Installation

Right now, the tool is only installable manually. First, setup a virtualenv:

python3 -m venv venv

Start it:

source venv/bin/activate

Then install with pip:

pip install .

Examples

Test a patch using only the default test suite (the example file is an internal selftest):

(venv) tgamblin@megalith ~/workspace/yocto/patchtest2 (main)$ patchtest --patch tests/selftests/files/test_mbox_has_signed_off_by.1.fail
PASS: test_mbox_has_commit_message on [PATCH] selftest-hello: fix CVE-1234-56789
FAIL: test_mbox_has_signed_off_by on [PATCH] selftest-hello: fix CVE-1234-56789 (mbox was missing a signed-off-by tag)
FAIL: test_mbox_revert_signed_off_by_exception on [PATCH] selftest-hello: fix CVE-1234-56789 (Mbox is missing Signed-off-by. Add it manually or with "git commit --amend -s")
PASS: test_mbox_shortlog_format on [PATCH] selftest-hello: fix CVE-1234-56789
PASS: test_mbox_shortlog_length on [PATCH] selftest-hello: fix CVE-1234-56789
SKIP: test_mbox_shortlog_revert_format on [PATCH] selftest-hello: fix CVE-1234-56789 (Not a revert commit)
PASS: test_mbox_unidiff_parse_error on [PATCH] selftest-hello: fix CVE-1234-56789

Test the same patch and include the "oe" testsuite (assuming it's included in the default test path):

(venv) tgamblin@megalith ~/workspace/yocto/patchtest2 (main)$ patchtest --patch tests/selftests/files/test_mbox_has_signed_off_by.1.fail --suites oe
