+6.4 Rolling up Miscellaneous Data +
+
+Use the -load-test-data switch to roll up arbitrary data from a test into the test_data table.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+# Fields are: +# category,variable,value,expected,tol,units,comment,status + +$MT_MEGATEST -load-test-data << EOF +foo,bar,1.2,1.9,> +foo,rab,1.0e9,10e9,1e9 +foo,bla,1.2,1.9,< +foo,bal,1.2,1.2,<,,Check for overload +foo,alb,1.2,1.2,<=,Amps,This is the high power circuit test +foo,abl,1.2,1.3,0.1 +foo,bra,1.2,pass,silly stuff +faz,bar,10,8mA,,,"this is a comment" +EOF ++
+New entries are keyed on the category and variable. If a new record is inserted with a category and variable that have already been used the new record will replace the old record.
+
+
+Where value, expected and tol are specified the behavior is as follows.
+
+-
+
- +If value, expected and tol are numbers then status is calculated as PASS if (expected-tol) <= value <= (expected+tol) + +
- +If value and expected are numbers and tol is >, <, >= or <= then value is compared with expected using the operator given by tol + +
- +If status is specified its value overrides the above calculations. + + +
+6.5 Rolling up Runs +
+
+To roll up a number of tests in a sequence of runs to a single run use the -rollup command.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+megatest -rollup :sysname ubuntu :fsname nfs :datapath none :runname rollup_ww38 ++
+All keys must be specified and the runname is the name of the run that will be created. All paths are kept original inside the database. When -remove-runs is used to delete runs the data is not deleted if there are rollups that refer to the data.

+> dashboard & ++
+Pushing one of the buttons on the main dashboard will bring up the test specific dashboard. Values are updated in semi-real time as the test runs.

-8 Reference +8 Generating an OpenDocument Spreadsheet from the Database +
+
+And OpenDocument multi-paned spreadsheet can be generated from the megatest.db file by running -extract-ods
+
+
+
+
+
+
+megatest -extract-ods results.ods :runname % ++
+You can optionally specify the keys for your database to limit further the runs to extract into the spreadsheet. The first sheet contains all the run data and subsequent sheets contain data rolled up for the individual tests.
