hull
Hull is a Go testing framework for writing comprehensive tests on Helm charts.
Once you have defined your suite of tests targeting a specific chart (or multiple charts) using Hull, you can simply run your suite(s) of tests by running go test.
Who needs Hull?
Anyone who maintains a Helm repository or a set of Helm charts that would like to add an automated testing suite that allows them to lint charts and setup unit tests.
For more information on why you might want to use Hull, see the About guide.
Prerequisites
You will be expected to install the following dependencies locally on your machine to successfully run Hull:
- Go (minimal requirement to be able to run
go test) - Yamllint (only required if you use Hull to run YAML linting on manifests produced by
helm templatecommands)
Getting Started
Please see examples/example_test.go for an example of a Go test written for a single chart in this fashion on the chart located in testdata/charts/example-chart. To run the example test, you can simply run:
go test examples/example_test.goUnder the hood, Hull leverages github.com/stretchr/testify/assert for test assertions; it is recommended, but not required, for users to also use this framework when designing Hull tests.
