A Kea host reservation written by kea_node_reservations carries the node's
name only as a host-name option. Kea takes the name for the lease and for the
DDNS update from the reservation's "hostname" field, and with that field
absent it takes the name the client advertised instead.
Measured with kea-dhcp4 2.4.1 on a veth pair, ddns-qualifying-suffix
"cluster.local.", a reservation for 192.0.2.50 and a client sending option 12
"otherdesk":
hostname field absent option 12 -> otherdesk.cluster.local
lease -> otherdesk.cluster.local (fqdn fwd+rev)
hostname field present option 12 -> node01.cluster.local
lease -> node01.cluster.local
dhcp_kea_plugin_intent.t now asserts the reservation carries the hostname
field, and netboot-methods.conf adds S-35 "a node advertising another name is
still told its own". The existing S-35 step matches the node's label rather
than the whole option, because a server that qualifies the name with the
cluster domain has still answered with the node's own name.

xCAT-test
Unit tests that run from the source checkout are split by implementation language:
| Test type | Location | Runner |
|---|---|---|
| Perl unit tests | xCAT-test/unit/*.t |
prove -r xCAT-test/unit |
| Shell unit tests | xCAT-test/bats/*.bats |
bats -r xCAT-test/bats |
| DHCP wire tests | xCAT-test/dhcptest/ |
python3 -m unittest discover -s tests, then dhcptest run -i <nic> <conf> |
| CLI functional tests | xCAT-test/autotest/testcase/ and xCAT-test/autotest/bundle/ |
xcattest -f <cluster.conf> -t <case> or xcattest -f <cluster.conf> -b <bundle> |
Use Perl .t tests for Perl modules, Perl scripts, templates, and repository
artifacts. Use BATS tests for shell-script behavior that can be exercised from
the checkout by sourcing a shell library or script and shadowing external
commands.
Shell behavior should not be tested by Perl tests that grep shell source. Put
those tests under xCAT-test/bats instead.
dhcptest is the odd one out: its Python unit tests and dhcptest validate
run offline like the others, but its point is the third column -- driving real
DHCP transactions on a provisioning NIC and asserting on what came back. It
talks to the server only over the wire, so it is agnostic to which DHCP
implementation is answering and to xCAT itself.
See unit/README.md, bats/README.md and dhcptest/README.md for the
detailed rules for each suite.
