Helmit

Safety first!

Helmit is a Golang framework and tool for end-to-end testing of Kubernetes applications. The Helmit Go API and the helmit command line tool work together to manage the deployment, testing, benchmarking, and verification of Helm-based applications running in Kubernetes.

Helmit can be used to:

• Verify Helm charts and the resources they construct
• Run end-to-end tests to verify a service/API
• Run end-to-end benchmarks for Kubernetes applications
• Scale benchmarks across multi-node Kubernetes clusters
• Run randomized client simulations for Kubernetes applications (e.g. for formal verification)
