| 1 | +# Orderer Traffic Engine (OTE) |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +## What does OTE do? |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | ++ This Orderer Traffic Engine (OTE) tool creates and tests the operation of a |
| 6 | +hyperledger fabric ordering service. |
| 7 | ++ The focus is strictly on the orderers themselves. |
| 8 | +No peers are involved: no endorsements or validations or committing to ledgers. |
| 9 | +No SDK is used. |
| 10 | + |
| 11 | ++ OTE sends transactions to |
| 12 | +every channel on every orderer, and verifies that the correct number |
| 13 | +of transactions and blocks are delivered on every channel from every orderer. |
| 14 | ++ OTE generates report logs and returns |
| 15 | +a pass/fail boolean and a resultSummaryString. |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +## How does OTE do it? |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | ++ OTE invokes a local copy of the tool driver.sh (including helper files |
| 20 | +network.json and json2yml.js) - |
| 21 | +which is a close copy of the original version at |
| 22 | +https://github.com/dongmingh/v1FabricGenOption. |
| 23 | ++ The driver.sh launches an orderer service network per the user-provided |
| 24 | +parameters including number of orderers, orderer type, |
| 25 | +number of channels, and more. |
| 26 | ++ Producer clients are created to connect via |
| 27 | +grpc ports to the orderers to concurrently send traffic until the |
| 28 | +requested number of transactions are sent. |
| 29 | +Each client generates unique transactions - a fraction of the total |
| 30 | +requested number of transactions. |
| 31 | ++ Consumer clients are created to connect via |
| 32 | +grpc ports to the orderers to concurrently receive delivered traffic |
| 33 | +until all batches of transactions are tallied. |
| 34 | +OTE checks if the correct number of blocks and TXs are delivered |
| 35 | +by all the orderers on all the channels |
| 36 | + |

| 41 | +- GO |
| 42 | + |
| 43 | +Check your Docker and Docker-Compose versions with the following commands: |
| 44 | +```bash |
| 45 | + docker version |
| 46 | + docker-compose version |
| 47 | +``` |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | +### Prepare binaries and images: |
| 50 | + |
| 51 | +- Alternative 1: Prepare all binaries and images using a script |
| 52 | +```bash |
| 53 | + cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/hyperledger/fabric/bddtests/regression/ote |

| 58 | +- - Clone the fabric repository, build the binaries and images |
| 59 | +```bash |
| 60 | + cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/hyperledger/fabric |
| 61 | + make native docker |
| 62 | +``` |
| 63 | +- - Clone the fabric-ca repository, build the images |
| 64 | +```bash |
| 65 | + cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/hyperledger/ |
| 66 | + |
| 67 | + # Use ONE of these methods to clone the repository: |
| 68 | + go get github.com/hyperledger/fabric-ca |
| 69 | + git clone https://github.com/hyperledger/fabric-ca.git |

| 74 | +``` |
| 75 | + |
| 76 | +### Environment Variables for test setup, with defaults: |
| 77 | +``` |
| 78 | + OTE_TXS 55 |
| 79 | + OTE_CHANNELS 1 |
| 80 | + OTE_ORDERERS 1 |
| 81 | + OTE_KAFKABROKERS 0 |
| 82 | + OTE_MASTERSPY false |
| 83 | + OTE_PRODUCERS_PER_CHANNEL 1 |
| 84 | +``` |
| 85 | + |
| 86 | +### Environment Variables for configuration |
| 87 | +Find default values of all variables in hyperledger/fabric/orderer/orderer.yaml |
| 88 | +and hyperledger/fabric/peer/core.yaml. |
| 89 | +``` |
| 90 | + CONFIGTX_ORDERER_ORDERERTYPE solo |
| 91 | + CONFIGTX_ORDERER_BATCHSIZE_MAXMESSAGECOUNT 10 |
| 92 | + CONFIGTX_ORDERER_BATCHTIMEOUT 10 |
| 93 | +
|
| 94 | + Others: |
| 95 | + CORE_LOGGING_LEVEL <unset> |
| 96 | + CORE_LEDGER_STATE_STATEDATABASE leveldb |
| 97 | + CORE_SECURITY_LEVEL 256 |
| 98 | + CORE_SECURITY_HASHALGORITHM SHA2 |
| 99 | +``` |
| 100 | + |
| 101 | +## Execute OTE on shell command line |
| 102 | +There are several environment variables to control the test parameters, |
| 103 | +such as number of transactions, number of orderers, ordererType, and more. |
| 104 | +To see an example test using default settings, simply execute the following. |
| 105 | +```bash |
| 106 | + cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/hyperledger/fabric/bddtests/regression/ote |
| 107 | + go build |
| 108 | + ./ote |
| 109 | + CONFIGTX_ORDERER_BATCHSIZE_MAXMESSAGECOUNT=20 ./ote |
| 110 | + OTE_TXS=100 OTE_CHANNELS=4 ./ote |
| 111 | + CONFIGTX_ORDERER_ORDERERTYPE=kafka OTE_KAFKABROKERS=3 ./ote |
| 112 | +``` |
| 113 | + |
| 114 | +Choose which variables to modify from default values. For example: |
| 115 | + |
| 116 | ++ This test will create eight Producer clients. |
| 117 | ++ Each Producer will send 125 transactions to a different orderer and channel. |
| 118 | ++ 250 total TXs will be broadcast on each channel. |
| 119 | ++ 500 total TXs will be broadcast to each orderer. |
| 120 | ++ Four Consumer clients will be created to receive the delivered |
| 121 | + batches on each channel on each orderer. |
| 122 | ++ 50 batches (with 10 TX each) will be delivered on channel 0, and |
| 123 | + a different 50 batches will be delivered on channel 1. On both Orderers. |
| 124 | ++ 100 batches will be received on every orderer; this is the sum of the |
| 125 | + totals received on each channel on the orderer. |
| 126 | +```bash |
| 127 | + OTE_TXS=1000 OTE_CHANNELS=4 OTE_ORDERERS=2 CONFIGTX_ORDERER_ORDERERTYPE=kafka ./ote |
| 128 | +``` |
| 129 | + |
| 130 | +## Execute OTE GO Tests |
| 131 | +The tester may optionally define environment variables to |
| 132 | +set the test parameters and to |
| 133 | +override certain orderer configuration parameters. |
| 134 | +Then use "go test" to execute Test functions |
| 135 | +to execute either one test, or all go tests, or |
| 136 | +a subset of existing functional go tests using a regular expression |
| 137 | +to choose tests in local test files. |
| 138 | +```bash |
| 139 | + cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/hyperledger/fabric/bddtests/regression/ote |
| 140 | + go test -run ORD77 |
| 141 | + go test -run ORD7[79] |
| 142 | + go test -run batchSz -timeout 20m |
| 143 | + go test -timeout 90m |
| 144 | + |
| 145 | + go get github.com/jstemmer/go-junit-report |
| 146 | + go test -run ORD7 -v | go-junit-report > report.xml |
| 147 | + |
| 148 | +``` |
| 149 | + |
| 150 | +## Execute OTE GO Tests for Continuous Improvement |
| 151 | +Optionally, one can translate the "go test" output to xml for reports. |
| 152 | +This is useful for automated test suites that are automatically |
| 153 | +executed from Jenkins by Continuous Improvement processes. |
| 154 | + |
| 155 | +#### Pre-requisite to convert "go test" output to xml |
| 156 | +```bash |
| 157 | + cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/hyperledger/fabric/bddtests/regression/ote |
| 158 | + go get github.com/jstemmer/go-junit-report |
| 159 | +``` |
| 160 | +#### Example command to execute all "go tests" and convert to xml: |
| 161 | +``` |
| 162 | + cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/hyperledger/fabric/bddtests/regression/ote |
| 163 | + go test -v -timeout 120m | go-junit-report > ote_report.xml |
| 164 | +``` |
