Alexander Todorov 30d45a8880 Remove all repo files & install composer-cli from host repos
when testing downstream snapshots this makes sure that
lorax-composer and composer-cli are coming from the host OS.

We also make 100% sure that there are no other repositories inside
the VM other than what has been configured on the host!

Make it possible to override where repo files are copied from by
defining the REPOS_DIR variable. By default the value is
/etc/yum.repos.d

# Integration Tests
lorax uses Cockpit's integration test framework and infrastructure. To do this,
we're checking out
[cockpit-project/bots/](https://github.com/cockpit-project/bots) repository.
It contains links to test
images and tools to manipulate and start virtual machines from them.
Each test is run on a new instance of a virtual machine.
Branch/test scenario matrix is configured in
[testmap.py](https://github.com/cockpit-project/bots/blob/master/task/testmap.py).
## Dependencies
These dependencies are needed on Fedora to run tests locally:
$ sudo dnf install curl expect \
libvirt libvirt-client libvirt-daemon libvirt-python \
python python-libguestfs python-lxml libguestfs-xfs \
python3 libvirt-python3 \
libguestfs-tools qemu qemu-kvm rpm-build rsync xz
## Building a test VM
To build a test VM, run
$ make vm
This downloads a base image from Cockpit's infrastructure. You can control
which image is downloaded with the `TEST_OS` environment variable. Cockpit's
[documentation](https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/blob/master/test/README.md#test-configuration)
lists accepted values. It then creates a new image based on that (a qemu
snapshot) in `test/images`, which contain the current `test/` and `tests/`
directories and
have newly built rpms from the current checkout installed.
To delete the generated image, run
$ make vm-reset
Base images are stored in `bots/images`. Set `TEST_DATA` to override this
directory.
To configure the image with all repositories found on the host system use
$ make vm-local-repos
You may also define `REPOS_DIR` variable to point to another directory
containing yum .repo files. By default the value is `/etc/yum.repos.d`!
This is mostly useful when running tests by hand on a downstream snapshot!
## Running tests
After building a test image, run
$ ./test/check-cli [TESTNAME]
or any of the other `check-*` scripts. To debug a test failure, pass `--sit`.
This will keep the test machine running after the first failure and print an
ssh line to connect to it.
Run `make vm` after changing tests or lorax source to recreate the test
machine. It is usually not necessary to reset the VM.
## Updating images
The `bots/` directory is checked out from Cockpit when `make vm` is first run.
To get the latest images you need to update it manually (in order not to poll
GitHub every time):
$ make -B bots
## GitHub integration
Tests are automatically triggered for every pull request. To disable tests for
a pull request, add the `no-test` label when opening it.
To interact with GitHub from scripts in `bots/`, generate [a
token](https://github.com/settings/tokens) with at least *repo:status*,
*public_repo*, and *read:org* permissions, and put it into
`~/.config/github-token`.
You can retry a failed test with:
$ bots/tests-trigger --repo weldr/lorax <PR> <test>
If no test is given, all failed tests will be retried. Pass `--allow` to
trigger tests on a pull request by an outside contributor.
## Azure setup
To authenticate Ansible (used in tests) with Azure you need to set the following
environment variables:
`AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID`, `AZURE_TENANT`, `AZURE_CLIENT_ID` and `AZURE_SECRET`.
From the left-hand side menu at https://portal.azure.com select
*Resource groups* >> *Click on composer RG*. Above the resulting list of resources
you can see *Subscription ID* -> `AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID`.
From the left-hand side menu at https://portal.azure.com select
*Azure Active Directory* >> *App registrations* >> New registration. Give it a name
and leave the rest with default values. Once the AD application has been created
you can click on its name to view its properties. There you have:
* Directory (tenant) ID -> `AZURE_TENANT`
* Application (client) ID -> `AZURE_CLIENT_ID`
* Certificates & secrets (on the left) >> New client secret -> `AZURE_SECRET`
Next make sure the newly created AD App has access to the storage account.
From the left-hand side menu at https://portal.azure.com select
*Storage accounts* >> *composerredhat* >> *Access control (IAM)* >>
*Role assignments* >> *Add* >> *Add role assignment*. Then make sure to select
- Role == Contributor
- Scope == Resource group (Inherited)
- AD app name (not the user owning the application)
Storage account itself must be of type **StorageV2** so tests can upload blobs
to it!
