infratest-formula

A Salt formula to install and configure the infratest module.

This formula was initialized with Saltscaffold.

Default configuration

By default, the formula is disabled. When enabled, it will install git, python-pip, and testinfra as dependencies for pulling the infratest module down from Github and loading it into Salt.

# infratest/defaults.yml
infratest:
  enabled: false
  run_all: false
  mockup:
    enabled: true
    deps:
      - git
      - python-pip
  install:
    git: true
    pkg: infratest # should a package be available in the future
    url: https://github.com/ssplatt/saltstack-infratest-module.git
    target: /srv/salt/_modules
    branch: master
    user: root
    deps:
      from_pip: true
      pkgs:
        - testinfra

Development and Testing

Ensure Vagrant, Ruby, and Ruby Gems packages are installed.

(Mac) Install and setup brew:

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

brew install cask
brew cask install vagrant

cd <formula dir>
bundle install

or

sudo gem install test-kitchen
sudo gem install kitchen-vagrant
sudo gem install kitchen-salt

Run a converge on the default configuration:

kitchen converge

Test in the Cloud

Instead of running on a VM locally using Vagrant, you can test the formula on a cloud provider, like Linode. The settings are configured in the .kitchen-ci.yml file.

See the kitchen-linode repository for more details.
