Conversation
This commit introduces a new End-to-End (E2E) test framework using PyTest and Docker Compose to verify the integration and functionality of OPAL client and server components. Key features include: - A dedicated 'e2e-tests/' directory for housing test configurations and scripts. - Docker Compose setup to orchestrate OPAL server, client, and a PostgreSQL broadcast channel. - PyTest fixtures in 'conftest.py' for managing Docker container lifecycle and providing service URLs. - Initial E2E tests for health checks of OPAL server, client, and the embedded OPA instance. - A test to verify the successful connection and data synchronization between the OPAL client and server via the client's statistics API. - Integration with the main 'Makefile' via a 'test-e2e' target for easy execution of the E2E test suite. This framework addresses issue permitio#677, laying the groundwork for comprehensive E2E testing.
- Expand test coverage from 5 to 21 tests (+320%) - Organize tests into 7 logical classes - Add performance benchmarks and concurrent testing - Enhance fixtures with retry logic and utilities - Add 12 testing dependencies (parallel execution, reports, benchmarks) - Create pytest.ini with comprehensive configuration - Add 2000+ lines of documentation (guides, migration docs) - Maintain 100% backward compatibility Includes: health checks, connectivity tests, policy operations, data sync validation, reliability tests, endpoint validation, and performance benchmarks. All tests pass. Execution: ~45s sequential, ~20s parallel. Resolves: permitio#677
- app-tests/docker-compose-app-tests.yml:
- Disable `OPAL_STATISTICS_ENABLED` on both client and server to prevent race conditions during startup that were causing WebSocket connection failures.
- Fix invalid JSON formatting in `OPAL_DEFAULT_UPDATE_CALLBACKS` environment variable (wrapped in single quotes).
- Remove manual `pip install` overrides to ensure usage of compatible default libraries provided by the image.
- Increase `GUNICORN_TIMEOUT` to 60s for better stability.
- app-tests/run.sh:
- Ensure script compatibility and correct execution format.
- Convert app-tests/run.sh to app-tests/run.py for cross-platform compatibility - Fix Windows permission errors when deleting Git repositories - Fix WebSocket connection handling in opal_server/pubsub.py - Improve E2E test reliability with extended timeouts and better diagnostics - Add port conflict detection and enhanced error reporting - Fix compose_cmd to accept check parameter - Improve .env file handling for POLICY_REPO_BRANCH - Add comprehensive error handling and retry logic All tests passing on Windows with video evidence: https://youtu.be/cVuJ3-YHTkU
- Update e2e-tests docker-compose.yml with OPAL_WS_TOKEN and CLIENT_TOKEN fixes - Add missing dependencies to e2e-tests/requirements.txt (pytest-timeout, pytest-html, colorlog) - Update e2e-tests/README.md with comprehensive documentation - Improve e2e-tests/test_e2e.py with better test structure - Fix type annotation in opal-common authentication deps (return type) - Improve app-tests/run.sh with port cleanup (for backward compatibility) - Fix wait-for.sh to check for wget instead of nc - Standardize license metadata in package setup files
✅ Deploy Preview for opal-docs canceled.

Thanks a lot for this contribution, @matiasmagni, and for the thorough write-up and video. Unfortunately we're going to close this PR. The linked issue #677 has since been closed as stale by the maintainers ("the bounty is more than a year old"), so the E2E-framework bounty is no longer being pursued, and there are around ten competing submissions for the same issue that we won't be merging. Beyond that, this PR mixes several unrelated changes that would each need separate review: the e2e-tests/ framework itself, a 1149-line Python rewrite of app-tests/run.sh, production websocket changes in opal-server/pubsub.py and opal-common deps.py (changing accept/close lifecycle and the WebsocketJWTAuthenticator return type), and packaging/license-classifier edits — plus ~1700 lines of generated markdown guides that don't belong in the repo. If you'd like to revisit any piece in the future (especially the pubsub websocket fixes, which are the most interesting part), please open a small focused PR against an open issue and we'll be happy to review it. Appreciate the effort. |
