(Excellent?) Format Changes to Test Kitchen's kitchen.yml

Format Changes to Test Kitchen's kitchen.yml File

This is happening thanks to a refactoring of the data manipulation code formerly in Kitchen::Config.

There are now 3 main configuration blocks that can be placed in the various levels:

  • driver: Configurtation relavent to Kitchen drivers. This is a combination of what was driver_plugin and driver_config. Backwards compatability is guarenteed with the legacy formats for a time, then will be deprecated (with a warning when encountered), then will be removed in a future release.
  • provisioner: Configuration relating to the automation tool being used. Currently supporting "chef_solo" and "chef_zero". Previously several Chef-related config paths were dumped in a Suite block, namely data_path, data_bags_path, environments_path, nodes_path, roles_path, etc. These will be supported for backwards compatability, then will be deprecated (with a warning when encountered), then will be removed in a future release.

Auto-enable Local HTTP Caching in Test Kitchen

Auto-enable Local HTTP Caching in Test Kitchen

Note: total experiment and hack, looks nasty, could be awesome:

Setup

  • Drop the kitchen.local.yml into $HOME/.kitchen/config.yml
  • Install polipo (with Mac: brew install polipo, with Ubuntu: apt-get install polipo)
  • Drop polipo-start and polipo-console somewhere useful (perhaps $HOME/bin?)
# Windows AMIs don't have WinRM enabled by default -- this script will enable WinRM
# AND install 7-zip, curl and .NET 4 if its missing.
# Then use the EC2 tools to create a new AMI from the result, and you have a system
# that will execute user-data as a PowerShell script after the instance fires up!
# This has been tested on Windows 2008 SP2 64bits AMIs provided by Amazon
#
# Inject this as user-data of a Windows 2008 AMI, like this (edit the adminPassword to your needs):
#
# <powershell>
# Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted
## Default ring creation size. Make sure it is a power of 2,
## e.g. 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512 etc
## ring_size = 64
## enable active anti-entropy subsystem
anti_entropy = on
## location of the console log
log.console.file = ./log/console.log
