.org/load.
`FullLoader` is now the default loader which attempts to avoid arbitrary
code execution, however if we are running an older version where this is
not available default back to the original Loader.
Due to mismatches in WA and devlib versions this previous upgrade method
could have been trigger before it was needed and would not be called a
second time. Now we can be sure that WA and devlib are updated together
bump the version number again to ensure the upgrade method is called a
second time to ensure the POD is upgraded correctly.
To ensure that a compatible version of devlib is installed on the system
keep track of the version of devlib that is required by WA and provide a
more useful error message if this is not satisfied.
Although WA supports automatic updating during parsing of a serialized
`kernel_config` from devlib, if the installed versions of WA and devlib
have become out of sync where WA has "updated" the old implementation it
will not attempt to update it again when devlib is later updated to use
the new implementation and therefore will not trigger the existing
checks that are in place.
Some tablet devices use an alternate tab switching method due to the
larger screen space. Add support for adding new tabs via the menu
instead of via the tab switcher.
No longer specify a default version to allow any available apks to be
detected and then choose the appropriate automation based on the
detected version.
Refactor to support new supported_versions attribute and since APK
resolution needs to have happened before setting uiauto parameter
move assignments to ``initialize``.
Allow for specifying a list of supported APK versions for a workload. If
a specific version is no specified then attempt to a resolve any valid
version for the workload.
If a workloads `version` attribute is not set, and an APK file is
found, use this as the version number. This allows for workloads to not
specify a default version via parameters and for an available APK to be
automatically chosen.
The Devlib KernelConfig object was refactored in commit
f65130b7c7
therefore update the way KernelConfig objects are deserialized to reflect the new
implementation and provide a conversion for PODs.
Allow for easy configuring of a view for a particular workload as this
can vary depending on the device which can be used when using certain
instruments for example `fps`.
