Puppet Repository to demonstrate using kitchen-puppet with Vagrant. The tests are stored in the repository rather than separately in /test/integration (as is the chef format)

This demonstrates using test-kitchen, puppet and kitchen-verifier-serverspec to build and verify a server.

Workstation Software Installation

The first thing you need to do is install the test-kitchen environment on your workstation. A useful link is: http://misheska.com/blog/2013/12/26/set-up-a-sane-ruby-cookbook-authoring-environment-for-chef/

The follow instructions are for Windows PC (it will be similar for Mac):

  1. Download and install virtualbox from https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads.
  2. Download and install Vagrant from https://www.vagrantup.com/downloads.html
  3. Download and install the Windows RubyInstaller for 64 bit Ruby 2.1 from http://rubyinstaller.org/downloads.
    • Check the option to add ruby to your path.
  4. Download and install the Windows Ruby DevKit for use with Ruby 2.0 and above (64bits version only) from http://rubyinstaller.org/downloads.
  5. Configure the Ruby DevKit
    • In the devkit directory run “ruby dk.rb init”.
    • Check the config.yml generated has added the the path of the ruby install, if not add it manaully.
    • run “ruby dk.rb install” to bind it to the ruby installation.
  6. Then install the following gems
  • gem install librarian-puppet
  • gem install test-kitchen
  • gem install kitchen-puppet
  • gem install kitchen-vagrant
  • gem install kitchen-verifier-serverspec
  1. git clone the repository https://github.com/neillturner/puppet_vagrant_repo

Check everything installed

In a command window in the puppet_vagrant_repo directory run command

kitchen list

This will return a list if everyting is correctly installed.

Create Servers in Virtual Box on your Workstation.

kitchen create base-nocm-centos-65 -l debug

Build the server.

kitchen converge base-nocm-centos-65 -l debug

Verify the server.

kitchen verify base-nocm-centos-65 -l debug

Shutdown the server.
