The e2e framework instantiates clients for Nomad/Consul but the
provisioning of the actual Nomad cluster is left to Terraform. The
Terraform provisioning process uses `remote-exec` to deploy specific
versions of Nomad so that we don't have to bake an AMI every time we
want to test a new version. But Terraform treats the resulting
instances as immutable, so we can't use the same tooling to update the
version of Nomad in-place. This is a prerequisite for upgrade testing.
This changeset extends the e2e framework to provide the option of
deploying Nomad (and, in the future, Consul/Vault) with specific
versions to running infrastructure. This initial implementation is
focused on deploying to a single cluster via `ssh` (because that's our
current need), but provides interfaces to hook the test run at the
start of the run, the start of each suite, or the start of a given
test case.
Terraform work includes:
* provides Terraform output that written to JSON used by the framework
to configure provisioning via `terraform output provisioning`.
* provides Terraform output that can be used by test operators to
configure their shell via `$(terraform output environment)`
* drops `remote-exec` provisioning steps from Terraform
* makes changes to the deployment scripts to ensure they can be run
multiple times w/ different versions against the same host.
Adds Windows targets to the client/allocs metrics tests. Removes the
`allocstats` test, which covers less than these tests and is now
redundant.
Adds a firewall rule to our Windows instances so that the prometheus
server can scrape the Nomad HTTP API for metrics.
Refactor the metrics end-to-end tests so they can be run with our e2e
test framework. Runs fabio/prometheus and a collection of jobs that
will cause metrics to be measured. We then query Prometheus to ensure
we're publishing those allocation metrics and some metrics from the
clients as well.
Includes adding a placeholder for running the same tests on Windows.
The e2e test code is absolutely hideous and leaks processes and files
on disk. NomadAgent seems useful, but the clientstate e2e tests are very
messy and slow. The last test "Corrupt" is probably the most useful as
it explicitly corrupts the state file whereas the other tests attempt to
reproduce steps thought to cause corruption in earlier releases of
Nomad.
