Cross-cloud integration testing #2213

Open grampelberg opened 5 years ago

grampelberg commented 5 years ago

What problem are you trying to solve?

The subtle differences between cloud providers are starting to create a host of issues. See #2174, #2173, #1648 for examples. These are hard to replicate, debug and understand what might impact users after a release.

How should the problem be solved?

Tooling to create clusters on the cloud providers with common configuration.
Default RBAC, PSP and k8s components (such as helm).
Installation of specific Linkerd versions.
Target testing clusters, run the integration tests.
Allow for long running tests (longer than 24 hours).
Run tests in parallel on each provider.

Looks like #2516 will supersede this one.

grampelberg commented 5 years ago

@alpeb I think they're separate? #2516 is for manual testing, this is for building the tooling and automating the testing. It looks like the scope of this is larger as well, as it looks at doing soak tests with multiple workloads.

Ok gotcha :+1:

Hey there! GSoC hopeful here. I'm interested in this project and have a proposal in the works for it.

@Pac23 CI is currently in flux as we're moving to github actions right now. Why don't you jump on slack? I can come up with some interesting issues for you with a little chat =)
