9## Introduction<a name="section15701932113019"></a>
10
11XDevice, a core module of the OpenHarmony test framework, provides services on which test case execution depends.
12
13XDevice consists of the following sub-modules:
14
15-   **command**: enables command-based interactions between users and the test platform. It parses and processes user commands.
16-   **config**: sets test framework configurations and provides different configuration options for the serial port connection and USB connection modes.
17-   **driver**: functions as a test case executor, which defines main test steps, such as test case distribution, execution, and result collection.
18-   **report**: parses test results and generates test reports.
19-   **scheduler**: schedules various test case executors in the test framework.
20-   **environment**: configures the test framework environment, enabling device discovery and device management.
21-   **testkit**: provides test tools to implement JSON parsing, network file mounting, etc.
22-   **resource**: provides the device connection configuration file and report template definitions.

52
53        ```
54        python setup.py install
55        ```
56

60    2.  Open the console and run the following command:
61
62        ```
63        python setup.py install
64        ```
65
66
67-   **Modifying the user\_config.xml file**
68
69    Configure information about your environment in the  **user\_config.xml**  file.
70
71    **1. Configure the environment.**
72
73    -   For devices that support hdc connection, refer to the following note to configure the environment.
74
75        >![](figures/icon-note.gif) **NOTE:** 
76        >**ip/port**: IP address and port of a remote device. By default, the parameter is left blank, indicating that the local device \(IP address: 127.0.0.1; port: the one used for hdc startup\) is used as the test device.
77        >**sn**: SN of the test devices specified for command execution. If this parameter is set to  **SN1**, only device SN1 can execute the subsequent  **run**  commands. In this case, other devices are set as  **Ignored**  and not involved in the command execution. You can run the  **list devices**  command and check the value of  **Allocation**  to view the  **sn**  values. You can set multiple SNs and separate each two of them with a semicolon \(;\).
78
79    -   For devices that support serial port connection, refer to the following note to configure the environment.
80
81        >![](figures/icon-note.gif) **NOTE:** 
82        >**type**: device connection mode. The  **com**  mode indicates that the device is connected through the serial port.
83        >**label**: device type, for example,  **wifiiot**
84        >**serial**: serial port
85        >-   **serial/com**: serial port for local connection, for example,  **COM20**
86        >-   **serial/type**: serial port type. The value can be  **cmd**  \(serial port for test case execution\) or  **deploy**  \(serial port for system upgrade\).
87        >    For the open-source project, the  **cmd**  and  **deploy**  serial ports are the same, and their  **com**  values are the same too.
88        >   **serial/baud\_rate, data\_bits, stop\_bits**  and  **timeout**: serial port parameters. You can use the default values.
89
90
91    **2. Set the test case directory.**
92    
93    **dir**: test case directory
94    
95    **3. Mount the NFS.**
96    
97    >![](figures/icon-note.gif) **NOTE:** 
98    >**server**: NFS mounting configuration. Set the value to  **NfsServer**.
99    >**server/ip**: IP address of the mounting environment
100    >**server/port**: port number of the mounting environment
101    >**server/username**: user name for logging in to the server
102    >**server/password**: password for logging in to the server
103    >**server/dir**: external mount path
104    >**server/remote**: whether the NFS server and the XDevice executor are deployed on different devices. If yes, set this parameter to  **true**. Otherwise, set it to  **false**.

106-   **Specify the task type.**
107-   **Start the test framework.**
108-   **Execute test commands.**
109
110    Test framework commands can be classified into three groups:  **help**,  **list**, and  **run**. Among them,  **run**  commands are most commonly used in the instruction sequence.
111
112    **help**
113
114    Queries help information about test framework commands.
115
116    ```

192    >In addition, other parameters can be attached to this command as constraints. Common parameters are as follows:
193    >**-sn**: specifies the devices for test case execution. If this parameter is set to  **SN1**, only device SN1 executes the test cases.
194    >**-c**: specifies a new  **user\_config.xml**  file.

199
200-   **View the execution result.**
201
202    After executing the  **run**  commands, the test framework displays the corresponding logs on the console, and generates the execution report in the directory specified by the  **-rp**  parameter. If the parameter is not set, the report will be generated in the default directory.
203
204    ```
