The tests assumed that instantiating a DRAManager followed by
informerFactory.WaitForCacheSync would be enough to have the manager
up-to-date, but that's not correct: the test only waits for informer *caches*
to be synced, but syncing *event handlers* like the one in the manager may
still be going on. The flake rate is low, though:

It becomes higher when changing WaitForCacheSync such that it doesn't poll and
therefore returns more promptly, which is where this flake was first observed.
The fix is to run the test in a syntest bubble where Wait can be used to wait
for all background activity, including event handling, to be finished before
proceeding with the test.
synctest is less forgiving about lingering goroutines. A synctest bubble must
wait for gouroutines to stop, which in this case means that there has to be
a way to wait for the metric recorder shutdown. Event handlers have to be
removed.
This could be done with plain Go, but here test/utils/ktesting is used instead
because it offers some advantages:
- less boilerplate code
- automatic cancellation of the context (i.e. less manual context.WithCancel)
- tCtx.SyncTest is a direct substitute for t.Run, which avoids re-indenting
sub-tests. synctest itself needs another anonymous function, which makes
the line too long and forced re-indention:
t.Run(... func(...) {
synctest.Test(... func() {
})
})
For the sake of consistency all tests get updated.
While at it, some code gets improved:
- t.Fatal(err) is not a good way to report an error because
there is no additional markup in the test output that indicates
that there was an unexpected error. It just logs err.Error(),
which might not be very informative and/or obvious.
- newTestDRAManager aborts in case of a failure instead of
returning an error.
Kubernetes (K8s)
Kubernetes, also known as K8s, is an open source system for managing containerized applications across multiple hosts. It provides basic mechanisms for the deployment, maintenance, and scaling of applications.
Kubernetes builds upon a decade and a half of experience at Google running production workloads at scale using a system called Borg, combined with best-of-breed ideas and practices from the community.
Kubernetes is hosted by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). If your company wants to help shape the evolution of technologies that are container-packaged, dynamically scheduled, and microservices-oriented, consider joining the CNCF. For details about who's involved and how Kubernetes plays a role, read the CNCF announcement.
To start using K8s
See our documentation on kubernetes.io.
Take a free course on Scalable Microservices with Kubernetes.
To use Kubernetes code as a library in other applications, see the list of published components.
Use of the k8s.io/kubernetes module or k8s.io/kubernetes/... packages as libraries is not supported.
To start developing K8s
The community repository hosts all information about building Kubernetes from source, how to contribute code and documentation, who to contact about what, etc.
If you want to build Kubernetes right away there are two options:
You have a working Go environment.
git clone https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes
cd kubernetes
make
You have a working Docker environment.
git clone https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes
cd kubernetes
make quick-release
For the full story, head over to the developer's documentation.
Support
If you need support, start with the troubleshooting guide, and work your way through the process that we've outlined.
That said, if you have questions, reach out to us one way or another.
Community Meetings
The Calendar has the list of all the meetings in the Kubernetes community in a single location.
Adopters
The User Case Studies website has real-world use cases of organizations across industries that are deploying/migrating to Kubernetes.
Governance
Kubernetes project is governed by a framework of principles, values, policies and processes to help our community and constituents towards our shared goals.
The Kubernetes Community is the launching point for learning about how we organize ourselves.
The Kubernetes Steering community repo is used by the Kubernetes Steering Committee, which oversees governance of the Kubernetes project.
Roadmap
The Kubernetes Enhancements repo provides information about Kubernetes releases, as well as feature tracking and backlogs.
