[Avocado-devel] Howto change Avocado Data Directories ?

[Andrei Stepanov]

As you can see I tried to change tree config files:

./scripts/avocado config --datadir
Config files read (in order):
    /mnt/tests/spice/qe-tests/avocado/etc/avocado/avocado.conf
    /mnt/tests/spice/qe-tests/avocado/etc/avocado/conf.d/gdb.conf
    /mnt/tests/spice/qe-tests/avocado/etc/avocado/conf.d/vt.conf


head /mnt/tests/spice/qe-tests/avocado/etc/avocado/avocado.conf
[datadir.paths]
# Avocado data dir (holds tests and test auxiliary data, such as ISO files).
base_dir = /mnt/tests/spice/qe-tests/avocado_run
