Test-kitchen + chef-zero

Chef Infra (archive)
1

It looks like the initial support for chef-zero provisioner has been added
to test-kitchen but it’s not working for me:
https://gist.github.com/iroller/8a297dd53438ce02c5e7 (shows chef-zero as a
provisioner, but still trying to use chef-solo on converge)

Is there a way to use Chef-zero with test-kitchen in the same way it works
with Vagrantfile?
Maybe there is some pull request I can clone&merge or a fork where it works?

Whereas the vagrant-chef-zero vagrant plugin can be used with a Vagrantfile
to start chef-zero on the host, I have not found a way to get test-kitchen
to use chef-zero instance on the host. The test-kitchen chef_zero
provisioner seems to install chef-zero on the guest and use it that way.

To get that to work, make sure you do not have a Vagrantfile in the
directory you are running test-kitchen, and under the platform section add
"use_vagrant_provision: false".

Example:

driver_plugin: vagrant

platforms:

  • name: ubuntu-precise
    driver_config:
    box: ubuntu-12.04
    box_url: .box
    provider: virtualbox
    use_vagrant_berkshelf_plugin: true
    use_vagrant_provision: false

provisioner: chef_zero

suites:

  • name: default
    run_list:
    attributes: {}

Did you get it to work with the chef_zero provisioner by setting
'use_vagrant_provision:false'? I didn't need to do that to get it to work.
Simply using 'provisioner:chef_zero' worked for me when I used it a couple
months ago. Are you sure you're using a version of test-kitchen with
chef_zero support. It's only in 1.0.0.beta1, beta2 and beta3. No final
release yet that I see. I just installed directly from master.
Here's what worked for me. Just, bundle install and then kitchen verify.

~ ᐅ grep -v '^#' src/cookbooks/glusterfs/.kitchen.yml

driver_plugin: vagrant
driver_config:
require_chef_omnibus: true
provisioner: chef_zero

platforms:

suites:

  • name: client
    run_list: ["recipe[glusterfs]"]
    attributes: {}
  • name: server
    run_list: ["recipe[glusterfs]", "recipe[glusterfs::server]"]
    attributes: {}

~ ᐅ grep -v '^#' src/cookbooks/glusterfs/Gemfile
source 'https://rubygems.org'

gem 'berkshelf'

gem 'kitchen-vagrant', :git => '

end

You need to create a "./test/integration/data_bags" in the root of the repo
you are running test-kitchen from. This can be a symlink to wherever the
repos exist.

Same things with roles and (I think, but haven't tested),
encrypted_data_bag_secret.

So, say you're repo is "foo", located at "~/repos/foo", and your data bags
are at "~/repos/data_bags", then:

mkdir -p ~/repos/foo/test/integration
ln -s ~/repos/data_bags/ ~/repos/foo/test/integration/data_bags

You should see the data_bags being copied over and uploaded to the
chef-zero instance during a kitchen converge.
