SUMMARY
Was going trough the list with issues and found 958; which seemed a quick fix.
What I fixed with with this PR:
Added support for copying files to init containers.
Fixed the format message when an exec is failing for a pod (the order was wrong).
Added a check if the container that you try to run copy for is started.
ISSUE TYPE
Bugfix Pull Request
COMPONENT NAME
copy.py module
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Some testing.
Verify that the pod does not exist:
kubectl -n default get pod/yorick
Output:
Error from server (NotFound): pods "yorick" not found
Run the playbook to create the file, create the deployment, wait for the init container to be ready, copy the created file to the init container, cat the copied file (using kubernetes.core.k8s_exec) that is now in the init container and try to copy the created file to the (not started) container (which fails - to see the new error message for it):

Move integration test suite from molecule to ansible-test
SUMMARY
molecule has been replaced with ansible-test
some test cases have been updated
k8s_apply : remove duplicated tasks increasing the running time of the test
helm: use different namespaces for different test cases in order to wait for the namespace deletion before moving to the next test.
all: remove wait: yes at the end of each test when deleting namespace, the role used to create namespace will ensure that it is deleted before if existing.
