* Remove usage of deprecated testCompile configuration
* Replace testCompile usage by testImplementation
* Make testImplementation non transitive by default (as we did for testCompile)
* Update CONTRIBUTING about using testImplementation for test dependencies
* Fail on testCompile configuration usage
Anonymous roles resolution and user role deduplication are now performed during authentication instead of authorization. The change ensures:
* If anonymous access is enabled, user will be able to see the anonymous roles added in the roles field in the /_security/_authenticate response.
* Any duplication in user roles are removed and will not show in the above authenticate response.
* In any other case, the response is unchanged.
It also introduces a behaviour change: the anonymous role resolution is now authentication node specific, previously it was authorization node specific. Details can be found at #47195 (comment)
We believe there's no longer a need to be able to disable basic-license
features completely using the "xpack.*.enabled" settings. If users don't
want to use those features, they simply don't need to use them. Having
such features always available lets us build more complex features that
assume basic-license features are present.
This commit deprecates settings of the form "xpack.*.enabled" for
basic-license features, excluding "security", which is a special case.
It also removes deprecated settings from integration tests and unit
tests where they're not directly relevant; e.g. monitoring and ILM are
no longer disabled in many integration tests.
Backport of #48849. Update `.editorconfig` to make the Java settings the
default for all files, and then apply a 2-space indent to all `*.gradle`
files. Then reformat all the files.
* Restrict which tasks can use testclusters
This PR fixes a problem between the interaction of test-clusters and
build cache.
Before this any task could have used a cluster without tracking it as
input.
With this change a new interface is introduced to track the tasks that
can use clusters and we do consider the cluster as input for all of
them.
Test clusters currently has its own set of logic for dealing with
finding different versions of Elasticsearch, downloading them, and
extracting them. This commit converts testclusters to use the
DistributionDownloadPlugin.
* TestClusters: Convert the security plugin
This PR moves security tests to use TestClusters.
The TLS test required support in testclusters itself, so the correct
wait condition is configgured based on the cluster settings.
* PR review
This performs a simple restart test to move a basic licensed
cluster from no security (the default) to security & transport TLS
enabled.
