kova-parallels-smoke

What problem does it solve?

It helps you reliably run and interpret Parallels guest smoke workflows for Kova installation, onboarding, gateway health, and upgrade regressions, so failures can be diagnosed quickly from structured phase logs rather than guesswork.

Core Features & Use Cases

• End-to-end Parallels Smoke Coverage: Runs fresh and upgrade-oriented lanes across macOS, Linux, and Windows guest workflows, including gateway verification and post-update agent turn checks.
• Deterministic, Guardrailed Execution: Enforces snapshot/baseline selection rules, VM concurrency constraints, and strict per-phase timeouts to prevent stalled installs or snapshot operations from consuming the whole test window.
• Structured Debug Output: Captures per-lane logs under /tmp/kova-parallels-* and includes guidance for when to inspect specific phase logs (install-main, install-latest, install-baseline, update-dev, etc.) based on observed timeouts.

Quick Start

Run the Parallels smoke harness for your target platform and mode, such as a macOS fresh baseline run, by invoking the repository’s Parallels skill entrypoint that corresponds to your desired guest family and lane type.
