Molecule Scenarios

Molecule is being used to test the “frr_status” role. The following section highlights the drivers in service and provides an example playbook showing how the role is leveraged.

Scenario: default

Driver: podman:

Molecule Platform(s)

- name: centos
  hostname: centos
  image: centos/centos:stream8
  registry:
    url: quay.io
  dockerfile: ../../../../.config/molecule/Dockerfile
  pkg_extras: python*-setuptools python*-pyyaml
  volumes:
  - /etc/ci/mirror_info.sh:/etc/ci/mirror_info.sh:ro
  privileged: true
  environment:
    http_proxy: "{{ lookup('env', 'http_proxy') }}"
    https_proxy: "{{ lookup('env', 'https_proxy') }}"
  ulimits:
  - host

Molecule Inventory

hosts:
  all:
    hosts:
      centos:
        ansible_python_interpreter: /usr/bin/python3

Example default playbook

- name: Converge
  hosts: all
  gather_facts: false

  tasks:
  - name: run validation
    include_role:
      name: frr_status
    vars:
      enabled_services:
      - frr

Scenario: faulty

        The frr_status validation didn't properly detect non-operational FRR
        daemons!
