# End to End Tests
This package contains integration tests. Unlike tests alongside Nomad code,
these tests expect there to already be a functional Nomad cluster accessible
(either on localhost or via the `NOMAD_ADDR` env var).
See [`framework/doc.go`](framework/doc.go) for how to write tests.
The `NOMAD_E2E=1` environment variable must be set for these tests to run.
## Provisioning Test Infrastructure on AWS
The `terraform/` folder has provisioning code to spin up a Nomad cluster on
AWS. You'll need both Terraform and AWS credentials to setup AWS instances on
which e2e tests will run. See the
[README](https://github.com/hashicorp/nomad/blob/main/e2e/terraform/README.md)
for details. The number of servers and clients is configurable, as is the
specific build of Nomad to deploy and the configuration file for each client
and server.
## Provisioning Local Clusters
To run tests against a local cluster, you'll need to make sure the following
environment variables are set:
* `NOMAD_ADDR` should point to one of the Nomad servers
* `CONSUL_HTTP_ADDR` should point to one of the Consul servers
* `NOMAD_E2E=1`
_TODO: the scripts in `./bin` currently work only with Terraform, it would be
nice for us to have a way to deploy Nomad to Vagrant or local clusters._
## Running
After completing the provisioning step above, you can set the client
environment for `NOMAD_ADDR` and run the tests as shown below:
```sh
# from the ./e2e/terraform directory, set your client environment
# if you haven't already
$(terraform output environment)
cd ..
go test -v .
```
If you want to run a specific suite, you can specify the `-suite` flag as
shown below. Only the suite with a matching `Framework.TestSuite.Component`
will be run, and all others will be skipped.
```sh
go test -v -suite=Consul .
```
If you want to run a specific test, you'll need to regex-escape some of the
test's name so that the test runner doesn't skip over framework struct method
names in the full name of the tests:
```sh
go test -v . -run 'TestE2E/Consul/\*consul\.ScriptChecksE2ETest/TestGroup'

## I Want To...
### ...SSH Into One Of The Test Machines
You can use the Terraform output to find the IP address. The keys will
in the `./terraform/keys/` directory.
```sh
ssh -i keys/nomad-e2e-*.pem ubuntu@${EC2_IP_ADDR}
```
Run `terraform output` for IP addresses and details.
### ...Deploy a Cluster of Mixed Nomad Versions
The `variables.tf` file describes the `nomad_sha`, `nomad_version`, and
`nomad_local_binary` variable that can be used for most circumstances. But if
you want to deploy mixed Nomad versions, you can provide a list of versions in
your `terraform.tfvars` file.
For example, if you want to provision 3 servers all using Nomad 0.12.1, and 2
Linux clients using 0.12.1 and 0.12.2, you can use the following variables:
```hcl
# will be used for servers
nomad_version = "0.12.1"
# will override the nomad_version for Linux clients
nomad_version_client_linux = [
"0.12.1",
"0.12.2"
]
```
### ...Deploy Custom Configuration Files
Set the `profile` field to `"custom"` and put the configuration files in
`./terraform/config/custom/` as described in the
[README](https://github.com/hashicorp/nomad/blob/main/e2e/terraform/README.md#Profiles).
### ...Deploy More Than 4 Linux Clients
Use the `"custom"` profile as described above.
### ...Change the Nomad Version After Provisioning
You can update the `nomad_sha` or `nomad_version` variables, or simply rebuild
the binary you have at the `nomad_local_binary` path so that Terraform picks
up the changes. Then run `terraform plan`/`terraform apply` again. This will
update Nomad in place, making the minimum amount of changes necessary.
