File Support

Problem¶

The performance team wrote two repositories of tests for pulp_file.

fixture generator: Repos to test having files-count 100000 and created using this script
The test scripts themselves: https://github.com/redhat-performance/pulpperf/tree/master/tests

The tests can be run on the pulp3 system using commands by specifying the test along with repos manually.

Solution¶

We need to move these tests into pulp_file's test area

We should create a new "performance" area since these are long running tests, distinct from functional tests.

The tests need to output the runtime of the tests which is the key metric of interest.

The user should be able to run django-admin test performance when in this directory and have it:

1. generate the fixture data it will use in a temporary location
2. serve that data somehow (maybe with nginx?)
3. have the sync tests sync from that and re-sync per the different tests
