PROFILE

Alaitz Mendiola

During four months on the openshift-kni/eco-gotests repository, Alex Mendiola enhanced system testing for O-RAN SNO provisioning and Day-2 operations, focusing on reliability and maintainability. Alex developed new Go-based test suites for O-Cloud provisioning and operator upgrades, refactored policy compliance checks for determinism, and introduced comprehensive alarms tests supporting OpenShift 4.20 and metal3 hardware integration. By updating Dockerfiles, migrating image tooling, and simplifying post-upgrade validation, Alex improved CI/CD feedback and reduced maintenance overhead. The work demonstrated depth in Go development, Kubernetes, and automation, resulting in more robust test coverage and safer validation of complex provisioning and operational workflows.

May 2025 monthly summary for repository openshift-kni/eco-gotests. Key features delivered include O-RAN SNO provisioning Day-2 system tests enhancements and Day-2 operations like operator upgrades. This work introduces new test suites for O-Cloud provisioning scenarios (successful and failed provisioning using Assisted Installer and Image Based Installer) and includes updates to Dockerfiles and Go modules to support these capabilities. It also aligns with a tooling migration from buildah to skopeo and adjusts configuration paths for test assets. Commits contributing to this feature: b4974b1afcf8e812e4df537536751385b254d60a and 17cef1e1af3e2ec000f68a63fefe3240d7913c6a. Major bugs fixed include a fix for the O-cloud tests configuration loading bug by correcting the path resolution relative to the test file, ensuring configuration loads correctly and tests run reliably. Commit: a75eb59537f4dc5d8cfdb56e3f6e7b73b8b79a11. Overall impact and accomplishments: expanded end-to-end ORAN SNO testing coverage, improved reliability of test configuration loading, and reduced tooling friction with the migration to skopeo; Go module updates and Dockerfile refinements streamline ongoing maintenance. Technologies/skills demonstrated: Go modules, Dockerfile maintenance, system/test automation, test tooling migration (buildah -> skopeo), and configuration/path handling. Business value: higher confidence in releases for ORAN SNO provisioning and Day-2 operations, reduced risk in deployments, and faster feedback within CI/CD pipelines.
