Rex meet Rspec~
As an DevOps, I use Puppet and Rex, and like automatic testing for my infrastructure. So when I saw serverspec, I thought: maybe I can do such things in Perl?
I know there are already so many testing frameworks at CPAN. But I like the syntax used by serverspec( yes, evoloved from Rspec!) so DIY begin~
Here is my work:Rex::Test::Spec.
We can use it as follow:
use Rex::Test::Spec;
describe "Nginx Test", sub {
context run("nginx -t"), "nginx.conf testing", sub {
like its('stdout'), qr/ok/;
};
context file("~/.ssh/id_rsa"), sub {
is its('ensure'), 'file';
is its('mode'), '0600';
like its('content'), qr/name\@email\.com/;
};
context file("/data"), sub {
is its('ensure'), 'directory';
is its('owner'), 'www';
is its('mounted_on'), '/dev/sdb1';
isnt its('writable');
};
context service("nginx"), sub {
is its('ensure'), 'running';
};
context pkg("nginx"), sub {
is its('ensure'), 'present';
is its('version'), '1.5.8';
};
context cron, sub {
like its('www'), 'logrotate';
};
context gateway, sub {
is it, '192.168.0.1';
};
context group('www'), sub {
ok its('ensure');
};
context iptables, sub {
};
context port(80), sub {
is its('bind'), '0.0.0.0';
is its('proto'), 'tcp';
is its('command'), 'nginx';
};
context process('nginx'), sub {
like its('command'), qr(nginx -c /etc/nginx.conf);
ok its('mem') > 1024;
};
context routes, sub {
is_deeply its(1), {
destination => $dest,
gateway => $gw,
genmask => $genmask,
flags => $flags,
mss => $mss,
irtt => $irtt,
iface => $iface,
};
};
context sysctl, sub {
is its('vm.swapiness'), 1;
};
context user('www'), sub {
ok its('ensure');
is its('home'), '/var/www/html';
is its('shell'), '/sbin/nologin';
is_deeply its('belong_to'), ['www', 'nogroup'];
};
};
done_testing;
I override the functions Test::More normally export. so I can pass the resource type name as the testing message to every test example belong to themself.
BTW, I wrote these at MBA, but Rex don't support Darwin==! And I have no LInux now... So, I only run one example, the run
example. Happly for help, especially test on SSH interface.
Hi Chenryn,
this looks really awesome. I wonder if we can integrate it into the base Rex distribution?
Keep up the good work,
Jan
It's my pleasure.
