SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a Docker-driven framework for end-to-end validation of the Gentleman.Dots installer, ensuring reliable platform coverage and repeatable test results.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Standardized test scripts: Reusable e2e_test.sh patterns for consistent testing across platforms.
  • Docker-based environments: Platform-specific Dockerfiles and containers to validate installation on multiple stacks.
  • Non-interactive automation: Tests run with non-interactive flags for CI friendliness and automated validation.

Quick Start

  • Run all platform tests: cd installer/e2e && ./docker-test.sh
  • Validate a single platform: docker run --rm -e RUN_FULL_E2E=1 gentleman-e2e-ubuntu
  • See test patterns in installer/e2e/e2e_test.sh

Frequently Asked Questions about gentleman-e2e

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I run Docker-based end-to-end tests for an installer script?▼

Run Docker-based end-to-end tests by executing platform-specific Dockerfiles with a standardized e2e_test.sh script. Use non-interactive execution flags to validate installer behavior automatically across multiple shells and window managers.

Can I validate installer backup and restore scenarios across different platforms in CI?▼

Yes, you can validate backup and restore scenarios using Docker containers with non-interactive test scripts. Platform-specific Dockerfiles validate installation across multiple stacks, ensuring deterministic results in CI or local workflows.

What's the best way to automate E2E testing for dotfiles installation on multiple Linux environments?▼

Automate E2E testing by running platform-specific Docker containers with a standardized e2e_test.sh script. Docker-based environments validate installer behavior across multiple shells and window managers, ensuring reliable platform coverage.

Do I need Docker to run end-to-end tests for shell installer scripts?▼

Yes, Docker is required to run end-to-end tests for the installer. Docker-based environments provide platform-specific containers and Dockerfiles needed to validate installation behavior across different stacks deterministically.

How do I ensure deterministic test results when running E2E installer tests in automated pipelines?▼

Ensure deterministic E2E test results by using standardized test scripts with non-interactive execution flags and cleanup routines. Docker-based environments provide isolated containers that prevent state leakage between test runs.

Why does my E2E test hang when running installer validation in a Docker container?▼

E2E tests hang when installer scripts require interactive input. Use standardized e2e_test.sh patterns with non-interactive execution flags to prevent prompts from blocking automated validation in Docker-based environments.
