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

Reproducible install

uv tool install posit-vip resolves the newest versions each release allows. To install the exact set a release was tested against, pass that release's constraints file (attached to every GitHub release as constraints-<version>.txt):

uv tool install posit-vip \
  -c https://github.com/posit-dev/vip/releases/download/vX.Y.Z/constraints-X.Y.Z.txt

Replace X.Y.Z with the release you are installing (see the releases page).

For a fully pinned, batteries-included environment, use the container image, which installs from the committed uv.lock:

docker run --rm -v "$PWD/vip.toml:/app/vip.toml" ghcr.io/posit-dev/vip:latest

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.

CLI commands

Command Description
vip verify Run verification tests against a Posit Team deployment
vip status Quick health check for each configured product
vip cleanup Delete VIP _vip_test content from Connect
vip report Render the HTML report from test results (requires Quarto CLI)
vip auth Authentication tools (e.g. mint Connect API keys)
vip version Print the vip version and the minimum supported Posit Team version
vip --version Print the installed vip version

Run vip --help or vip <command> --help for full usage details.
