Change a few critical checks that were failing sometimes:
- A few asserts were changed to wait_for_object_condition
- A 15 second timeout was removed (default used instead)
- Do a full scan at beginning of each test to clear any
cached BSS's. The second test run was getting stale results
and the RSSI values were not expected.
This test took quite a while to execute (~2 minutes on my machine)
because there was simply no other way to test this scenario but
waiting. Now the no-roam-candidates condition can be waited for
rather than just sleeping for 20 seconds. Additionally the default
RoamRetryInterval was being used which is 60 seconds. Instead
main.conf can set this to 5 seconds and really cut down on the time
to wait.
Part of a comment was also removed due to being incorrect. Even
with neighbor reports IWD still must scan, its just that the
scan is more limited and, in theory, faster.
This changes all tests to use the default get_ordered_network behavior
rather than some custom or incorrect logic. Any use of
scan_if_needed=True has been removed since this is now the default.
Also any explicit scanning has been removed for tests which do not
require it (where the default behavior is good enough).
With the addition of connect_bssid/roam very few tests actually
require hwsim. Since hwsim can lead to problems with scan results
its best to have it off by default and have each test that needs
it explicitly turn it on.
Tests which previously turned it off have had that option removed.
Tests that do require hwsim still are vulnerable to scan result
problems, so for these tests beacon_int was added to the hostapd
config which seems to help with reliability somewhat.
Every single roaming test had one of two problems with watching the
state change between roaming --> connected. Either the test used
wait_for_object_condition to wait for 'connected' which could allow
other states in between. Or it simply used an assert. The assert
wouldn't allow other state changes, but at the cost of potentially
failing due to IWD not having made it to the 'connected' state yet.
Now we have wait_for_object_change which takes two conditions:
initial (from_str) and expected (to_str). This API will not allow
any other conditions except these, and will wait for the expected
condition before continuing. This allows roaming test to reliably
wait for the roaming --> connected state change.
After the test-runner re-write many tests were left with
stale options that are no longer used at all. These were
periodically getting removed as changes were made to
individual tests, but its apparent now that a tree wide
removal was needed.
