This is additional work for QENG-3888 in ci-job-configs. We were using static
nodesets within specs/acceptance/nodesets before and this commit will instead use beaker-hostgenerator
to get the specified platform .yml configurations.
Prior to this commit, strings had a hostfile that was using an old
format that is no longer compatible with beaker which was causing
the acceptance tests to fail.
Update the hostfile so that it works.
Prior to this commit, the acceptance tests were trying to install
strings as a module and failing due to the fact that strings has
transition to a gem and does not have metadata. Update the tests
so that they install strings as a gem instead.
Prior to this commit, the acceptance tests were using the
rspec-html-matchers gem which we had removed because it does not
work with rspec 3.
In order to make the acceptance tests compatible with this change,
use string matching to check the HTML output instead and remove
the dependency on that gem.
In order to allow for multiple platforms on Jenkins, use the
platform environment variable in the rake task for acceptance tests
to determine which platform to run on.
In order to help ensure that the strings module is not broken
during development, add a full system integration test which can
run at regular intervals to ensure that the module is working as
expected.
The test installs the string module as well as a test module which
contains the different types of puppet and ruby code that the strings
module can document. It then runs strings and ensures that the HTML
generated is correct.
Additionally, make some changes to the Gemfile to allow strings to
be run as a gem even if it isn't installed in the modulepath. Also
make a few changes to the unit tests to make them compatible with
the version of rspec required by Beaker.
