# Test Environment Service - Implementation Summary

**Date**: 2025-10-06
**Status**: ✅ Complete and Production Ready

---

## 🎯 What Was Built

A complete **containerized test environment service** integrated into the orchestrator, enabling automated testing of:
- Single taskservs
- Complete servers with multiple taskservs
- Multi-node cluster topologies (Kubernetes, etcd, etc.)

### Key Innovation
**No manual Docker management** - The orchestrator automatically handles:
- Container lifecycle
- Network isolation
- Resource limits
- Multi-node topologies
- Test execution
- Cleanup

---

## 📦 Implementation Details

### Rust Components (Orchestrator)

#### 1. **test_environment.rs** - Core Types
- Test environment types: Single/Server/Cluster
- Resource limits configuration
- Network configuration
- Container instances
- Test results tracking

#### 2. **container_manager.rs** - Docker Integration
- Docker API client (bollard)
- Container lifecycle management
- Network creation/isolation
- Image pulling
- Command execution
- Log collection

#### 3. **test_orchestrator.rs** - Orchestration
- Environment provisioning logic
- Single taskserv setup
- Server simulation
- Cluster topology deployment
- Test execution framework
- Cleanup automation

#### 4. **API Endpoints** (main.rs)
```
POST   /test/environments/create
GET    /test/environments
GET    /test/environments/{id}
POST   /test/environments/{id}/run
DELETE /test/environments/{id}
GET    /test/environments/{id}/logs
```

### Nushell Integration

#### 1. **test_environments.nu** - Core Commands
- `test env create` - Create from config
- `test env single` - Single taskserv test
- `test env server` - Server simulation
- `test env cluster` - Cluster topology
- `test env list/get/status` - Management
- `test env run` - Execute tests
- `test env logs` - View logs
- `test env cleanup` - Cleanup
- `test quick` - One-command test

#### 2. **test/mod.nu** - CLI Dispatcher
- Command routing
- Help system
- Integration with main CLI

#### 3. **CLI Integration**
- Added to main dispatcher
- Registry shortcuts: `test`, `tst`
- Full help documentation

### Configuration & Templates

#### 1. **test-topologies.toml** - Predefined Topologies
Templates included:
- `kubernetes_3node` - K8s HA cluster (1 CP + 2 workers)
- `kubernetes_single` - All-in-one K8s
- `etcd_cluster` - 3-member etcd cluster
- `containerd_test` - Standalone containerd
- `postgres_redis` - Database stack

#### 2. **Cargo.toml** - Dependencies
- Added `bollard = "0.17"` for Docker API

## 🚀 Usage Examples

### 1. Quick Test (Fastest)
```bash
provisioning test quick kubernetes
```

### 2. Single Taskserv
```bash
provisioning test env single postgres --auto-start --auto-cleanup
```

### 3. Server Simulation
```bash
provisioning test env server web-01 [containerd kubernetes cilium] --auto-start
```

### 4. Cluster from Template
```bash
provisioning test topology load kubernetes_3node | test env cluster kubernetes --auto-start
```

### 5. Custom Resources
```bash
provisioning test env single redis --cpu 4000 --memory 8192
```

### 6. List & Manage
```bash
# List environments
provisioning test env list

# Check status
provisioning test env status <env-id>

# View logs
provisioning test env logs <env-id>

# Cleanup
provisioning test env cleanup <env-id>
```
