Previously we were using two different criteria to decide where to run a test. The main `go-test` job would skip Vault tests based on the presence of the `vault` binary, but the `test-connect-ca-providers` job would run tests based on the name. This led to a scenario where a test may never run in CI. To fix this problem I added a name check to the function we use to skip the test. This should ensure that any test that requires vault is named correctly to be run as part of the `test-connect-ca-providers` job. At the same time I relaxed the regex we use. I verified this runs the same tests using `go test --list Vault`. I made this change because a bunch of tests in `agent/connect/ca` used `Vault` in the name, without the underscores. Instead of changing a bunch of test names, this seemed easier. With this approach, the worst case is that we run a few extra tests in the `test-connect-ca-providers` job, which doesn't seem like a problem.
Consul
Consul is a distributed, highly available, and data center aware solution to connect and configure applications across dynamic, distributed infrastructure.
- Website: https://www.consul.io
- Tutorials: HashiCorp Learn
- Forum: Discuss
Consul provides several key features:
-
Multi-Datacenter - Consul is built to be datacenter aware, and can support any number of regions without complex configuration.
-
Service Mesh/Service Segmentation - Consul Connect enables secure service-to-service communication with automatic TLS encryption and identity-based authorization. Applications can use sidecar proxies in a service mesh configuration to establish TLS connections for inbound and outbound connections without being aware of Connect at all.
-
Service Discovery - Consul makes it simple for services to register themselves and to discover other services via a DNS or HTTP interface. External services such as SaaS providers can be registered as well.
-
Health Checking - Health Checking enables Consul to quickly alert operators about any issues in a cluster. The integration with service discovery prevents routing traffic to unhealthy hosts and enables service level circuit breakers.
-
Key/Value Storage - A flexible key/value store enables storing dynamic configuration, feature flagging, coordination, leader election and more. The simple HTTP API makes it easy to use anywhere.
Consul runs on Linux, macOS, FreeBSD, Solaris, and Windows and includes an optional browser based UI. A commercial version called Consul Enterprise is also available.
Please note: We take Consul's security and our users' trust very seriously. If you believe you have found a security issue in Consul, please responsibly disclose by contacting us at security@hashicorp.com.
