Building on the "infrastructure as code" idea I have been thinking about how to write tests for the infrastructure. Service monitoring seems like the obvious answer and I am imagining something like a test suite for a "development" version of the configuration management system that would be used in much the same way as a programmer uses a test suite to make sure his program works.
Has anybody done something like this? I imagine the biggest hurdle will be setting up the development environment, complete with scratch hosts and monitoring that can be reconfigured frequently for those hosts, depending on what is being tested. -- Perfection is just a word I use occasionally with mustard. --Atom Powers--
