In Puppet 2.6.x there is a bug where a function may be incorrectly detected as
an rvalue when it is not, or not detected when it is. This means that in tests
the correct syntax for calling a function will be rejected. This disables
those tests on 2.6.x, as there is no straightforward way to write them to be
compatible with both 2.6.x and newer versions of Puppet.
The test_helper code in Puppet now resets function state between each test.
This patch fixes two spec files where the function was not actually loaded in
the tests, causing them to fail.
A bug fix in Puppet exposed that several tests were using rvalue functions
incorrectly (this was not properly checked by puppet before). This fixes those
tests.
Without this patch applied the stdlib module has load-order issues with mocha
and rspec-puppet. The root cause has yet to be determined, but we've narrowed
it down to this description:
"If any rspec-puppet example groups run before parser function example groups
and the parser function example groups use mock() then you'll get this error:"
You can exercise this explicitly with:
rspec -fd spec/unit/puppet/{provider,type,parser}
This will ensure rspec runs all of the provider and type spec tests, which are
rspec-puppet ones, before the parser function specs are run. I should also
note we empted out the test in the file_line provider to be nothing except an
empty describe block and this was still sufficient to trigger the load order
error described here.

This patch switches the spec tests for the get_module_path function to
use mock objects. The underlying Puppet::Module.find method has
reasonable test coverage inside of Puppet core so we might as well break
the tight dependency while we're fixing up the specs to use the new
parser scope.
The behavior of the parser function itself should still have complete
coverage even though the tests have switched to mock the implementation
inside of Puppet.
This patch is the same approach as the one that want into 2.2.x. It
covers the functions in 2.3.x that do not exist in 2.2.x.
Without this patch all of the spec tests for parser functions in stdlib
would instantiate their own scope instances. This is a problem because
the standard library is tightly coupled with the internal behavior of
Puppet. Tight coupling like this creates failures when we change the
internal behavior of Puppet. This is exactly what happened recently
when we changed the method signature for the initializer of
Puppet::Parser::Scope instances.
This patch fixes the problem by creating scope instances using the
puppet labs spec helper. The specific method that provides scope
instances in Puppet-version-independent way is something like this:
let(:scope) { PuppetlabsSpec::PuppetInternals.scope }
This patch simply implements this across the board.
The module PuppetlabsSpec::PuppetSeams has been renamed in the
puppetlabs_spec_helper gem to PuppetlabsSpec::PuppetInternals.
The method to obtain a scope object has also changed slightly. Without
this patch the spec tests will fail because the stdlib module is not
aligned with the spec helper gem. This patch fixes the problem by
matching up messages with their receivers in the spec helper library.

This time around I actually know why I'm doing this thanks to the
reminder from Nick Lewis.
Ruby will replace itself in memory with the executable listed in the
interpreter line if the string "ruby" is not in there.
Since /usr/bin/env rspec doesn't contain the substring "ruby", you can't
actually run ruby -W1 or whatever on the file.
This patch fixes the problem by making sure "ruby" is present,
preventing ruby from replacing itself in memory.
This patch back ports the file from the master branch. The spec tests
fail without this patch applied. This should make it easier to setup
Puppet settings using the puppet_spec_helper project.
* fix/2.3.x/file_line_ensure:
Make file_line default to ensure => present
Memoize file_line spec instance variables
Fix spec tests using the new spec_helper
The examples in the file_line resource documentation state the following
resource should work:
file_line { 'sudo_rule':
path => '/etc/sudoers',
line => '%sudo ALL=(ALL) ALL',
}
Without this patch the example does not work because ensure is not set
to present.
This patch fixes the problem by setting the default value of ensure to
present.
This patch back ports the file from the master branch. The spec tests
fail without this patch applied. This should make it easier to setup
Puppet settings using the puppet_spec_helper project.
When using MRI 1.9.x the stdlib spec helper does not invoke because
Puppet.settings.private_methods returns symbols instead of strings.
This is a problem because we need to set default configuration settings
like Puppet[:vardir] when using the compiler.
This patch fixes the issue by simply checking the Puppet version. This
seems a better choice than rescuing NoMethodError since the method might
be renamed or removed in the future.
Without this patch the spec_helper sends a message named
initialize_everything_for_tests to Puppet.settings. This is a problem
because Puppet 2.6.x does not have this method, only Puppet 2.7.x and
Puppet master have this method at this time and we're getting false
positive test failures.
This patch fixes the problem by looking before we leap. We test if the
private method exists before calling it. This works with Ruby 1.8.5 and
onwards and Puppet 2.6, 2.7 and master.
This should fix all of the failures I've caused in Jenkins today.
Without this patch the specified behavior of strings that are numeric
only and zero padded is unclear and untested in the spec tests. This is
a problem because it's not clear that range('00', '10') will actually
return [ "0", "1", ..., "10" ] instead of [ "00", "01", ..., "10" ]
This patch addresses the issue by providing explicit test coverage. If
the string conversion behavior of puppet changes, this test will begin
to fail.
Puppet apply does not add the stdlib lib directory to the $LOAD_PATH.
This is a problem because the puppet_vardir fact requires the
puppet_settings library to be available for the `with_puppet` utility
method.
Without this patch, puppet apply will result in the following error:
$ puppet apply --modulepath=/vagrant/modules -e 'notice $puppet_vardir'
warning: Could not load fact file stdlib/lib/facter/puppet_vardir.rb: no such file to load -- facter/util/puppet_settings
notice: Scope(Class[main]):
notice: Finished catalog run in 0.01 seconds
With this patch applied, puppet apply works as expected:
$ puppet apply --modulepath=/vagrant/modules.pe -e 'notice $puppet_vardir'
notice: Scope(Class[main]): /Users/jeff/.puppet/var
notice: Finished catalog run in 0.01 seconds
This patch defensively tries to load facter/util/puppet_settings. If it cannot
load it, it falls back to trying to explicitly locate and load the library.
Once puppet is fixed such that a modules lib directory is truly in the
$LOAD_PATH, the fall back implementation will no longer be exercised since the
LoadError should not be raised.
Without this patch, the previous change set to the
validate_absolute_path() parser function contains Puppet 2.6
incompatible changes. stdlib 2.x is compatible with Puppet 2.6. These
changes are a problem because we cannot introduce backwards incompatible
changes in a minor release.
This patch fixes the problem by back porting the implementation of the
`Puppet::Util.absolute_path?` from 2.7.x to the function block itself.
The function block tests to see if `Puppet::Util.absolute_path?` will
respond and if not, falls back to the inline back ported implementation.
The spec tests have been updated to simulate the behavior of Puppet 2.6
even when running with Puppet 2.7.
