Worked on the openshift-kni/eco-gotests repository, delivering automated system tests and infrastructure improvements for OpenShift environments. Developed and maintained test suites for O-RAN provisioning, kernel crash dump validation via Redfish BMC, cert-manager operations, and PTP synchronization, focusing on reliability and maintainability. Leveraged Go and YAML to refactor test flows, implement helper-based designs, and integrate dynamic Kubernetes clients, reducing manual steps and improving CI feedback. Addressed bugs in configuration loading and log validation, enhanced observability with klog, and aligned tests with evolving platform features. The work enabled more deterministic CI pipelines and streamlined validation of critical OpenShift components and upgrades.

May 2026 monthly summary for openshift-kni/eco-gotests: Focused on improving upgrade validation reliability and expanding automated testing for cert-manager operations. Delivered a bug fix to the seed hostname filter to correctly exclude kube-controller-manager GC logs during image-based upgrades, stabilizing upgrade log validation. Released a comprehensive cert-manager operations test suite with shared helpers, validating certificate issuance, renewal, and alert management, including DNS-01 challenges, operator installation checks, TLS secret handling, API server and Ingress certificate changes. Refactored test infrastructure to use dynamic Go-native clients (no shell.ExecuteCmd), added observability improvements with klog logging, and aligned tests with ZTP-provisioned monitoring resources to reduce setup complexity. Business impact: higher confidence in upgrade validation, improved automation for cert-manager scenarios, reduced maintenance overhead, and faster feedback on critical OpenShift components. Technologies demonstrated: Go, Kubernetes/OpenShift dynamic client, TLS/ACME, DNS-01, Prometheus, klog, test scaffolding, and shared helper packages.

Month: 2026-01 Overview: Delivered end-to-end kernel crash testing capability for OpenShift within the eco-gotests suite, focusing on reliability and verifiability of crash artifacts via Redfish BMC (NMI) triggered kdumps. This work enhances CI coverage for crash scenarios and reduces diagnosis time for kernel panics in production-like environments. Key features delivered: - Kernel crash dump testing via Redfish BMC (NMI) in OpenShift: introduced a system test that triggers a Non-Maskable Interrupt (NMI) to generate a kernel crash dump (kdump) through the Redfish BMC interface. Includes cleanup of crash directories, verification of produced vmcore dumps, and handling of BMC credentials (supports empty credentials). Major bugs fixed: - No user-facing bug fixes on this scope; focused on feature delivery and test reliability. Included lint fixes and refactor work to improve test stability. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Strengthened end-to-end crash verification in CI, enabling consistent reproduction and faster diagnosis of kernel crash scenarios in OpenShift. - Improved test framework robustness for kernel crash scenarios, with better credential handling, repository structure (nmi.go), and reusable constants. - Documented and traceable work aligned with issue #1129, with collaboration credits to Alaitz Mendiola. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - OpenShift eco-gotests test suite, Redfish BMC integration, and NMI-based crash verification. - Go code organization (nmi.go), test cleanup, lint remediation, and constants reuse. - Test orchestration and wait-for-node availability patterns in a CI context.
