All version up to and including x.y.z-alpha.0 are treated as if we were still the previous minor version x.(y-1). There are two reason for this: - During code freeze around (at?) -rc.0, the master branch already identfies itself as the next release with -alpha.0. Without this special case, we would change the version skew testing from what has been tested and been known to work to something else, which can and at least once did break. - Early in the next cycle the differences compared to the previous release are small, so it's more interesting to go back further.
This directory contains a testsuite with automatic upgrade/downgrade tests for DRA. Conceptually this is like an integration test, in the sense that it starts/stops cluster components and runs tests against them.
The difference is that it starts Kubernetes components by running the actual binaries, relying on local-up-cluster.sh for the logic and configuration steps. Because local-up-cluster.sh needs additional permissions and preparations on the host, the test cannot run in "make test-integration" and just skips itself there.
To run it:
-
Make sure that hack/local-up-cluster.sh works:
- sudo must work
- Set env variables as necessary for your environment.
-
Ensure that /var/lib/kubelet/plugins, /var/lib/kubelet/plugins_registry, and /var/run/cdi are writable.
-
Build binaries with
make. -
Export
KUBERNETES_SERVER_BIN_DIR=$(pwd)/_output/local/bin/linux/amd64(or whatever is your GOOS/GOARCH and output directory). -
Optional: export
KUBERNETES_SERVER_CACHE_DIR=$(pwd)/_output/local/bin/linx/amd64/cache-dirto reuse downloaded release binaries across test invocations. -
Optional: set ARTIFACTS to store component log files persistently. Otherwise a test tmp directory is used.
-
Invoke as a Go test (no need for the ginkgo CLI), for example:
go test -v -count=1 -timeout=1h ./test/e2e_dra -args -ginkgo.v dlv test ./test/e2e_dra -- -ginkgo.v make test KUBE_TIMEOUT=-timeout=1h WHAT=test/e2e_dra FULL_LOG=true KUBE_TEST_ARGS="-count=1 -args -ginkgo.v"
make test instead of make test-integration is intentional: local-up-cluster.sh
itself wants to start etcd. -count=1 ensures that test runs each time it is invoked.
-v and -ginkgo.v make the test output visible while the test runs.
To simplify starting from scratch, ./test/e2e_dra/run.sh cleans
up, sets permissions, and then invokes whatever command is specified on the
command line:
./test/e2e_dra/run.sh go test ./test/e2e_dra
The test is implemented as a Ginkgo suite because that allows reusing the same helper code as in E2E tests. Long-term the goal is to port that helper code to ktesting, support ktesting in test/e2e, and turn this test into a normal Go test.
