Hi all, I'd like to write t_functional tests covering the setup of different packages working together.
For instance, think about a complete mail server setup, consisting of Postfix, Amavis, ClamAV, Dovecot and more... This is the typical situation I deal with, when I run configuration management software, like NethServer -- I hope it will be a CentOS variant :) -- acting on the top of CentOS.
How to extend t_functional in that case? Should I add a "role" test, such as the existing "lamp"?
I saw "role" tests are executed on the same environment, after other "package" tests. What if a particular role test must be executed on a pristine environment?
I'm worried about - say - OpenLDAP or MySQL: what if they are provisioned by different test cases in a conflicting way?
Thanks in advance,
