harmony-fleet-e2e
End-to-end test harness for the fleet stack. Brings up NATS (in k3d)
plus one or more fleet-agent instances — either as in-cluster Pods
(cheap, no podman) or on real libvirt VMs (expensive, real podman,
matches the production Raspberry Pi target).
Per ADR-023 P2, the harness composes the same *Score types
production uses (FleetNatsScore, FleetAgentScore,
ProvisionVmScore, FleetDeviceSetupScore). The only thing this
crate owns is the test-fixture wiring: per-binary OnceCell bring-up,
RAII cleanup of namespaces + VMs, and admin-side KV helpers.

Tests in tests/ map 1:1 to scenarios:
| File | What it asserts | Cost |
|---|---|---|
ping.rs |
Pod agent replies to Verb::Ping over NATS |

VM agent replies to Verb::Ping over NATS |
aarch64 VM bring-up |

Env gates
Every test in this crate is gated so cargo test --workspace stays cheap.
| Var | Purpose |
|---|---|
HARMONY_FLEET_E2E=1 |
Enable the Pod-target test (ping.rs). Needs k3d + podman on PATH. |
HARMONY_FLEET_VM_E2E=1 |
Enable the VM-target tests (vm_*). Needs libvirt + qemu + aarch64 cross-toolchain. |
FLEET_E2E_KEEP=1 |
Leave the k8s namespace + libvirt VM in place on test exit (debug). |
RUST_LOG=... |
Standard tracing filter; default is info. |
Running tests
Pod-target (cheap, fast iteration)
HARMONY_FLEET_E2E=1 cargo test -p harmony-fleet-e2e --test ping -- --nocapture
VM-target (expensive, real podman + aarch64 boot)
# One scenario at a time. Each test binary brings up its own VM
# (cargo runs each integration test file as a separate binary, so the
# per-binary `shared_vm_stack` OnceCell does not amortize across binaries).
HARMONY_FLEET_VM_E2E=1 RUST_LOG=info cargo test -p harmony-fleet-e2e --test vm_ping -- --nocapture
HARMONY_FLEET_VM_E2E=1 RUST_LOG=info cargo test -p harmony-fleet-e2e --test vm_isolation -- --nocapture
HARMONY_FLEET_VM_E2E=1 RUST_LOG=info cargo test -p harmony-fleet-e2e --test vm_deploy_lifecycle -- --nocapture
# All three sequentially:
HARMONY_FLEET_VM_E2E=1 RUST_LOG=info cargo test -p harmony-fleet-e2e \
--test vm_ping --test vm_isolation --test vm_deploy_lifecycle -- --nocapture --test-threads=1
# Everything in the crate at once (skips disabled, runs enabled):

Debugging a failed bring-up
# Leave the VM + namespace alive; inspect by hand.
FLEET_E2E_KEEP=1 HARMONY_FLEET_VM_E2E=1 RUST_LOG=debug \
cargo test -p harmony-fleet-e2e --test vm_ping -- --nocapture
# After the test exits, the harness logs the cleanup commands you'd run:
# kubectl delete namespace e2e-<uuid>
# virsh destroy fleet-e2e-vm-<run>-<i>
# virsh undefine --nvram --remove-all-storage fleet-e2e-vm-<run>-<i>
# Tail the VM agent's journal:
ssh -i ~/.local/share/harmony/fleet/ssh/id_ed25519 \
fleet-admin@<vm-ip> -- 'journalctl -u fleet-agent -f'
Host prerequisites
The Pod path needs: k3d, podman, cargo, kubectl.
The VM path adds:
# Arch
sudo pacman -S libvirt qemu-full libisoburn python podman \
aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc
rustup target add aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu
# Debian / Ubuntu
sudo apt install libvirt-daemon-system qemu-kvm xorriso python3 python3-venv \
podman gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu
rustup target add aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu
# One-time libvirt setup
sudo usermod -aG libvirt "$USER" # then re-login
sudo virsh net-start default
sudo virsh net-autostart default
fleet/scripts/smoke-a3-arm.sh is the bash equivalent of vm_ping.rs
and a useful sanity check when the Rust path misbehaves — same
underlying Scores, fewer moving parts.
How the VM tests reach NATS
NATS runs in k3d. The harness publishes it as a NodePort Service
on host port 30423. The test process connects directly to
nats://127.0.0.1:30423; the VM connects to the same NodePort via
the libvirt default-network gateway (typically 192.168.122.1) —
vm::network::libvirt_default_gateway_ip discovers the IP at
bring-up.
What's deliberately not tested here
- Operator-side aggregation. The operator's KV-watch → CR-status reflection is covered by the operator crate's own suite. These tests bypass the operator and talk to NATS directly to keep the failure surface narrow — when an agent test fails, you know it's the agent.
- Real Zitadel auth. All VM tests run against the
FleetNatsScore::user_passmode. The Zitadel-JWT path is exercised byexamples/fleet_e2e_demo(currently#[ignore]'d pending a CI runner with full bring-up capacity). - x86_64 VM bring-up. Locked to aarch64 because that's the
production target. An x86_64 fast-path can be added by widening
VmStackOptions::arch; out of scope today.
