Which version of BuddyWeb do I have installed?

BuddyWeb

There are two major versions of BuddyWeb.

The first version of BuddyWeb was initially introduced as part of CDRouter 3.0. This version was actively developed through CDRouter 4.3.

The second major version of BuddyWeb, aka BuddyWeb2, was introduced as part of CDRouter 5.0. This major rewrite utilizes a database backend for enhanced performance and serves the test engineer with a rich user interface incorporating advanced data management features and scaling to millions of test results per test run.

Both versions are referred to simply as BuddyWeb.

To determine which version of CDRouter you have installed, you can run the buddy -info command as root. This command will provide you with a significant amount of information. To restrict the output to just the version of CDRouter, you can filter it with the grep command, as shown in the example below:

/usr/bin/buddyweb -info | grep "Test Suite"
INFO(setup): Test Suite cdr-mp 5.0 build 216

In this case, we see that the CDRouter version is 5.0. Therefore we know that we have BuddyWeb version 2 installed.
