Kubernetes test support with KIND for pytest

pytest-kind

Test your Python Kubernetes app/operator end-to-end with kind and pytest.

pytest-kind is a plugin for pytest which provides the kind_cluster fixture. The fixture will install kind, create a cluster, and provide convenience functionality such as port forwarding.

Usage

Install pytest-kind via pip or via poetry, e.g.:

poetry add --dev pytest-kind

Write your pytest functions and use the provided kind_cluster fixture, e.g.:

def test_kubernetes_version(kind_cluster):
    assert kind_cluster.api.version == ('1', '15')

To load your custom Docker image and apply deployment manifests:

import requests
from pykube import Pod

def test_myapp(kind_cluster):
    kind_cluster.load_docker_image("myapp")
    kind_cluster.kubectl("apply", "-f", "deployment.yaml")
    kind_cluster.kubectl("rollout", "status", "deployment/myapp")

    # using Pykube to query pods
    for pod in Pod.objects(kind_cluster.api).filter(selector="app=myapp"):
        assert "Sucessfully started" in pod.logs()

    with kind_cluster.port_forward("service/myapp", 80) as port:
        r = requests.get(f"http://localhost:{port}/hello/world")
        r.raise_for_status()
        assert r.text == "Hello world!"

See the examples directory for sample projects.

Pytest Options

The kind cluster name can be set via the --cluster-name CLI option.

The kind cluster is deleted after each pytest session, you can keep the cluster by passing --keep-cluster to pytest.
