videodrone 0.7.4

WebRTC python unit tests inspired to '80s

VideoDrone

Test popular WebRTC Platforms with Selenium HQ and Python. Videodrone want to be a lightweight build system for unittest orchestration. It simply manage "drone connector" with python multiprocessing, at this moment only chrome driver was tested, fill free to contribute with your "drone connector", see section.

Setup

You need a fully working python3 pip environment, with virtualenv installed in.

You can even use build.sh to build your videodrone project.

You can even install videodrone by hands.

mkdir VideoDrones && cd VideoDrones
virtualenv -ppython3 env && source env/bin/activate
pip install videodrone

Create the following directories before executing videodrone.

• y4m, where your preferred y4m files resides. They will be used randomically.
  • mkdir y4ms
  • wget https://media.xiph.org/video/derf/y4m/students_cif.y4m -O y4ms/students_cif.y4m
• driver, where your selenium drivers resides.

Run

VIDEODRONE_DRIVER environment variable can override the driver path settings.

example, this connector is configured to create a drone party to https://meet.jit.si/thatroom

VIDEODRONE_DRIVER=../VideoDrone.orig/drivers/videodrone -c "videodrone.drones.jitsi_chrome" -r peo -y4m ./y4ms/

There will be a party of 4 drones in "thatroom"

videodrone -room thatroom -c "videodrone.drones.jitsi_chrome" -y4m ./y4ms/ -n 4

What happens

Drone Connectors

Drone connectors are selenium browser macros, written in python, as simple as possibile. See videodrone.drones.jitsi_drone for example. Drone connectors must be packaged and installed, them must be available through your PYTHONPATH (sys.path).
