This commit creates a new Gradle plugin to provide a separate task name
and source set for running YAML based REST tests. The only project
converted to use the new plugin in this PR is distribution/archives/integ-test-zip.
For which the testing has been moved to :rest-api-spec since it makes the most
sense and it avoids a small but awkward change to the distribution plugin.
The remaining cases in modules, plugins, and x-pack will be handled in followups.
This plugin is distinctly different from the plugin introduced in #55896 since
the YAML REST tests are intended to be black box tests over HTTP. As such they
should not (by default) have access to the classpath for that which they are testing.
The YAML based REST tests will be moved to separate source sets (yamlRestTest).
The which source is the target for the test resources is dependent on if this
new plugin is applied. If it is not applied, it will default to the test source
set.
Further, this introduces a breaking change for plugin developers that
use the YAML testing framework. They will now need to either use the new source set
and matching task, or configure the rest resources to use the old "test" source set that
matches the old integTest task. (The former should be preferred).
As part of this change (which is also breaking for plugin developers) the
rest resources plugin has been removed from the build plugin and now requires
either explicit application or application via the new YAML REST test plugin.
Plugin developers should be able to fix the breaking changes to the YAML tests
by adding apply plugin: 'elasticsearch.yaml-rest-test' and moving the YAML tests
under a yamlRestTest folder (instead of test)
testclusters detect from settings that security is enabled
if a user is not specified using the DSL introduced in this PR, a default one is created
the appropriate wait conditions are used authenticating with the first user defined in the DSL ( or the default user ).
an example DSL to create a user is user username:"test_user" password:"x-pack-test-password" role: "superuser" all keys are optional and default to the values shown in this example
Today, a setting can declare that its validity depends on the values of other
related settings. However, the validity of a setting is not always checked
against the correct values of its dependent settings because those settings'
correct values may not be available when the validator runs.
This commit separates the validation of a settings updates into two phases,
with separate methods on the `Setting.Validator` interface. In the first phase
the setting's validity is checked in isolation, and in the second phase it is
checked again against the values of its related settings. Most settings only
use the first phase, and only the few settings with dependencies make use of
the second phase.
Add tests for build-tools to make sure example plugins build stand-alone using it.
This will catch issues such as referencing files from the buildSrc directly, breaking external uses of build-tools.
This pull request replaces the jvm-example plugin (from the jvm/site plugins era) by two new plugins: a custom-settings that shows how to register and use custom settings (including secured settings) in a plugin, and rest-handler plugin that shows how to register a rest handler.
The two plugins now reside in the plugins/examples project. They can serve as sample plugins for users, a special attention has been put on documentation. The packaging tests have been adapted to use the custom-settings plugin.
