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.
Running the tests
Before starting
In order to run ansible-freeipa tests you will need to have ansible, pytest and jmespath installed on your machine. We'll call this local machine controller. jmespath is needed for the json_query filter.
You will also need to have a remote host with freeipa server installed and configured. We'll call this remote host ipaserver.
Some other requirements:
- The
controllermust be able to connect toipaserverthrough ssh using keys. ipaservermust be configured with DNS support. See ipaserver role.- IPA admin password must be
SomeADMINpassword. - Directory Server admin password must be
SomeDMpassword.
Running the tests
To run the tests run:
IPA_SERVER_HOST=<ipaserver_host_or_ip> pytest
If you need to run using a different user you can use ANSIBLE_REMOTE_USER
environment variable. For example:
ANSIBLE_REMOTE_USER=root IPA_SERVER_HOST=<ipaserver_host_or_ip> pytest
To run a single test use the full path with the following format:
IPA_SERVER_HOST=<ipaserver_host_or_ip> pytest tests/test_playbook_runs.py::sudorule::test_sudorule
To select which tests to run based on search use the option -k. For example:
IPA_SERVER_HOST=<ipaserver_host_or_ip> pytest -k dnszone
To see the ansible output use the option --capture=sys. For example:
IPA_SERVER_HOST=<ipaserver_host_or_ip> pytest --capture=sys
To see why tests were skipped use -rs. For example:
IPA_SERVER_HOST=<ipaserver_host_or_ip> pytest -rs
For a complete list of options check pytest --help.
Running tests in a docker container
It's also possible to run the tests in a container.
Creating a container to run the tests
Before setting up a container you will need to install molecule framework:
pip install molecule[docker]>=3
Now you can start a test container using the following command:
molecule create -s centos-8
Note: Currently the containers available for running the tests are:
- centos-7
- centos-8
Running the tests inside the container
To run the tests you will use pytest (works the same as for VMs).
RUN_TESTS_IN_DOCKER=1 IPA_SERVER_HOST=centos-8 pytest
Cleaning up after tests
After running the tests you should probably destroy the test container using:
molecule destroy -s centos-8
See Running the tests section for more information on available options.
Upcoming/desired improvements:
- A script to pre-config the complete test environment using virsh.
- A test matrix to run tests against different distros in parallel (probably using tox).
- Allow to connect to
ipaserverusing ssh and password.
