Michael Gaffney c317901db4 feat(credential): add credential type to credential library on create
This change adds a credential type attribute to credential library and
allows it to be set when creating a credential library.

Specifying the type of credential returned from a library allows for new
features and additional error checking to be added over time. A
User Password credential type and an Unspecified credential type are
included with the expectation that additional credential types will be
added in the future. This change also adds the credential type attribute
to existing credential libraries and sets it to Unspecified.

Known Limitations:

- Credential type is only supported on the repository create method.
  Support for the other CRUD methods will be added in the future.

SQL Tests

This test suite is used to test behavior of the database logic. In particular the data warehouse implementation is completely in sql via plpgsql, functions, and triggers. This test suite is also implemented directly in sql.

Organization

  • initdb.d: contains init scripts/sql that is run on the test database when it starts. It ensures the sql migrations are run and creates test helper functions.
  • tests: contains the tests. Each file can contain only a single test that runs in a transaction so it can rollback.

The tests leverage the pgTap postgres extension to make assertions and provide more readable test output.

Usage

To run the test run make or make test. This will:

  • Start a docker postgres container and initialize it.
  • Start a docker pgtap container to execute the tests.

When writing new tests it can be faster to keep the database up and just re-run the tests. This can be done by running:

# starts database docker image in the background
make database-up

# runs the tests, call this multiple times while implementing new tests.
make run-tests

# to clean up
make clean

You can also run individual tests:

# run a single test file
make TEST=tests/setup/wtt_load.sql

# run a single test file with the database already created.
make run-tests TEST=tests/setup/wtt_load.sql

# run a directory of tests
make TEST=tests/setup/*.sql

You can pass through options to pg_prove. See the docs for available options, i.e:

# run tests in parallel with verbose output
make PROVE_OPTS='-j9 -v'

By default the database docker container does not use a host port. This can be changed using an environment variable:

$ export SQL_TEST_DB_PORT=5433
$ make database-up
$ make run-tests

Different versions of postgres can easily be tested:

make PG_DOCKER_TAG=latest
make PG_DOCKER_TAG=13-alpine
make PG_DOCKER_TAG=12-alpine
make PG_DOCKER_TAG=11-alpine
