## Wheel Test

This directory is dedicated to tests that require a built TensorFlow wheel
file for testing, such as:

* Ensuring the entire API is importable
* Testing downstream projects against the wheel

Ensure you have Bazel installed and accessible from your command line.

These tests use hermetic Python. They also require a built TensorFlow wheel file
and a requirements_lock file. The requirements_lock file is generated by the

# it enables a derived --config setting.  If RBE is not available (i.e. there
# is no --config setting), bazel would fail and quit. This script does a quick
# check This script checks for such errors early
if ! grep "rbe_$TFCI_BAZEL_TARGET_SELECTING_CONFIG_PREFIX" .bazelrc; then
  cat <<EOF
ERROR: RBE was enabled via the 'rbe' env in the 'TFCI' variable.
       TFCI: $TFCI

# Note: in awk, "print $N" prints the Nth "field", where fields are strings separated
# by whitespace. The flag "-F<x>" changes the behavior such that fields are now strings
# separated by the character <x>. Therefore, -F\' (escaped single quote) means that field
# $2 in <Tensor'flow'> is <flow>. This is useful for reading string literals like below.

# lean and easy to follow. When in doubt, remember that for CI scripts, "keep it
# simple" is MUCH more important than "don't repeat yourself."

### Running a TensorFlow server

TensorFlow is a platform for distributed computing, and as such there is a
TensorFlow server (`tf.train.Server`). The TensorFlow server is intended for
internal communication only. It is not built for use in untrusted environments
or networks.
