Description

Description
Failure of one SMI Conformance test crashes the tool and the rest of the conformance tests. The tool exits without cleaning up, but leaves resources orphaned. Instead the program should cleanup any test resources before exiting.

Expected Behavior
It makes sense that the tool might have a cascading failure for one set of tests, because one test builds on another within a set, but the tool shouldn't crash. Other test sets should continue to execute. Test resources should not be orphaned.

Environment:

  • Version: meshery-osm adapter v0.1.4

Research direction

Start by reproducing the failure in the meshery-osm adapter's SMI Conformance test tool and trace how one failed test ends execution. Verify the runner's cleanup and continuation behavior across test sets; done means failed tests no longer crash the tool, later sets execute, and test resources are not orphaned.
