do not install dependencies of minitest-chef-handler gem #72

Closed fsimmend closed 8 years ago

fsimmend commented 9 years ago

As long as the gem does not gets rereleased, we should install it without dependencies adding options '--ignore-dependencies to the chef_gem resource.

Is this to keep it from installing a newer chef/ohai? Because I think that is solved by chef/minitest-chef-handler#85 which is in v1.1.0 of minitest-chef-handler

fsimmend commented 9 years ago

from my side we can close this as we no longer use this technique to run tests. But currently the handler breaks with chef 12.4.0

b-dean commented 9 years ago

You can make the handler work if you change what version of minitest-chef-handler it uses. You can do this in your .kitchen.yml (I often have this sort of thing in the platform).

platforms:
- name: ubuntu-12.04
  attributes:
    minitest:
      chef_handler_gem_version: 1.1.0

Someone should make a pull request to update the default for this attribute in https://github.com/btm/minitest-handler-cookbook/blob/668c667f38a17ed243771744a8d8f1d81818fcae/attributes/default.rb#L5
