Supermarket Belongs to the Community

Supermarket belongs to the community. While Chef has the responsibility to keep it running and be stewards of its functionality, what it does and how it works is driven by the community. The chef/supermarket repository will continue to be where development of the Supermarket application takes place. Come be part of shaping the direction of Supermarket by opening issues and pull requests or by joining us on the Chef Mailing List.

Local Testing

For local testing you can use vagrant or docker to run tests locally. You will have to install VirtualBox and Vagrant or docker on your system. See Vagrant Downloads for a vagrant or Docker Downloads package suitable for your system. For all our tests we use test-kitchen. If you are not familiar with test-kitchen please have a look at their guide.

# Install dependencies
gem install bundler
bundle install

# Do lint checks
bundle exec rake lint

# fast test on one machine
bundle exec kitchen test default-ubuntu-1204

# test on all machines
bundle exec kitchen test

# for development
bundle exec kitchen create default-ubuntu-1204
bundle exec kitchen converge default-ubuntu-1204
bundle exec kitchen verify default-ubuntu-1204
