Look here for BT's instructions: {wiki: BtsTestingCondorOnWindows BT's Testing Condor On Windows }

{section: Requirements}

*: Install Active-State Perl
*: Make a git clone of the HTCondor repo OR unpack the source tarball
*: Build HTCondor for Windows: {wiki: BuildingHtcondorOnWindows Instructions }


{section: Preparing for testing}

The easiest way to get an ititial Windows HTCondor test environment
is to build HTCondor from git.  It is possible to download the HTCondor MSI or tarball and test that, but you will need to also have the tests and the msconfig tools that you get from a git clone or from the source tarball.

{section: Testing needs}

There are five things needed for testing on windows that need to be assembled

1: built HTCondor release_dir or equivalent (unpack the .ZIP release)
1: all sources for src/condor_tests including subdirectories
1: Condor.PM, CondorUtils.pm, CondorTest.pm, CondorPersonal.pm and batch_tests.pl from src/condor_scripts
1: built tests
1: working personal HTCondor config

{section: Get tests from the HTCondor sources}

You must copy some files from the condor sources into into the directory you wish to test in.

{term}
set SRCDIR=\scratch\CONDOR_SRC
set testdir=\scratch\test001
mkdir %testdir%
xcopy /Q /Y "%SRCDIR%\src\condor_tests\*" "%testdir%\condor_tests\"
xcopy /Q /Y "%SRCDIR%\src\condor_tests\Check\*" "%testdir%\condor_tests\Check\"
xcopy /Q /Y "%SRCDIR%\src\condor_scripts\*.pm" "%testdir%\condor_tests\"
xcopy /Q /Y "%SRCDIR%\src\condor_scripts\*.pl" "%testdir%\condor_tests\"
{endterm}

{section: Install HTCondor in the test dir and create a configuration }

CD to the directory where HTCondor is built (where your condor.sln file is), build the tests, and install HTCondor into the testing directory.

Install HTCondor into the testing dir
{term}
cd \scratch\build
set testdir=\scratch\test001
cmake -DBUILD_TYPE=Debug -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=%testdir% -P cmake_install.cmake
{endterm}

Create a HTCondor configuration that all of the tests will derive from.
Assuming the environment variable SRCDIR points to HTCondor sources:
{term}
pushd "%testdir%"
cscript "%SRCDIR%\msconfig\init_config.wsf" ETC=etc PERSONAL=Y RUNJOBS=A
mkdir log
mkdir spool
mkdir execute
popd
{endterm}

{section: Build and Install the tests }

Build the tests and copy them into the testing dir. Run these commands
in your HTCondor build directory.  There are some tests that will still run
if you skip this step.
{term}
devenv condor.sln /Build Debug /Project BLD_TESTS
xcopy /Q /Y src\condor_tests\list_* "%testdir%\condor_tests\"
xcopy /Q /Y src\condor_tests\Debug\*.exe "%testdir%\condor_tests\"
xcopy /Q /Y src\condor_tests\Debug\*.pdb "%testdir%\condor_tests\"
{endterm}

{section: Setup environment and start HTCondor }

Set PATH and CONDOR_CONFIG environment variables
{term}
set CONDOR_CONFIG=%testdir%\condor_config
set PATH=%testdir%\bin;%PATH%
{endterm}

Start HTCondor and verify that it is running.  There are some tests that
will still run if you skip this step.
{term}
start %testdir%\bin\condor_master -f -t
condor_who -wait:60 "NumDead > 0 || AllAlive"
{endterm}

{section: Run a test }

You should now be able to run single tests in the testing location you chose.
For instance to run test XXX.run:

{code}
cd %testdir%\condor_tests
batch_test.pl -d . -t XXX.run
{endcode}

{section: Results}

Test XXX.run will typically have output and error files xxx.out and xxx.err in the same directory in which the test ran. Sometimes there will be additional files in a XXX.saveme subdirectory.
