How to test

Fuchsia filesystem tests

• Build configuration for fs-tests (Set the product as “core_with_f2fs.x64” if you want to format /data to f2fs)

$ fx set core.x64 --with //src/storage/f2fs:tests

• Run Fuchsia filesystem test suite with f2fs

$ fx test f2fs-fs-tests f2fs-slow-fs-tests

• Run only unit tests

$ fx test f2fs-unittest

Debian guest based Linux compatibility tests

• Prerequisite

Generate Linux image

$ ./src/virtualization/packages/debian_guest/build-image.sh
prebuilt/virtualization/packages/debian_guest/images/x64 x64

• Build configuration

$ fx set core.x64 --with //src/storage/f2fs:tests

• Run the test

$ fx test f2fs-compatibility-test
