This repo contains tests written in JavaScript ES6 with Mocha BDD framework

API Tests

located under : test/api/specs

API tests calls Methods from AWS SDK for NodeJs
using Mocha executor and Chai assertions

Test Scenario:

Step 1 - Request an EC2 Instance and Validate its Up and Running
Step 2 - Request Teardown of the EC2 Instance and Validate its Terminated

A Live GIF recording of the above can be seen here

Pre-Reqs:

• To run this you must have a Access Key ID and Secret Access Key
  Add those keys/values to the .env file(explained later). Also your userRole should have AmazonEC2FullAccess permission

• Add ImageId, Region, API Version and Instance Type: Please use Free Tier Assets to avoid surprises in you next Credit-Card bill

What the Test does:
EC2_CRUD_Test Like UI tests, this API tests takes help of helper/action functions to test the above scenario

• Checks everytime if a Key Pair exists, if exists then use it for EC2 creation, if doesn’t then create one on the fly and use it
• Send request for EC2 Instance creation and wait until status of the instance is running. Validate this status with help of Chai assertions
• Send request for EC2 Instance termination and wait until status is terminated. Validate this status with help of Chai assertions

Note: The above test is not set up to run in CI as I have a public CircleCI account and don’t wanna risk exposing my AWS access key-id credential to the www
