Boundary CLI Tests

This directory contains bats tests for testing the Boundary CLI against arbitrary Boundary deployments. The tests are meant to mimic common workflows such as creating resources, and connecting to targets. Currently, the tests rely heavily on generated resources when running Boundary in dev mode. In the future, we hope to remove this dependency and generate all resources through the Boundary CLI from the outset.

The tests are designed to be idempotent.

Getting Started

Dependencies

Running Tests

  1. Start boundary in dev mode
boundary dev

or direct the tests towards an existing install by setting

export BOUNDARY_ADDR=<your_install>
  1. Run the tests
bats -p boundary/

Running Tests Against Other Deployments

You can run this suite against an arbitrary cluster by overriding the following env vars:

DEFAULT_LOGIN=<my_login> \ 
DEFAULT_PASSWORD=<my_password> \
BOUNDARY_ADDR=http://boundary-test-controller-salmon-b70f2710539143b4.elb.us-east-1.amazonaws.com:9200 \
bats boundary/

~> Note that these tests currently expect generated resources to exist. Failure to run against a Boundary deployment that does not have generated resources will result in a lot of test failures. Future work includes breaking thses tests out in a way that makes them not dependant on generated resources.
