Modify falco_test.py to look for a boolean multiplex attribute
'json_output'. If true, examine the lines of the output and for any line
that begins with '{', parse it as json and ensure it has the 4
attributes we expect.
Modify run_regression_tests to have a utility function
prepare_multiplex_fileset that does the work of looping over files in a
directory, along with detect, level, and json output arguments. The
appropriate multiplex attributes are added for each file.
Use that utility function to test json output for the positive and
informational directories along with non-json output. The negative
directory is only tested once.
Add additional rules related to using pipe installers within a fbash
session:
- Modify write_etc to only trigger if *not* in a fbash session. There's
a new rule write_etc_installer which has the same conditions when in
a fbash session, logging at INFO severity.
- A new rule write_rpm_database warns if any non package management
program tries to write below /var/lib/rpm.
- Add a new warning if any program below a fbash session tries to open
an outbound network connection on ports other than http(s) and dns.
- Add INFO level messages when programs in a fbash session try to run
package management binaries (rpm,yum,etc) or service
management (systemctl,chkconfig,etc) binaries.
In order to test these new INFO level rules, make up a third class of
trace files traces-info.zip containing trace files that should result in
info-level messages.
To differentiate warning and info level detection, add an attribute to
the multiplex file "detect_level", which is "Warning" for the files in
traces-positive and "Info" for the files in traces-info. Modify
falco_test.py to look specifically for a non-zero count for the given
detect_level.
Doing this exposed a bug in the way the level-specific counts were being
recorded--they were keeping counts by level name, not number. Fix that.
Start using the Avocado framework for automated regression
testing. Create a test FalcoTest in falco_test.py which can run on a
collection of trace files. The script test/run_regression_tests.sh is
responsible for pulling zip files containing the positive (falco should
detect) and negative (falco should not detect) trace files, creating a
Avocado multiplex file that defines all the tests (one for each trace
file), running avocado on all the trace files, and showing full logs for
any test that didn't pass.
The old regression script, which simply ran falco, has been removed.
Modify falco's stats output to show the total number of events detected
for use in the tests.
In travis.yml, pull a known stable version of avocado and build it,
including installing any dependencies, as a part of the build process.
