The idea is that you don't test the things that ansible has already declared it will do (install pkg, start service), but test the side effects, i.e. is the started service listening on the expected port, is the process of the service daemon running, etc.
- devn0ll 8y agoDo you have more examples? Because: "is the started service listening on the expected port, is the process of the service daemon running" can all be done with straight Ansible as well. I'm just having a hard time understanding the real added value to a goss / ansible combo. Plus: If you do this after installing with ansible. It's basically a check right? Like: Nagios or other monitoring. I'd rather that just use THAT and spend time in creating checks in those systems instead of spending time in goss?
