For some time now, we had some issues with molecule when building test
images for ansible-freeipa, and replaced the image creation with custom
build scripts that use commom container tools (like Dockerfiles and the
build command).
As there's no more tasks that require the use of molecule, this patch
removes the last bits used by it, and fixes documentation and lint
scripts and configuration.
On some systems it is required or desired to run Ansible with a specific
Python interpreter. This patch allows the selection of the Python binary
to use for the pytest playbook tests by setting the environment variable
IPA_PYTHON_PATH. Set it the the full path of the Python interpreter.
pytest provide the means to skip tests based on patterns, but writing
these patterns for ansible-freeipa might not be feasible.
This PR allows the selection of playbook tests and modules that will
be executed with pytest using the environmentt variables IPA_ENABLED_TESTS
IPA_ENABLED_MODULES, IPA_DISABLED_TESTS or IPA_DISABLED_MODULES.
When using IPA_ENABLED_MODULES, all modules will be disabled, and only
the modules in the enabled list will be tested. If using the test
filter, IPA_ENABLED_TESTS, all tests are disabled, unless they are in
the enabled test lists.
If the IPA_DISABLED_* version is used, tests and modules are enabled by
default, and the list is used to disable the module or specific test.
To disable a test or module in Azure CI, edit the file
`tests/azure/variables` and add the desired tests or modules to the
parameter variables `enabled_modules`, 'enabled_tests`, `disabled_tests`
or `disable_modules`.
Note that, if added to the `master` branch, this will affect the tests
for every pipeline that it is include (including 'nightly'), so it should
be used with care.
It can be used with TEMP commits to enable only the desired tests,
speeding up upstream tests.
CentOS 8 images are not supported anymore, and we are using CentOS 8
Stream images.
This patch removes all configuration for CentOS 8 and updates test
README to point to the available container images.
Altough configuring DNS and KRA support on the testing server node
provides broad coverage support, it does not represent all scenarios
where ansible-freeipa can be used, for example without DNS support.
This documentation updates removes the requirement for DNS and KRA
support, and highlights what is expected with different configurations.
Until now ansible-freeipa repository only had playbook tests. This
commit introduces the ability of creating TestCase classes connected to
the master host. This connection can be used to run commands in the
managed host after the ansible playbook execution is the allowing the
verification of the machine state.
test_users_absent.yml was using users_absent.json. It has been adapted to
use users.json instead with an additional json_query to get only the names
from users_present.json.
create_users_json.yml has been added to create users.json if it is missing
containing 500 users. It is included by test_users_present.yml and
test_users_absent.yml.
users_present.sh has been renamed to users.sh and modified to create by
default users.json with 1000 users and additional with password and
passwordexpiration in two years.
jmespath has been added to pip install list in
tests/azure/templates/playbook_tests.yml to emable the use of json_query.
The requirement for jmespath has been added to tests/README.md.
* Adapted tests/test_playbook_runs.py script to allow tests to be
executed from a docker container.
* Added molecule scenarios to create/destroy test containers and
respective documentation in tests/README.md.
