Description

  • We should have a more consistent structure, right now we use a github action and git submodules, but it seems it will be possible to use git for everything https://bats-core.readthedocs.io/en/stable/tutorial.html#quick-installation that will allow to have a more hermetic development workflow.
  • We should have a make target , like make e2e-tests or something like that
  • The e2e test grew holistically, with manifest spread on the ./examples/ folder and the e2e tests in the /tests/ folder, manifests for tests will be better into /tests/fixtures or /tests/manifests
  • Remove the tests that depend on others, I added them just for velocity but tests should be independent
  • Document better the tests in the contributor guidelines, in site/content/ ...
  • Consider to split or reorganize better the tests , maybe we didn't get to that point yet, but something we may consider

Contributor guide

Research direction
Research how to use git to manage bats core dependencies for hermetic e2e tests, then propose a reorganization of test manifests into /tests/fixtures and update contributor documentation accordingly.
