Check collectd installation procedure with capabilities plugin enabled

1. Build and install collectd with debug log level and capabilities plugin enabled. 
2. Start collectd

Collectd has started

Capabilities plugins is loaded

Pass

1. Build and install collectd with debug log level and capabilities plugin enabled. 
2. Start collectd
3. Read the data collectd by plugin
   1. curl localhost:9104

HTTP GET request should result in the display of a data structure about system capabilities read from dmidecode

1. Build and install collectd with debug log level and capabilities plugin enabled. 
2. Start collectd
3. Read the data collectd by plugin using json formatter
   1. curl localhost:9104 | jq .

HTTP GET request should result in the display of a data structure about system capabilities read from dmidecode

jq should display collected data in json fomat,
jq format should return answer: "object"

1. Build and install collectd with debug log level and capabilities plugin enabled. 
2. Start collectd
3. Read the data collectd by plugin using json formatter
   1. curl localhost:9104 | jq .

HTTP GET request should result in the display of a data structure about system capabilities read from dmidecode.

The plugin should get information from pre-selected number of DMI types:

* BIOS - 0
* System - 1
* Baseboard - 2
* Processor - 4
* Cache - 7
* Physical Memory Array - 16
* Memory Device - 17
* IPMI Device - 38
* Onboard Devices Extended Information - 41

1. Build and install collectd with basic configuration of capabilities plugin.
2. Start collectd
3. Compare if the BIOS information returned by the plugin is consistent with DMIDECODE output
   1. curl localhost:9104| jq .|awk '/BIOS/,/}/'
   2. dmidecode | awk '/type 2,/,/^$/'

1. Build and install collectd with basic configuration of capabilities plugin.
2. Start collectd
3. Compare if the System information returned by the plugin is consistent with DMIDECODE output
   1. curl localhost:9104| jq .|awk '/System Information/,/}/'
   2. dmidecode | awk '/type 1,/,/^$/'

1. Build and install collectd with basic configuration of capabilities plugin.
2. Start collectd
3. Compare if the Baseboard information returned by the plugin is consistent with DMIDECODE output
   1. curl localhost:9104| jq .|awk '/"BASEBOARD"/,/}/'
   2. dmidecode | awk '/type 2,/,/^$/'

1. Build and install collectd with basic configuration of capabilities plugin.
2. Start collectd
3. Compare if the Processor information returned by the plugin is consistent with DMIDECODE output
   1. curl localhost:9104| jq .|awk '/'PROCESSORS'/,/}/'
   2. dmidecode | awk '/type 4,/,/^$/'

1. Build and install collectd with basic configuration of capabilities plugin.
2. Start collectd
3. Compare if the Cache information returned by the plugin is consistent with DMIDECODE output
   1. curl localhost:9104| jq .|awk '/"CACHE"/,/"PHYSICAL/'
   2. dmidecode | awk '/type 7,/,/^$/'

1. Build and install collectd with basic configuration of capabilities plugin.
2. Start collectd
3. Compare if the Physical Memory Array information returned by the plugin is consistent with DMIDECODE output
   1. curl localhost:9104| jq .|awk '/"PHYSICAL
   2. dmidecode | awk '/type 16,/,/^$/'

1. Build and install collectd with basic configuration of capabilities plugin.
2. Start collectd
3. Compare if the Memory Device information returned by the plugin is consistent with DMIDECODE output
   1. curl localhost:9104| jq .|awk '/"MEMORY DEVICES"/,/]/'
   2. dmidecode | awk '/type 17,/,/^$/'

1. Build and install collectd with basic configuration of capabilities plugin.
2. Start collectd
3. Compare if the IPMI Device information returned by the plugin is consistent with DMIDECODE output
   1. curl localhost:9104| jq .|awk '/"IPMI DEVICE"/,/}/'
   2. dmidecode | awk '/type 38,/,/^$/'

1. Build and install collectd with basic configuration of capabilities plugin.
2. Start collectd
3. Compare if the Onboard Devices Extended information returned by the plugin is consistent with DMIDECODE output
   1. curl localhost:9104| jq .|awk '/"ONBOARD DEVICES EXTENDED INFORMATION"/,/^$/'
   2. dmidecode | awk '/type 41,/,/^$/'

1. Build and install collectd with basic configuration of capabilities plugin , but comment 'LoadPlugin capabilities'
2. Start collectd

1. Build and install collectd with basic configuration of capabilities plugin.
   1. *Tested data formats for Host and Port field:*
      * lack of quotes and correct address
      * empty
      * commas instead of dots in the ip address
      * random quoted string
2. Start collectd

1. Build and install collectd with basic configuration of capabilities plugin.
   1. # Boolean - true/false
      # Integer
      # Float
      # special chars
      # null
2. Start collectd
