LX Kitchen

Test SmartOS LX zones using Vagrant and Test Kitchen.

Prerequisites

• Have a look at @sjorge's initial work at http://goo.gl/gu6kp8
• Vagrant (https://www.vagrantup.com/downloads.html)
• The vagrant-smartos-zones plugin, test-kitchen gem and kitchen-vagrant plugin:

vagrant plugin install vagrant-smartos-zones
gem install test-kitchen
gem install kitchen-vagrant

Running it

git clone https://github.com/bixu/lx_kitchen.git

cd lx_kitchen

kitchen verify ## checks the state of tests in the suite

## make some changes (for example, add tests)

kitchen verify

## improve tests and fix bugs as needed

kitchen verify

kitchen destroy ## clean up the testing environment, going back to 'zero'

kitchen test ## a full end-to-end test cycle

See documenation for the preqrequisite tools for more detail.

Writing tests

See Test Kitchen documentation (http://kitchen.ci/docs/getting-started/writing-test)

Caveats

• Only contains tests for Ubuntu LX zones currently.
• Because LX zones are by nature much fatter than SmartOS zones and have to be downloaded for every test run, you'll want a pretty fast internet connection to facilitate faster testing.
