AWS Provider Test Suite

Version: 1.0 Last Updated: 2026-01-07 Status: Production Ready (Mock Mode - No Real API Calls)


Overview

The AWS Provider Test Suite provides comprehensive testing coverage with 51 deterministic tests running in mock mode. All tests use pre-defined AWS API response fixtures with no external API calls required.

Test Structure: 14 unit tests + 37 integration tests = 51 total tests


Running Tests

Run All Tests

cd provisioning/extensions/providers/aws
nu tests/run_aws_tests.nu

Expected Result: All 51 tests pass in less than 5 seconds with no external API calls.

Test Breakdown

Unit Tests (14 tests)

File: tests/unit/test_utils.nu

Tests utility functions for validation and parsing:

  • Instance ID format validation (i-1234567890abcdef0)
  • IPv4 address extraction and validation (10.0.1.100)
  • Instance type validation (t3.micro, m5.large, c5.xlarge)
  • Availability zone validation (us-east-1a, eu-west-1b)
  • EBS volume ID validation (vol-12345678)
  • Volume state validation (creating, available, in-use, deleting)
  • CIDR block format validation (10.0.0.0/16)
  • Volume type validation (gp2, gp3, io1, io2, st1, sc1)
  • ISO 8601 timestamp parsing (2025-01-07T10:00:00.000Z)
  • Server state validation (pending, running, stopped, terminated)
  • Security group ID validation (sg-12345678)
  • Memory specification validation (512 MB, 1 GB, 4 GB)
  • vCPU count validation (1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32)

Result: 14/14 PASS ✓

Integration Tests (37 tests)

API Client Tests (13 tests)

File: tests/integration/test_api_client.nu

Tests AWS EC2 API client functionality:

  • describe-instances returns list of reservations
  • Reservation structure contains instances array
  • Single instance response with all required fields
  • describe-volumes list response structure
  • Volume response validation (VolumeId, Size, State, AZ)
  • Create instance response in pending state
  • Instance type information structure
  • Error response 401 (UnauthorizedOperation)
  • Error response 404 (InvalidInstanceID.NotFound)
  • Error response 429 (RequestLimitExceeded)
  • Instance state values (running, stopped)
  • Key pair information availability
  • Pricing data structure validation
  • Volume attachment information

Result: 13/13 PASS ✓

Server Lifecycle Tests (12 tests)

File: tests/integration/test_server_lifecycle.nu

Tests server lifecycle operations:

  • List servers returns EC2 instances
  • Server info has required fields (InstanceId, Type, State, IPs)
  • Hostname tag lookup matches expected values
  • Server state validation (running vs stopped)
  • Public IP address presence and format
  • Create instance response validation
  • Instance type details (vCPU count, memory)
  • Availability zone information
  • Block device mapping (attached volumes)
  • Security group assignment
  • Launch time recording
  • Multiple instance state differentiation

Result: 12/12 PASS ✓

Pricing Tests (12 tests)

File: tests/integration/test_pricing.nu

Tests pricing and cost estimation:

  • Pricing data has instance type field
  • Pricing includes on-demand rate
  • Pricing includes reserved rate (lower than on-demand)
  • Instance type filtering (t3.micro, t3.small, t3.medium)
  • Price scaling (larger instances cost more)
  • vCPU correlation with pricing
  • Memory format specification (GB units)
  • Monthly cost calculation (hourly rate times 730)
  • All pricing entries complete
  • Volume pricing available
  • gp3 volume IOPS and throughput specifications
  • Volume cost estimation (per GB-month)

Result: 12/12 PASS ✓


Mock Data

Mock Responses File

File: tests/mocks/mock_api_responses.json

Contains realistic AWS EC2 API response fixtures:

  • describe_instances_list: Two test instances (one running, one stopped)
  • describe_instances_single: Single running instance with full details
  • describe_volumes_list: Two test volumes (one in-use, one available)
  • describe_volumes_single: Single volume with attachment information
  • create_instance_response: New instance response in pending state
  • describe_key_pairs: SSH key pair listing with aws-default key
  • describe_instance_types: Three instance type specifications
  • error_401: Unauthorized operation error response
  • error_404: Resource not found error response
  • error_429: Rate limit exceeded error response
  • pricing_data: Three pricing tiers (t3.micro, t3.small, t3.medium)

All responses match the actual AWS EC2 API response format.
