Fully Agree with Tomek. Especially with some setup/teardown that is quick and can be repeated for each test every time, using terraform makes no sense. But when you have longer setup that is more complex and takes quite some time, this might be definitely worthwhile. The usual scenario for that will be a) create the environment -> terraform script b) iterate on the tests alternating with c) potentially changing target state of the environment - updating and re-running the terraform script applying the changes. d) tear-down the environment (using terraform script to delete the environment). This already pretty much reflects our complex "helpers" for system tests - basically when we really need a helper, seems that terraform scripts might to better job. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
