# Local end-to-end smoke test
`scripts/run-local-e2e.sh` runs the full system as local processes with no
real OpenStack cloud and no real internet access:
- **control-api** with `openstack.mode: mock` — the in-memory
`openstack.MockClient` stands in for Neutron, pre-seeded with one
synthetic floating IP per configured address (see
`cmd/control-api/main.go`'s `newOpenStackClient`).
- **1 validator-agent** (`validator_01`), started with
`-stub-ports 12022,18081,18443,18888` — trivial accept-and-close TCP
listeners standing in for the base-minimum services (22/80/443/8080) a
real validator would run. ICMP needs no stub: the kernel answers echo
requests to any local address (127.0.0.0/8) on its own.
- **3 probers** (`site-1`/`site-2`/`site-3`), all probing `127.0.0.1`.
- **3 `httpstub` instances** (`scripts/httpstub`) standing in for the real
outbound targets (hub.docker.com / github.com / packages.ubuntu.com),
always returning `200 OK`.
The generated config uses a short `lease_ttl_seconds: 8` and
`checking_window_seconds: 15` so the whole run finishes in well under a
minute instead of using the (much longer) production defaults.
**Why only one IP address (`127.0.0.1`), and why it must be exactly that
one:** the self-check mechanism (`GET /whatsmyip`, see
`internal/httpapi/server.go`'s `remoteIP`) compares the TCP source address
the validator-agent's own outbound connection to control-api arrives with
against the address it was just assigned. In a real deployment, Neutron
actually SNATs the validator's egress traffic through whichever floating
IP is attached, so any configured address self-checks correctly. This
offline harness has no real network-level SNAT — the agent's traffic to
control-api always really originates from `127.0.0.1` — so only that
literal loopback address can ever pass self-check here. This is a
limitation of the harness's fidelity, not of the self-check mechanism
itself.
## Running it
```
scripts/run-local-e2e.sh
```
It will:
1. Build all three binaries plus `httpstub` into a temp workdir.
2. Start the 3 stub HTTP targets, control-api, the validator-agent, and the
3 probers.
3. Wait for `GET /healthz` to come up.
4. A few seconds in, **kill the validator-agent mid-run** and wait past the
8s lease TTL, to demonstrate that control-api's lease sweep reclaims the
in-flight IP (moves it back to `queued`, bumps `retry_count`) without
any special crash-recovery code — it's the same sweep that runs every
tick. It then restarts the validator-agent so the queue can finish.
5. Poll `GET /api/v1/admin/status` until every configured IP has reached a
terminal state (`done` or `failed`).
6. Print the final `/api/v1/admin/status` and `/api/v1/admin/ips` output.
Expect to see `127.0.0.1` end with `"state":"done"` and
`"overall_result":"pass"` (all egress checks against the stub targets
succeed, and all 3 probers can reach the stub TCP listeners and get ICMP
replies from loopback).
## Inspecting a run
The workdir (printed at the end, `/tmp/cloud-ip-validator-e2e.XXXXXX`) is
**not** deleted automatically, so you can inspect:
- `logs/control-api.log`, `logs/validator-agent.log`, `logs/prober-site-*.log`
- `control-api.db` — open with `sqlite3` to inspect the `checks` and
`events` tables directly, e.g.:
```
sqlite3 /tmp/cloud-ip-validator-e2e.XXXXXX/control-api.db \
"select ip_address, source, check_type, success from checks order by id"
```
## What this does *not* cover
This harness proves the orchestration, HTTP protocol, and check-running
logic all work together correctly. It does **not** exercise the real
`internal/openstack/client.go` (gophercloud) path — that only runs against
`openstack.mode: real` with actual OpenStack credentials. That path has its
own read-only smoke test, `internal/openstack/client_live_test.go`, skipped
by default and gated behind `OPENSTACK_LIVE_TEST=1`:
```
OPENSTACK_LIVE_TEST=1 \
OS_AUTH_URL=https://keystone.example:5000/v3 \
OS_TOKEN=... \
OS_PROJECT_ID=... \
OS_TEST_FLOATING_IP=203.0.113.10 \
go test ./internal/openstack/... -run TestClientLive -v
