How to run tests

To run them, use:

TFE_TOKEN=<token> TFE_HOSTNAME=<hostname> TF_ACC=1 go test  ./internal/cloud/e2e/... -ldflags "-X \"github.com/hashicorp/terraform/version.Prerelease=<PRE-RELEASE>\""

Required flags

  • TF_ACC=1. This variable is used as part of terraform for tests that make external network calls. This is needed to run these tests. Without it, the tests do not run.
  • TFE_TOKEN=<admin token> and TFE_HOSTNAME=<hostname>. The helpers for these tests require admin access to a TFC/TFE instance.
  • -timeout=30m. Some of these tests take longer than the default 10m timeout for go test.

Flags

  • Use the -v flag for normal verbose mode.
  • Use the -tfoutput flag to print the terraform output to standard out.
  • Use -ldflags to change the version Prerelease to match a version available remotely. Some behaviors rely on the exact local version Terraform being available in TFC/TFE, and manipulating the Prerelease during build is often the only way to ensure this. (More on -ldflags.)
