CloudNativePG is automatically tested after each commit via a suite of End-to-end (E2E) tests (or integration tests) which ensure that the operator correctly deploys and manages PostgreSQL clusters. Kubernetes versions 1.25 through 1.29, and PostgreSQL versions 12 through 16, are tested for each commit, helping detect bugs at an early stage of the development process. For each tested version of Kubernetes and PostgreSQL, a Kubernetes cluster is created using , run on the GitHub Actions platform, and the following suite of E2E tests are performed on that cluster: Basic:* Installation of the operator Creation of a Cluster Usage of a persistent volume for data storage Service connectivity:* Connection via services, including read-only Connection via user-provided server and/or client certificates PgBouncer Self-healing:* Failover Switchover Primary endpoint switch in case of failover in less than 10 seconds Primary endpoint switch in case of switchover in less than 20 seconds Recover from a degraded state in less than 60 seconds PVC Deletion Corrupted PVC Backup and Restore:* Backup and restore from Volume Snapshots Backup and ScheduledBackups execution using Barman Cloud on S3 Backup and ScheduledBackups execution using Barman Cloud on Azure blob storage Restore from backup using Barman Cloud on S3 Restore from backup using Barman Cloud on Azure blob storage Point-in-time recovery (PITR) on Azure, S3 storage Wal-Restore (sequential / parallel) Operator:* Operator Deployment Operator configuration via ConfigMap Operator pod deletion Operator pod eviction Operator upgrade Operator High Availability Observability:* Metrics collection PgBouncer Metrics JSON log format Replication:* Replication Slots Synchronous replication Scale-up and scale-down of a Cluster Replica clusters* Bootstrapping a replica cluster from backup Bootstrapping a replica cluster via streaming Bootstrapping via volume snapshots Detaching a replica cluster Plugin:* Cluster Hibernation using CNPG plugin Fencing Creation of a connection certificate Postgres Configuration:* Manage PostgreSQL configuration changes Rolling updates when changing PostgreSQL images Rolling updates when changing ImageCatalog/ClusterImageCatalog images Rolling updates on hot standby sensitive parameter changes Database initialization via InitDB Pod Scheduling:* Tolerations and taints Pod affinity using `NodeSelector` Rolling updates on PodSpec drift detection In-place upgrades Multi-Arch availability Cluster Metadata:* ConfigMap for Cluster Labels and Annotations Object metadata Recovery:* Data corruption pg_basebackup Importing Databases:* Microservice approach Monolith approach Storage:* Storage expansion Dedicated PG_WAL persistent volume Security:* AppArmor annotation propagation.
