[test-triton.sh] Add an option to unskip all pytest.skip() calls

[vlad-penkin]

Implementation approach

1. Create a temporary copy of the python/test folder
2. Replace all pytest.skip() calls by pass by developing a script which use python ast module and make changes to the temporary copy
3. Run UT on a temporary copy
4. Unskipped run may cause slowness / hangs like behavior, a special watcher needs to be implemented. Recommended approach is to use pytest-timeout

Update:

• Create a temporary copy of the folder
• Replace all pytest.skip() calls by pass by developing a script which use python ast module and make changes to the temporary copy
• Run UT on a temporary copy
• Unskipped run may cause slowness / hangs like behavior, a special watcher needs to be implemented. Recommended approach is to use pytest-timeout
• respond to reviews

#1196 is not target for this issue

[vlad-penkin]

@AshburnLee let's implement unskips via conftest.py. Such approach will not require any source code manipulations / changes.

To unskip the tests, we can add the following code in conftest.py:

import pytest


def pytest_configure(config):

    def unskip(reason=None, allow_module_level=False):
        pass

    skip_f = pytest.skip
    pytest.skip = unskip
    config._skip_f = skip_f


def pytest_unconfigure(config):
    pytest.skip = config._skip_f

To run pytest with custom 'conftest.py' we can use --confcutdir=<path_to_folder_with_conftest.py> pytest parameter.

It seems a better solution, let me try. thanks @vlad-penkin

[AshburnLee]

@vlad-penkin I tried your way, it partially works.
--confcutdir is not used like you described. --confcutdir allows you to specify a directory where pytest will stop searching upwards for configuration files. And conftest.py is more like a hook.
So I think conftest.py & --confcutdir are two different things that is not supposed to used together the way you described.

conftest.py will always take effect to test scripts in the current dir & all the sub-dir.
So Here is my improved implementation: #1345

Please review, thanks

[AshburnLee]

@pbchekin I also supported this on CI, please have a look at .github/workflows/build-test.yml
Thanks~

Update:

Progress: Task starts on 6/11, review starts on 6/14, (lasted 4 workdays)
Risk: pytest-timeout works not fully as expected, spent 1.5 workdays experimenting on it.

[AshburnLee]

Update:

Risk: unskip mode and skip mode(default) have different number of total test cases, (passed and xfail in language cases)

unskip vs default

interpreter: passed: 6222, failed: 31, skipped: 0, xfailed: 703, total: 6956, fixme: 1, pass rate (w/o xfailed): 99.5%
interpreter: passed: 6221, failed: 0, skipped: 32, xfailed: 703, total: 6956, fixme: 1, pass rate (w/o xfailed): 99.49%

• correct
• 31 failed & 1 passed <= 32 skipped [1 passed: test_precise_math[1-tl.math.sqrt_rn(x)-tl.math.sqrt(x.to(tl.float64)).to(tl.float32)]]
• total == total 6956 == 6956
• passed >= passed 6222 >= 6221

unskip vs default

operators: passed: 961, failed: 0, skipped: 3, xfailed: 0, total: 964, fixme: 0, pass rate (w/o xfailed): 99.69% # done 964-3=961
operators: passed: 958, failed: 0, skipped: 3, xfailed: 0, total: 961, fixme: 0, pass rate (w/o xfailed): 99.69% # 961

• FIX: remove read from select file
• total == total 964-3 == 961
• passed >= passed 961 >= 958

unskip vs default

subprocess: passed: 22, failed: 12, skipped: 12, xfailed: 0, total: 46, fixme: 0, pass rate (w/o xfailed): 47.83%
subprocess: passed: 22, failed: 0, skipped: 12, xfailed: 0, total: 34, fixme: 0, pass rate (w/o xfailed): 64.71%

• FIX: remove read from select file
• total == total 46-12 == 34
• passed >= passed 22 >= 22

unskip vs default

language: passed: 9705, failed: 68, skipped: 181, xfailed: 423, total: 10377

• 180 skipped come from skiplist. FIX:, FIX: remove read from select file， the other skip comes from pytest.mark.skipif，So it should be skipped: 1

language: passed: 10332, failed: 0, skipped: 349, xfailed: 521, total: 11202

• skipped 349 == 169(actual number of skipped in log) + 180(skiplist) NOTE：1(pytest.mark.skipif) [extra 1: test_reproducer]

Todo:

Investigate what was happening in language.

[AshburnLee]

• Conclusion:
  In unskip mode, some un-skipped cases cause core-dump, which terminates the Pytest session and results in the current session stopped at NOT 100%, so there are cases that will not be executed. That is the root cause.

• Fix
  I got fix commit in the PR, it is validated locally, now this issue has been fixed.

• Addition
  There are 304 core-dump cases that can be uploaded if needed.
  LTS & Rolling have the same core-dump cases.

Update:

• Done, the requirement has been met.

• default pass rate: https://github.com/intel/intel-xpu-backend-for-triton/actions/runs/9694398290/job/26766329453?pr=1345
• unskip mode pass rate: https://github.com/intel/intel-xpu-backend-for-triton/actions/runs/9694464998/job/26752125839

• core-dump cases are the same for LTS & Rolling. uploaded here https://wiki.ith.intel.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=3615102092

We don't need the list of failed tests in (private) wiki. Just run the workflow and check the "Upload test reports" checkbox.
