The ChefDK contains all the tools required to test and develop for this cookbook. A project.toml
file is provided so that all testing commands can be run using the delivery local
cli that comes with ChefDK.
Run delivery local lint
to run cookstyle and delivery local syntax
to run foodcritic.
Run delivery local unit
to run ChefSpec tests.
All cookstyle, foodcritic and Chefspec tests can be run in a single command using delivery local verify
Integration testing with Test Kitchen can also be done using the delivery cli. To execute all stages of testing with test kitchen you can run either delivery local acceptance
or kitchen test
Test Kitchen is configured to use vagrant by default and uses inspec to verify.
A configuration is also provided to use kitchen-dokken for testing. To use dokken instead of vagrant docker must be installed.
$ export KITCHEN_LOCAL_YAML=.kitchen.dokken.yml
$ kitchen list

Although the ChefDK is the recommended way to install dependencies for working with a cookbook, your situation may differ so it is possible to contribute without the ChefDK.
A ruby environment with Bundler installed is a prerequisite for using the testing harness shipped with this cookbook. At the time of this writing, it works with Ruby 2.0 and Bundler 1.5.3. All programs involved, with the exception of Vagrant, can be installed by cd'ing into the parent directory of this cookbook and running "bundle install"
The Rakefile ships with a number of tasks, each of which can be ran individually, or in groups. Typing "rake" by itself will perform style checks with Rubocop and Foodcritic, ChefSpec with rspec, and integration with Test Kitchen using the Vagrant driver by default.Alternatively, integration tests can be ran with Test Kitchen cloud drivers.
$ rake -T
rake integration:cloud # Run Test Kitchen with cloud plugins
rake integration:vagrant # Run Test Kitchen with Vagrant
rake spec # Run ChefSpec examples
rake style # Run all style checks
rake style:chef # Lint Chef cookbooks
rake style:ruby # Run Ruby style checks
rake travis # Run all tests on Travis
Ruby style tests can be performed by Rubocop by issuing either
bundle exec rubocop
or
rake style:ruby
Chef style tests can be performed with Foodcritic by issuing either
bundle exec foodcritic
or
rake style:chef
Unit testing is done by running Rspec examples. Rspec will test any libraries, then test recipes using ChefSpec. This works by compiling a recipe (but not converging it), and allowing the user to make assertions about the resource_collection.
Integration testing is performed by Test Kitchen. Test Kitchen will use either the Vagrant driver or various cloud drivers to instantiate machines and apply cookbooks. After a successful converge, tests are uploaded and ran out of band of Chef. Tests should be designed to ensure that a recipe has accomplished its goal.
Integration tests can be performed on a local workstation using Virtualbox or VMWare. Detailed instructions for setting this up can be found at the Bento project web site.
Integration tests using Vagrant can be performed with either
bundle exec kitchen test
or
rake integration:vagrant
Integration tests can be performed on cloud providers using
Test Kitchen plugins. This cookbook ships a .kitchen.cloud.yml
that references environmental variables present in the shell that
kitchen test
is ran from. These usually contain authentication
tokens for driving IaaS APIs, as well as the paths to ssh private keys
needed for Test Kitchen log into them after they've been created.
Examples of environment variables being set in ~/.bash_profile
:
# digital_ocean
export DIGITAL_OCEAN_CLIENT_ID='your_bits_here'
export DIGITAL_OCEAN_API_KEY='your_bits_here'
export DIGITAL_OCEAN_SSH_KEY_IDS='your_bits_here'
# aws
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID='your_bits_here'
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY='your_bits_here'
export AWS_KEYPAIR_NAME='your_bits_here'
# joyent
export SDC_CLI_ACCOUNT='your_bits_here'
export SDC_CLI_IDENTITY='your_bits_here'
export SDC_CLI_KEY_ID='your_bits_here'
Integration tests using cloud drivers can be performed with either
export KITCHEN_YAML=.kitchen.cloud.yml
bundle exec kitchen test
or
rake integration:cloud
