e2e: reject unknown providers by pohly · Pull Request #73402 · kubernetes/kubernetes

pohly · 2019-01-28T13:41:01Z

What type of PR is this?
/kind cleanup

What this PR does / why we need it:

This finishes the work started for 1.13: instead of merely warning
about an unknown value given to --profile, the test/e2e/e2e.test
binary will now print an error and refuse to run.

That was the intended behavior, we just couldn't do it earlier because it broke some users of the binary. At least kubeadm testing is now fixed (kubernetes/test-infra#10913).

Which issue(s) this PR fixes:

Fixes #70200

Special notes for your reviewer:

Does this PR introduce a user-facing change?:

e2e.test now rejects unknown --provider values instead of merely warning about them. An empty provider name is not accepted anymore and was replaced by "skeleton" (= a provider with no special behavior).

test/e2e/framework/test_context.go

Why not default to skeleton here?

Because "" traditionally had the meaning "fallback to 'local' with a specific warning". Selecting "skeleton" would change that.

I don't have any strong opinion either way, but as I don't know the background behind that behavior I don't want to be the one to change it.

so both local and skeleton are null providers here:
https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/blob/b4384e9f828b97c380b93483bea279d2a71d1d00/test/e2e/framework/provider.go#L60-L66

if the previous fallback from "" as provider was local then today setting to skeleton as default should not have a regressive effect (famous last words).

local and skeleton in test-infra/kubetest on the other hand are different.

The question is whether anyone cares about having this log message when --provider is not set:
https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/blob/b4384e9f828b97c380b93483bea279d2a71d1d00/test/e2e/framework/provider.go#L69

If we hard fail we should have a sane default imo.

i'm convinced that log-dump.sh is evil at this point.
needs + 💣

@pohly so "" already does not fallback to "local" if i'm not wrong, as per:
https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/blob/b4384e9f828b97c380b93483bea279d2a71d1d00/test/e2e/framework/provider.go#L68-L71

it effectively falls back to a unnamed null-provider in 1.13 and master, so from what i'm seeing we already modified the old behavior.

@timothysc

If we hard fail we should have a sane default imo.

from my understanding we are not failing but instead we are only showing a warning if --provider is not set (equals "").

@neolit123 right, it currently basically falls back to "skeleton plus warning". Forget what I said about falling back to "local". I think that the current behavior is consistent with <1.13 but haven't checked.

I'm in favor of removing this odd log message and just making skeleton the explicit default. Any objections?

Done. See latest commit in this PR.

test/e2e/framework/test_context.go

Please add a //TODO: when providers are extracted this code should be removed.

I've added a TODO and link to #70194

I've kept the wording a bit more open-ended because I can imagine scenarios where kubernetes/kubernetes itself has no provider-specific code, but still supports building custom testsuites where such code is included. That would allow different cloud providers to share common tests in a neutral location when those tests depend on cloud-provider specific code. Whether that is something that Kubernetes as an organization wants to support I don't know.

timothysc · 2019-01-28T16:51:02Z

test/e2e/framework/test_context.go

I'm not really a fan, but if your long term goal is to extract provider code then I'll be ok with this if there are tracking/umbrealla issues that outline path forwards.

I personally don't have plans in that direction, but it is getting tracked here: #70194

This finishes the work started for 1.13: instead of merely warning about an unknown value given to --profile, the test/e2e/e2e.test binary will now print an error and refuse to run. Fixes: kubernetes#70200

The empty string was the default and then triggered a special warning. There's no good reason for that behavior, so now the special handling for "unset provider" is gone and "skeleton" is the non-empty default for the value.

@pohly
it seems the node-e2e test is failing with:

I0131 07:24:17.735] [8] E0131 07:24:13.285727    1314 test_context.go:420] Unknown provider "". The following providers are known: local skeleton

I0131 07:24:17.735] Test Suite Failed

hm, i though "" should be defaulting to skeleton at this point.

pohly · 2019-01-31T14:39:05Z

@neolit123 thanks for investigating the error, I wasn't sure whether it was just flakiness or caused by the PR.

The --provider parameter now defaults to skeleton when not set. But if it is passed, a valid provider must be specified, so --provider= is currently not okay.

Should --provider= be allowed? Do we then want to proceed with an empty TestContext.Provider string or silently continue as if --provider=skeleton had been used?

neolit123 · 2019-01-31T14:40:53Z

Should --provider= be allowed? Do we then want to proceed with an empty TestContext.Provider string or silently continue as if --provider=skeleton had been used?

my initial reaction is that we should print a message that we are defaulting "" -> skeleton for both these cases:
A) --provider=
B) missing --provider flag

Not accepting --provider= (i.e. setting an empty provider name) broke some test jobs. As suggested in kubernetes#73402 (comment), now --provider= and not passing --provider at all both trigger a message and then continue as if --provider=skeleton had been used.

pohly · 2019-01-31T14:57:34Z

Pushed another commit with that change.

neolit123 · 2019-01-31T15:03:11Z

thanks you.
if CI passes and unless others have objections for the above, we can squash the commits and merge the PR.

@neolit123 do you still want me to squash? I think it is not necessary, each commit makes sense by itself, and I would prefer to merge it like it is now (given that we have clean test results, a lgtm, etc.).
