Ohai Chefs,
I'm happy to announce that I just released ChefSpec v3.1.0. The
beta has been out for 2 weeks and users have reported very little
problems. I made a few tiny documentation updates and improved the
DSL for interacting with the Chef Server.
Changelog,
Changeset
You can install ChefSpec 3.1.0 by running:
gem install chefspec --version 3.1.0
Or by updating the version in your Gemfile:
gem 'chefspec', '~> 3.1.0'
ChefSpec v3.1.0 builds upon the 3.0.0 series with amazing new
features like:
- Converging against a "real" Chef Server (Chef Zero) (no need to
use Chef Solo)
- Resource reporting! It's finally here!
Although still in primitive stages, ChefSpec v3.1.0 performs recipe
analysis and generates a resource coverage report - perfect for
testing you've hit all logic branches in your recipes
- (Advanced) Cacheable runner courtesy of Juri Timošin for incredibly
faster tests if you don't need stubbing
- Support for Librarian courtesy of Mathias Lafeldt
Things that are likely to break:
- The deprecations module is no longer included by default. If
you have not yet upgraded from ChefSpec v2.x, you can manually
include the module by adding
require
'chefspec/deprecations' to the top of your spec_helper.
- The API for creating a node changed slightly between the last
beta and this final release.
There are some really cool nerdy things happening under the
hood, so I encourage you to look at the full diff :).
Look for an upcoming blog series on sethvargo.com about resource
reporting (coverage) and chef server mode.
