- Torture for ownCloud Client
- ===========================
- This is a set of scripts comprising of two parts:
- * ``torture_gen_layout.pl``: Generation of layout files (random)
- * ``torture_create_files.pl``: Generation of a real file tree based on the
- layout files (deterministic)
- These scripts allow a data set to be produced with the following criteria:
- * realistic in naming
- * realistic in file size
- * realistic in structural size
- without checking in the actual data. Instead, a layout file that gets generated
- once (reference.lay) is checked in. This makes it possible to produce
- standardized benchmarks for mirall. It allows checking for files gone
- missing in action and other kinds of corruption produced during sync runs.
- ``torture_create_files.pl`` can be fine tuned via variables in the script
- header. It sources its file names from ``dict`` wordlist, file extensions and
- other parameters can be added as needed. The defaults should be reasonable
- in terms of size.
- The ``references/`` directory contains default folder layouts.
- Usage
- -----
- In order to create a reference layout and create a tree from it::
- ./torture_gen_layout.pl > reference.lay
- ./torture_create_files.pl reference.lay <targetdir>
- TODO
- ----
- * Based on the layout file, write a validator that checks files for existence
- and size without requiring a full reference tree to be created via
- ``./torture_gen_layout.pl``.
- * The current file naming is fairly tame (i.e. almost within ASCII range).
- Extending it randomly is dangerous, we first need to filter all
- characters forbidden by various OSes. Or maybe not, because we want to
- see what happens? :-). Anyway, you have been warned.
