Chrome Enterprise Lab is a set of tools for building enterprise experimental labs quickly and easily. The labs so built can be used for system level end-to-end testing of Google Chrome/Chromium. These system tests are required to avoid enteprise regression under some complex enterprise software & networking configurations, such as Microsoft Active Directory.
Have a peek at the Design document.
Also have a peek at the Code of Conduct.
Most of the code is in Go. See Guide to code to get a head start on the code in this repository.
Go: Download Go from the Go download page. This project requires Go 1.23.4. Using other golang build might cause build or test failures.
Depot Tools: Used for managing the checkout and the contributor workflow.
Protocol Buffers Compiler: Protocol buffers are used extensively for wranging all the data that needs to be shuttled around. Run protoc --version to check the protoc version. The protoc version should be at least 3.5.1. If protoc is not installed, install it from command line:
sudo apt install -y protobuf-compiler
python: python should be on most systems. check by running python --version if that doesn't work try python3 --version if you have python3 install this to make it your primary version: sudo apt-get install python-is-python3
pip: python‘s package manager. make sure you have it by typing pip in your terminal. if you don’t: sudo apt-get install pip
absl-py: This Python package is used by tests. Install it by running pip install absl-py.
Setting GO environment variables by adding below lines into ~/.bashrc file
export GOPATH=$HOME/go export GOBIN=$GOPATH/bin export PATH=$PATH:$GOBIN
Clone this repository:
Assumes that $GOPATH is a single path and not a : delimited list.
mkdir -p ${GOPATH}/src/chromium.googlesource.com/enterprise cd ${GOPATH}/src/chromium.googlesource.com/enterprise git clone https://chromium.googlesource.com/enterprise/cel cd cel
Pull dependencies
python3 build.py deps --install
Use the build script:
python3 build.py build
If you see an error message like google/protobuf/descriptor.proto: File not found, see the protoc prerequisites (specifically the includes step).
Also make sure that all unit tests for the Go source files are passing.
python3 build.py test
See CONTRIBUTING.
The CELab deployment binary and its Python test framework is uploaded into CIPD as a package.
Here are the general steps to release the package.
