Overview
QA test script for validating JSON-format model configuration in the Triton Inference Server.
Description
This test validates that the Triton Inference Server correctly handles model configurations specified in JSON format. It exercises JSON config parsing, validation of required and optional fields, type coercion, default value application, and error reporting for malformed configurations. The script generates model repositories where config.pbtxt files are replaced or supplemented with JSON-formatted equivalents, starts the server, and verifies that models load successfully with the correct configuration. It also tests the model configuration API endpoint to ensure JSON config is correctly served back to clients, and validates edge cases such as nested JSON objects, arrays, and special character handling.
Usage
Run as part of the Triton QA test suite to validate JSON model configuration. Typically executed in CI/CD pipelines within the Triton Docker container environment.
