Class TestConductor

The conductor is the one orchestrating the test: it governs the Akka.Remote.TestKit.Controller's ports to which all Players connect, it issues commands to their FailureInjectorTransportAdapter and provides support for barriers using the Akka.Remote.TestKit.BarrierCoordinator. All of this is bundled inside the TestConductor

Blackhole(RoleName, RoleName, ThrottleTransportAdapter.Direction)

====Note==== To use this feature you must activate the failure injector and throttler transport adapters by specifying testTransport(on = true) in your MultiNodeConfig.

Declaration

public Task<Done> Blackhole(RoleName node, RoleName target, ThrottleTransportAdapter.Direction direction)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
RoleName	node	is the symbolic name of the node which is to be affected
RoleName	target	is the symbolic name of the other node to which connectivity shall be impeded
ThrottleTransportAdapter.Direction	direction	can be either `Direction.Send`, `Direction.Receive` or `Direction.Both`

Returns

Type	Description
Task<Done>

public Task<Done> Disconnect(RoleName node, RoleName target)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
RoleName	node	is the symbolic name of the node which is to be affected
RoleName	target	is the symbolic name of the other node to which connectivity shall be impeded

Returns

Type	Description

Declaration

public void Enter(TimeSpan timeout, RoleName roleName, ImmutableList<string> names)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
TimeSpan	timeout
RoleName	roleName

Exit(RoleName, Int32)

Tell the actor system at the remote node to shut itself down. The node will also be removed, so that the remaining nodes may still pass subsequent barriers.

Declaration

public Task<Done> Exit(RoleName node, int exitValue)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
RoleName	node	is the symbolic name of the node which is to be affected
Int32	exitValue	is the return code which shall be given to System.exit

PassThrough(RoleName, RoleName, ThrottleTransportAdapter.Direction)

Switch the Helios pipeline of the remote support into pass through mode for sending and/or receiving.

====Note==== To use this feature you must activate the failure injector and throttler transport adapters by specifying testTransport(on = true) in your MultiNodeConfig.

Declaration

public Task<Done> PassThrough(RoleName node, RoleName target, ThrottleTransportAdapter.Direction direction)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
RoleName	node	is the symbolic name of the node which is to be affected
RoleName	target	is the symbolic name of the other node to which connectivity shall be impeded
ThrottleTransportAdapter.Direction	direction	can be either `Direction.Send`, `Direction.Receive` or `Direction.Both`

Returns

Type	Description
Task<Done>

RemoveNode(RoleName)

Remove a remote host from the list, so that the remaining nodes may still pass subsequent barriers. This must be done before the client connection breaks down in order to affect an "orderly" removal (i.e. without failing present and future barriers).

Declaration

public Task<Done> RemoveNode(RoleName node)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
RoleName	node	is the symbolic name of the node which is to be removed

Returns

Type	Description
Task<Done>

Shutdown(RoleName, Boolean)

Tell the actor system at the remote node to shut itself down without awaiting termination of remote-deployed children. The node will also be removed, so that the remaining nodes may still pass subsequent barriers.

Declaration

public Task<Done> Shutdown(RoleName node, bool abort = false)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
RoleName	node	is the symbolic name of the node which is to be affected
Boolean	abort	TBD

Returns

Type	Description
Task<Done>	TBD

Exceptions

Type	Condition
InvalidOperationException	TBD

StartClient(RoleName, IPEndPoint)

Connect to the conductor on the given port (the host is taken from setting akka.testconductor.host). The connection is made asynchronously, but you should await completion of the returned Future because that implies that all expected participants of this test have successfully connected (i.e. this is a first barrier in itself). The number of expected participants is set in TestConductor.startController().

Declaration

public Task<Done> StartClient(RoleName name, IPEndPoint controllerAddr)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
RoleName	name
IPEndPoint	controllerAddr

Returns

Type	Description
Task<Done>

| Improve this Doc View Source

StartController(Int32, RoleName, IPEndPoint)

Start the Controller, which in turn will bind to a TCP port as specified in the akka.testconductor.port config property, where 0 denotes automatic allocation. Since the latter is actually preferred, a Future[Int] is returned which will be completed with the port number actually chosen, so that this can then be communicated to the players for their proper start-up.

This method also invokes Player.startClient, since it is expected that the conductor participates in barriers for overall coordination. The returned Future will only be completed once the client’s start-up finishes, which in fact waits for all other players to connect.

Declaration

public async Task<IPEndPoint> StartController(int participants, RoleName name, IPEndPoint controllerPort)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
Int32	participants	participants gives the number of participants which shall connect before any of their startClient() operations complete
RoleName	name
IPEndPoint	controllerPort

Returns

Type	Description
Task<IPEndPoint>

Throttle(RoleName, RoleName, ThrottleTransportAdapter.Direction, Single)

Make the remoting pipeline on the node throttle data sent to or received from the given remote peer. Throttling works by delaying packet submission within the netty pipeline until the packet would have been completely sent according to the given rate, the previous packet completion and the current packet length. In case of large packets they are split up if the calculated end pause would exceed akka.testconductor.packet-split-threshold (roughly). All of this uses the system’s scheduler, which is not terribly precise and will execute tasks later than they are schedule (even on average), but that is countered by using the actual execution time for determining how much to send, leading to the correct output rate, but with increased latency.

====Note==== To use this feature you must activate the failure injector and throttler transport adapters by specifying testTransport(on = true) in your MultiNodeConfig.

Declaration

public Task<Done> Throttle(RoleName node, RoleName target, ThrottleTransportAdapter.Direction direction, float rateMBit)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
RoleName	node	is the symbolic name of the node which is to be affected
RoleName	target	is the symbolic name of the other node to which connectivity shall be throttled
ThrottleTransportAdapter.Direction	direction	can be either `Direction.Send`, `Direction.Receive` or `Direction.Both`
Single	rateMBit	is the maximum data rate in MBit

Returns

Type	Description
Task<Done>
