测试
当依赖 OpenTelemetry 来满足您的可观察性需求时,验证某些 Span 是否已创建以及属性是否已正确设置非常重要。例如,您能确定您是否将正确的元数据附加到了最终为 SLO 提供动力的数据中吗?本文档介绍了一种处理此类验证的方法。
设置
在 Elixir/Erlang 中进行测试仅需要 opentelemetry 和 opentelemetry_api 库
{deps, [{opentelemetry_api, "~> 1.4"},
{opentelemetry, "~> 1.5"}]}.
def deps do
[
{:opentelemetry_api, "~> 1.4"},
{:opentelemetry, "~> 1.5"}
]
end
将您的 exporter 设置为 :none,将 Span Processor 设置为 :otel_simple_processor。这可以确保您的测试不会实际将数据导出到目的地,并且 Span 在处理后可以进行分析。
%% config/sys.config.src
{opentelemetry,
[{traces_exporter, none},
{processors,
[{otel_simple_processor, #{}}]}]}
# config/test.exs
import Config
config :opentelemetry,
traces_exporter: :none
config :opentelemetry, :processors, [
{:otel_simple_processor, %{}}
]
来自 入门指南 的 hello 函数的修改版本将作为我们的测试用例
%% apps/otel_getting_started/src/otel_getting_started.erl
-module(otel_getting_started).
-export([hello/0]).
-include_lib("opentelemetry_api/include/otel_tracer.hrl").
hello() ->
%% start an active span and run a local function
?with_span(<<"operation">>, #{}, fun nice_operation/1).
nice_operation(_SpanCtx) ->
?set_attributes([{a_key, <<"a value">>}]),
world
# lib/otel_getting_started.ex
defmodule OtelGettingStarted do
require OpenTelemetry.Tracer, as: Tracer
def hello do
Tracer.with_span "operation" do
Tracer.set_attributes([{:a_key, "a value"}])
:world
end
end
end
