Running Tests

This role uses Test Kitchen and Inspec for testing instead of Molecule, making it easier to support multiple testing methods (docker and exec) for various operating systems.

There are 2 testing suites:

• The default suite tests against Linux systems using bash as the main shell. It uses docker to run tests on different versions of ubuntu.
• The zsh suite tests on MacOS using zsh as the main shell. It uses the exec driver to run commands on the current host and is meant for testing on CI runners, like in GitHub Actions.

To run tests, use: bundle exec poetry run kitchen test <suite name>.
