Changes

Reporter

  • AEreport -html_logs can now display logs which contains < >.

  • -html_logs now supports a specified target location in addition to defaulting to $PWD

Easypy

  • support for new pyats run job CLI command - all documentation now reflects so

    • deprecated old easypy command - with no current plan for removal, as this will break many tools.

  • support for new POSIX style arguments in the command line, instead of custom style only used in pyATS.

  • fixed easypy polluting logging.root.handlers on import

  • log level setting is now applied to root logger instead of just easypy.

  • modified how plugins define their own parsers - now updates the main parser instead of each plugin owning their custom parser.

    • deprecated the old way of how parsers are defined in plugins.

  • Task() class now automatically passes the runtime object to downstream harness if required

  • internal modularization optimizations

Robot

  • support for running RobotFramework scripts within Easypy, with the results aggregated into Easypy report

  • support for pyats run robot CLI command - running a Robot script through Easypy without generating a job file

Topology

  • added yamllint to pyats validate testbed command - now prints out lint errors and warnings.

Miscellaneous:

  • removed httplib2 as a dependency and switched to requests instead

  • Tuned the progress notice for multiprotocol file transfer utilities sftp plugin to be less noisy.

  • fixed CLI core engine, now displays colours properly

  • harmonized internally how parser help is generated

  • find api enhancements

  • Fixed pyats pkg UT - now passes when no TCL tree is set.
