📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Chores
    • Updated automated end-to-end checks to run on a kind cluster with registry access and the required Redis configuration.
    • Sequential and parallel test modes remain available, helping maintain coverage across both test runs.

The kind E2E workflows now inherit secrets, write registry credentials for kind nodes, and set the controller-manager Redis image after operator deployment. The E2E step label identifies kind; its Make target remains unchanged.

Changes: Kind E2E setup and execution

Layer / File(s) Summary
Registry credentials for kind nodes
.github/workflows/kind-ci-automation.yaml, .github/workflows/kind-e2e-job.yaml, test/kind-config.yaml
The sequential and parallel workflow calls now inherit secrets. The reusable workflow writes the registry Docker configuration file, and the control-plane and worker nodes mount it.
Operator and E2E step setup
.github/workflows/kind-e2e-job.yaml
After operator deployment, the workflow sets ARGOCD_REDIS_IMAGE on the controller-manager deployment. The E2E step label now identifies kind; the Make target is unchanged.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~8 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 894ef

The CI change pulls Redis from an authenticated Red Hat registry. Pull requests from forks cannot receive the registry credentials, so their kind E2E jobs are likely to fail on the Redis image pull. Tests can also start before the operator picks up the new image setting, and the workflows pass more secrets than they need. Resolve the fork-PR credential path before merging.

Pass only the required registry secret.

The reusable workflow references only REGISTRY_DOCKERCONFIG. Replace secrets: inherit in both callers with an explicit secret mapping, and declare that secret in the reusable workflow.

Handle fork pull requests without registry credentials.

pull_request workflows from forks do not receive repository secrets. This step therefore writes no registry credentials, and test/kind-config.yaml mounts that empty file into every kind node. The configured registry.redhat.io/rhel9/redis-7 endpoint returns 401 Unauthorized without authentication, so the Redis workload can fail to pull its image and the fork E2E jobs can fail.

Use an anonymously pullable Redis image for fork pull requests, or provide a fork-safe path that does not depend on REGISTRY_DOCKERCONFIG.

Wait for the updated manager pod before starting E2E tests.

kubectl set env starts a rollout. The later wait for Available=True can pass while an old manager pod is still available, before the new pod reads ARGOCD_REDIS_IMAGE. Wait for rollout completion before the E2E step.

Thanks for the PR. Now when I see the implementation:

  • This seems to make the docker-config.json available to anyone filing PR against this repo by modifying - say - E2E test and letting them exfiltrate the credentials in /tmp.
  • We would need something similar mechanism for other use-cases. Not sure what it takes to do this for openshift-ci, but local run of tests E2E may be tricky.

I guess the first part is fixable, but for the second, I would love to see if we can make this work with public images.

Filing #1437 as an eventual alternative. Tested one scenario locally, curious to see if full suite passes
