theresa

Infrastructure validation made easy

Introduction

theresa offers a unified language for exec(3)-centric infrastracture tests. Tests using theresa are just command lines. You can start small and easy.

Warning

There's no implementation yet, so far I'm just collecting input from prospective users and fleshing out the interface.

Things and their Attributes

Each theresa invocation asserts one or more truths about a single "thing":

• blockdev
• chardev
• dir
• file
• group
• mountpoint
• netif
• pipe
• symlink
• user

Examples

$ theresa dir /var/empty --empty --owned-by root --in-group wheel --mode 755
FAIL: dir /var/empty is in group root
$ theresa mountpoint / --for zpool/ROOT/default --type zfs --options rw,noatime,nfsv4acls
$ theresa symlink /etc/termcap --to /usr/share/misc/termcap --owned-by root --in-group wheel --mode 755
$ theresa user postgres --in-group postgres --at-home-in /var/db/postgres
FAIL: user postgres is at home in /var/lib/postgresql
