[chef] Re: Re: Test Kitchen and Outside-in Acceptance Testing?

Thanks for the quick replies!

I just noticed that I'm actually looking for something suitable to test my infrastructure (e.g. represented by a couple of vagrant VMs interacting with each other) rather than individual cookbooks.

@Stephen: looking forward to see more of it. My first thought on Leibniz was a bit different though given that we are working in a kitchen, aren't we?

@Mike: but this runs on the node, doesn't it?

@Ranjib: do you have an example where you are using serverspec? It sounds like you spin up a VM, then run your serverspec suite against it from the outside, and tear it down again. Is that so?

you should be able to integrate busser with cucumber, but i think invoking test-kitchen directly from step definition will be painful, given its a full blown harness & provisioning system. Im using mostly minitest or serverspec with lxc

Hey guys,

I'm not up-to-date with the latest test-kitchen development - can I run Cucumber features for testing from the outside with test-kitchen?

If not, what else are you using for this kind of testing?

Cheers,
