This creates a simplified helper for temporary directories and files.
All path names are prefixed with the name of the current test.
All files and directories are stored either in /tmp/consul-test
or /tmp if the former could not be created.
Using the system temp dir breaks some tests on macOS where the unix
socket path becomes too long.
macOS displays a firewall warning dialog when an unsigned
application is trying to bind to a non-loopback address.
This patch updates some test configurations to ensure binding
to a loopback address where possible to suppress these warnings.
Refactor tests that use testutil.WaitForResult to use retry.
Since this requires refactoring the test functions in general this patch
also shows the use of the github.com/pascaldekloe/goe/verify library
which provides a good mechanism for comparing nested data structures.
Instead of just converting the tests from testutil.WaitForResult to
retry the tests that performing a nested comparison of data structures
are converted to the verify library at the same time.
This commit adds several command-line and config options that facilitate
host discovery through Google Compute Engine (GCE), much like the
recently added EC2 host discovery options. This should assist with
bootstrapping and joining servers within GCE when non-static addresses
are used, such as when using managed instance groups.
Documentation has also been added. It should be noted that if running
from within a GCE instance, the only option that should be necessary is
-retry-join-gce-tag-value.
