Added some utility functions for, and documentation about, trigger types used in integtests by bieryAtFnal · Pull Request #161 · DUNE-DAQ/integrationtest

bieryAtFnal · 2026-06-22T18:40:31Z

Description

It is not always easy to determine which trigger type(s) are used in which integtests, nor how to specify the parameters for a given trigger type in a new integtest.

The changes in this PR attempt to help with that, and they provide several utility functions that can be used to enable Fake HSI triggers and/or set basic parameters associated with FakeHSI and/or RandomTriggerCandidateMaker triggers. This PR also include some preliminary documentation about which triggers are used in which integtests.

This PR is correlated with ones in several other repos:

Hi @bieryAtFnal,
Thanks for this updated, much cleaner, functionality.
I'm leaving several suggestions here and across the linked 5 PRs.

Don't think there are any glaring problems, some small style things and some places that could be tidied up.

MRiganSUSX · 2026-06-26T17:48:08Z

+#   exists in the input/template DUNE-DAQ configuration, so there is the possibility of some
+#   confusion if a kRandom TCReadoutMap entry exists.
+# ************************************************************
+def set_RTCM_trigger_params(integtest_params: data_classes.integtest_param_base_class, trigger_rate: float = None,


Should we be consistent here and keep the snake_case, ie set_rtcm_trigger_params ?
(It also breaks PEP 8 but I'm unsure whether we are adhering to that in out python repos)
If you agree, this will need to be addressed across the linked PRs as well.

MRiganSUSX · 2026-06-26T18:06:27Z

+def set_fake_hsi_trigger_params(integtest_params: data_classes.integtest_param_base_class, trigger_rate: float = None,
+                                readout_window_before_ticks: int = None, readout_window_after_ticks: int = None):
+    if trigger_rate is not None:
+        integtest_params.config_substitutions.append(
+            data_classes.attribute_substitution(
+                obj_class="FakeHSIEventGeneratorConf",
+                updates={"trigger_rate": trigger_rate},
+            )
+        )


This is not immediately problematic, but the old places this is replacing (tpreplay_test.py, trigger_bitwords_test.py) were more specific in targeting obj_id="fakehsi".
If we ever have a situation where we have multiple FakeHSIEventGeneratorConf (not sure it is a concern), all would be affected.
The suggestion would be to add an optional obj_id: str = "*" so one can be more specific if needed, with the default doing what it is doing now.

+        fail_msg = "The FakeHSI trigger can only be dynamically enabled in DUNE-DAQ configurations that are generated by the integration test infrastructure, not ones that are pre-defined."


189 chars is above most PEP8 string limits.
If you'd like, this could be split across multiple lines, ie:

fail_msg = ("The FakeHSI trigger can only be dynamically enabled in DUNE-DAQ " "configurations that are generated by the integration test infrastructure, " "not ones that are pre-defined.")

There should be no empty spaces around = in keyword arguments,
ie suggesting changing to obj_id="def-hsi-tc-map".

+# Survey of trigger and readout window configurations that are used in existing integtests, Summer 2026


This documentation is GREAT.
My only concern is whether it makes sense to have the year in the filename instead (completely ok in the text), as updates later on can cause link breaks, or the file may look like it obsolete later on.

MRiganSUSX · 2026-06-26T18:21:05Z

+| long_window_readout_test.py | 0.05 Hz trigger rate, RWBT=-100000000, RWET=1000000, RWW=1.62 sec | - | - |
+| minimal_system_quick_test.py | 1 Hz trigger rate, RWBT=-2000, RWET=5, RWW=32.1 usec | - | - |
+| readout_type_scan_test.py | 1 Hz trigger rate, various readout window widths | - | various rates and readout window widths |
+| sample_ehn1_multihost_test.py | - | - | - |


For a person not reading the whole documentation, it may suggest this test has no triggers.
Maybe we should add a note or legend distinguishing "set by integtest" from "inherited from predefined config"; or add a brief entry such as "1 Hz RTCM + 3 Hz FakeHSI (from predefined config local-1x1-config)".
