Our tooling cannot handle very long failure messages well: - when unfolding a test in the spyglass UI, it fills the entire screen - failure correlation for http://go.k8s.io/triage has resource constraints We cannot enforce that all tests only produce short failure messages and even if we could, depending on the test failure, including more information may be useful to understand it. To achieve both goals (summary for correlation and overview, all details available when digging deeper), too longer failure messages now get truncated, with the full message guaranteed to be captured in the test output. "Too long" is arbitrarily chosen to be similar to the gomega.MaxLength because that has been a limit for failure message size in the past.
test/e2e
This is home to e2e tests used for presubmit, periodic, and postsubmit jobs.
Some of these jobs are merge-blocking, some are release-blocking.
e2e test ownership
All e2e tests must adhere to the following policies:
- the test must be owned by one and only one SIG
- the test must live in/underneath a sig-owned package matching pattern:
test/e2e/[{subpath}/]{sig}/..., e.g.test/e2e/auth- all tests owned by sig-authtest/e2e/common/storage- all testscommonto cluster-level and node-level e2e tests, owned by sig-nodetest/e2e/upgrade/apps- all tests used inupgradetesting, owned by sig-apps
- each sig-owned package should have an OWNERS file defining relevant approvers and labels for the owning sig, e.g.
# test/e2e/node/OWNERS
# See the OWNERS docs at https://go.k8s.io/owners
approvers:
- alice
- bob
- cynthia
emeritus_approvers:
- dave
reviewers:
- sig-node-reviewers
labels:
- sig/node
- packages that use
{subpath}should have animports.gofile importing sig-owned packages (for ginkgo's benefit), e.g.
// test/e2e/common/imports.go
package common
import (
// ensure these packages are scanned by ginkgo for e2e tests
_ "k8s.io/kubernetes/test/e2e/common/network"
_ "k8s.io/kubernetes/test/e2e/common/node"
_ "k8s.io/kubernetes/test/e2e/common/storage"
)
- test ownership must be declared via a top-level SIGDescribe call defined in the sig-owned package, e.g.
// test/e2e/lifecycle/framework.go
package lifecycle
import "github.com/onsi/ginkgo"
// SIGDescribe annotates the test with the SIG label.
func SIGDescribe(text string, body func()) bool {
return ginkgo.Describe("[sig-cluster-lifecycle] "+text, body)
}
// test/e2e/lifecycle/bootstrap/bootstrap_signer.go
package bootstrap
import (
"github.com/onsi/ginkgo"
"k8s.io/kubernetes/test/e2e/lifecycle"
)
var _ = lifecycle.SIGDescribe("[Feature:BootstrapTokens]", func() {
/* ... */
ginkgo.It("should sign the new added bootstrap tokens", func() {
/* ... */
})
/* etc */
})
These polices are enforced:
- via the merge-blocking presubmit job
pull-kubernetes-verify - which ends up running
hack/verify-e2e-test-ownership.sh - which can also be run via
make verify WHAT=e2e-test-ownership
