The setup builds gRPC docker images for each language/runtime and upload it to Google Container Registry (GCR). These images, encapsulating gRPC stack
from specific releases/tag, are used to test version compatiblity between gRPC release versions.
-## Step-by-step instructions for adding a new release to compatibility test
+## Step-by-step instructions for adding a GCR image for a new release for compatibility test
We have continuous nightly test setup to test gRPC backward compatibility between old clients and latest server. When a gRPC developer creates a new gRPC release, s/he is also responsible to add the just-released gRPC client to the nightly test. The steps are:
-- Add (or update) an entry in ./client_matrix.py file to reference the github tag for the release.
+- Add (or update) an entry in `./client_matrix.py` file to reference the github tag for the release.
- Build new client docker image(s). For example, for java release `v1.9.9`, do
- `tools/interop_matrix/create_matrix_images.py --git_checkout --release=v1.9.9 --language=java`
- Verify that the new docker image was built successfully and uploaded to GCR. For example,
- - `gcloud beta container images list-tags gcr.io/grpc-testing/grpc_interop_java_oracle8`
- - should show an image entry with tag `v1.9.9`.
+ - `gcloud beta container images list --repository gcr.io/grpc-testing` shows image repos.
+ - `gcloud beta container images list-tags gcr.io/grpc-testing/grpc_interop_java_oracle8` should show an image entry with tag `v1.9.9`.
- Verify the just-created docker client image would pass backward compatibility test (it should). For example,
- `gcloud docker -- pull gcr.io/grpc-testing/grpc_interop_java_oracle8:v1.9.9` followed by
- - `docker_image=gcr.io/grpc-testing/grpc_interop_java_oracle8:v1.9.9 ./testcases/java__master`
+ - `docker_image=gcr.io/grpc-testing/grpc_interop_java_oracle8:v1.9.9 tools/interop_matrix/testcases/java__master`
- git commit the change and merge it to upstream/master.
- (Optional) clean up the tmp directory to where grpc source is cloned at `/export/hda3/tmp/grpc_matrix/`.

-## Instructions for creating GCR images
-- Edit `./client_matrix.py` to include desired gRPC release.
-- Run `tools/interop_matrix/create_matrix_images.py`. Useful options:
- - `--git_checkout` enables git checkout grpc release branch/tag.
- - `--release` specifies a git release tag. Make sure it is a valid tag in the grpc github rep.
- - `--language` specifies a language.
- For example, To build all languages for all gRPC releases across all runtimes, do `tools/interop_matrix/create_matrix_images.py --git_checkout --release=all`.
-- Verify the newly created docker images are uploaded to GCR. For example:
- - `gcloud beta container images list --repository gcr.io/grpc-testing` shows image repos.
- - `gcloud beta container images list-tags gcr.io/grpc-testing/grpc_interop_go1.7` show tags for a image repo.
-
## Instructions for adding new language/runtimes*
- Create new `Dockerfile.template`, `build_interop.sh.template` for the language/runtime under `template/tools/dockerfile/`.
- Run `tools/buildgen/generate_projects.sh` to create corresponding files under `tools/dockerfile/`.

## Instructions for running test cases against GCR images
- Run `tools/interop_matrix/run_interop_matrix_tests.py`. Useful options:

For example, To test all languages for all gRPC releases across all runtimes, do `tools/interop_matrix/run_interop_matrix_test.py --release=all`.
- The output for all the test cases is recorded in a junit style xml file (default to 'report.xml').
