VIP - Verified Installation of Posit
An open-source, extensible test suite that validates Posit Team deployments are installed correctly and functioning properly.
VIP uses BDD-style tests (pytest-bdd + Playwright) to verify Connect, Workbench, and Package Manager deployments. Results can be viewed from the command-line output or compiled into an HTML report.
Documentation: https://posit-dev.github.io/vip/
Quick start
uv tool install posit-vip
vip install
vip verify --connect-url https://connect.example.com --interactive-auth
On a headless server (no display), use --headless-auth instead:
vip verify --config vip.toml --headless-auth
Run a specific test by name:
vip verify --connect-url https://connect.example.com --filter test_login
With a configuration file:
cp vip.toml.example vip.toml # edit with your deployment details
vip verify --config vip.toml
Uninstalling
To reverse what vip install (or just setup) did:
vip uninstall # dry run; prints the full plan including any sudo command
vip uninstall --yes # remove Playwright cache + manifest; prints the sudo command
# for any system packages so you can remove them yourself
uv tool uninstall posit-vip # remove vip itself once you're done
vip uninstall only removes packages and files that vip install recorded
in .vip-install.json; anything that was already on your machine before
running vip install is left alone.
If a Connect URL is configured (in vip.toml or via --connect-url),
vip uninstall chains vip cleanup first to remove _vip_test-tagged
content from Connect.
