This is an introduction to opsite and perceptor for QA engineers.

The perceptor project is a distributed system for responding to events residing in particular cloud native infrastructures.

The Perceivers are the cloud native extension points to the overall perceptor project, handling intercepting of events + responding to those events.

These opensource projects come together to make the opsite product.

The opsite-connector product

The opsite product hardens the perceptor ecosystem into a 'downstream' artifact which blackduck officially supports, with specific customizations that make it easy for us to gaurantee performance and security specifications around.

Getting started

NOTE: The first section is about learning kubernetes/openshift and understanding the upstream components of opsite are not valuable to downstream testing.

Once you understand the basics, skip to the next section, and focus on 'real QA' :).

First, understand the upstream and core components

The easiest way to get started is to use minikube, or minishift, to install the upstream perceptor components.

  • First install minishift or minikube.
  • git clone our installation tool, perceptor-protoform, and run a recipe in the install/ directory.
  • If you have issues file them in github.

It should be as simple as cloning perceptor-protoform, installing minishift or minikube, and then running the install.sh scripts in the install/ directory from protofrom (either openshijft or kubernetes).

Now, start testing downstream !

Minishift OCP compatibility test:

export MINISHIFT_USERNAME='<RED_HAT_USERNAME>'
export MINISHIFT_PASSWORD='<RED_HAT_PASSWORD>'

  • Now, you can start minishift start --ocp-tag=3.10.14

  • Clone the connector, and run git checkout release-2.0.x.

  • minishift ssh, then sudo su... At which point you can 'oc login', into localhost. Use credentials 'admin'/'admin'. Then it should allow you (since your root) to do:

/var/lib/minishift/bin/oc adm policy add-cluster-role-to-user cluster-admin developer

Which effectively makes your developer account an administrative one.

  • Run the installer: ./install.sh --hub-host 35.202.36.25 --hub-user sysadmin --hub-password blackduck --hub-port 443 --hub-max-concurrent-scans 2 -M -v 2.0.2-RC --pcp-namespace jasonia.
