Drivers need to opt into the new test. Depending on how the driver describes its behavior, the check can be more specific. Currently it distinguishes between getting any kind of information about the storage class (i.e. assuming that capacity is not exhausted) and getting one object per node (for local storage). Discovering nodes only works for CSI drivers. The immediate usage of this new test is for csi-driver-host-path with the deployment for distributed provisioning and storage capacity tracking. Periodic kubernetes-csi Prow and pre-merge jobs can run this test. The alternative would have been to write a test that manages the deployment of the csi-driver-host-path driver itself, i.e. use the E2E manifests. But that would have implied duplicating the deployments (in-tree and in csi-driver-host-path) and then changing kubernetes-csi Prow jobs to somehow run for in-tree driver definition with newer components, something that currently isn't done. The test then also wouldn't be applicable to out-of-tree driver deployments. Yet another alternative would be to create a separate E2E test suite either in csi-driver-host-path or external-provisioner. The advantage of such an approach is that the test can be written exactly for the expected behavior of a deployment and thus be more precise than the generic version of the test in k/k. But this again wouldn't be reusable for other drivers and also a lot of work to set up as no such E2E test suite currently exists. |

Kubernetes (K8s)

Kubernetes, also known as K8s, is an open source system for managing containerized applications across multiple hosts. It provides basic mechanisms for 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.
Try our interactive tutorial.
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.
mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/k8s.io
cd $GOPATH/src/k8s.io
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.
