Hi cloud-init Community, The new 0.7.9 release of cloud-init [1] includes for the first time an integration test framework.
The framework utilizes LXD to inject a build of cloud-init, boot using a specific user-data configuration, collect logs and output from the container, and to then test are executed against those logs and output. You can read more about how to write tests, the test execution flow, and the architecture on the cloud-init Read the Docs [2]. Currently, tests are ran daily against Ubuntu Xenial, Yakkety, and Zesty images [3] with cloud-init built from master. The tests are also executed if a new package version of cloud-init exists in Xenial-proposed or Yakkety-proposed and execute using the proposed version. I wanted to call out and thank Wesley Wiedenmeier for the incredible effort and work he did on making the framework a reality; as well as Scott Moser and Ryan Harper for their guidance and reviews. Next steps include expanding the framework to other back-ends, most urgently KVM and other distributions. Additional we wish to have these tests automatically execute on any merge requests as well. We welcome any collaborations to enable other distributions, new tests, or any other help!
