BinaryRTS

CI

BinaryRTS is a research tool for regression test selection (RTS) based on dynamic binary instrumentation. A sample project and instructions on how to use BinaryRTS can be found here.

Structure

The project has the following structure:

├── binaryrts       <- BinaryRTS sources.
│   ├── client      <- Dynamic binary instrumentation client for DynamoRIO.
│   ├── cli         <- BinaryRTS CLI for test trace conversion and running the test selection.
│   ├── extractor   <- C/C++ function extractor from binaries for Frida agent (Windows-only, experimental).
│   ├── frida       <- Dynamic binary instrumentation agent using Frida (experimental).
│   ├── junit       <- JUnit test listener that can be used to attach BinaryRTS to Java tests.
│   ├── listener    <- C++ test event listener to regularly dump coverage during test execution (e.g., with GoogleTest).
│   └── resolver    <- C/C++ symbol resolver based on DynamoRIO's symbol access library.
├── cmake           <- Internal cmake configuration files.
├── sample          <- Sample GoogleTest project to experiment with BinaryRTS.
└── scripts         <- Scripts and utilities to set up BinaryRTS (e.g., patch GoogleTest main routines).

Build

CMake

Except for the BinaryRTS CLI project, all parts of BinaryRTS can be built using cmake. Run the following commands in the root of the BinaryRTS repository, to build all subprojects:

mkdir build
cd build
# (1) Generate build system using cmake
# Linux/Windows
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ..
# [optional] Change generator and target arch on Windows (currently requires MSVC toolchain v142)
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -G "Visual Studio 16 2019" -A x64 ..
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -G "Visual Studio 17 2022" -A x64 ..
# (2) Build BinaryRTS using generated build system (Win32: MSBuild, Linux: Unix Makefiles)
cmake --build . --config Debug

Docker

There is a Dockerfile for dockerized builds, e.g., on platforms other than Linux/Windows such as macOS. For building the Docker image and creating a container with a new bash session, run:

# Build BinaryRTS docker image 
$ docker build -t binaryrts:1.0 -f Dockerfile.dev .
# Create and run container with new bash session and current working directory mounted into container
$ docker run -v $(pwd):/binary-rts -it binaryrts:1.0 bash

Then, you can run the cmake commands from above inside the bash session to build BinaryRTS.

Disclaimer

BinaryRTS is still under active development (mainly by Daniel Elsner) and we expect changes and improvements while collecting experience during the operation of BinaryRTS. Since this repository is the public version of an internal repository, updates will be pushed regularly, but not continuously.
