March 2025 monthly summary for kartverket/backstage-plugin-risk-crypto-service. Focused on delivering a robust, CI-friendly SOPS testing workflow and tightening security configuration for smoke tests, driving reliability, faster feedback, and clearer maintainability. Key features delivered: - SOPS Smoke Test Infrastructure and Docker/Test Execution: Established a containerized smoke-test workflow with a dedicated Gradle module, improved Docker readiness checks, enabled local testing without pre-built images, refined Testcontainers usage, and enhanced Docker build/IO handling for CI reliability. - SOPS_AGE_KEY Environment Variable Management for Smoke Tests: Consolidated handling of SOPS_AGE_KEY by removing insecure defaults, migrating configuration to environment variables and CI workflows, and ensuring tests run with explicit, secure key configuration. Major bugs fixed: - Fixed and stabilized the SOPS smoke test (adjusted assertions, improved stderr handling after waitFor, and updated Testcontainers). - Upgraded dependencies and refined image-building logic: Testcontainers to 1.20.6 with a version variable, early return in buildDockerIfNeeded when an image already exists, and removal of unnecessary print statements in container tests. - Removed insecure defaults and moved SOPS_AGE_KEY to a secure environment variable setup; eliminated dummy values after verification. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Significantly improved reliability and speed of SOPS-related testing, enabling local testability without pre-built images and more deterministic CI outcomes. - Strengthened security posture by eliminating dummy keys and anchoring configuration in environment variables and CI workflows. - Reduced CI flakiness through better IO handling, synchronization, and clearer test logic, accelerating feedback for risk-crypto-service changes. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Gradle-based test automation, Docker, Testcontainers, and containerized CI workflows. - Environment variable security management and CI/CD configuration. - Java/Kotlin test patterns, robust assertions, and build optimization for test reliability.
