Chef JTalks Cookbook

Contains recipes to prepare environment for JTalks components deployment - should install required dependencies, MySQL, configure firewalls, etc. Go through Tests Kichen guides in order to get a notion on how the development is going on.

Installation

The process is described on Test Kitchen site itself. Summary:

• Install Ruby. On *nix you'd probably want to use rbenv utility for this purpose. All the installation scripts and most of utilities are written in Ruby.
• Install Vagrant & VirtualBox for running virtual machines.
• gem install test-kitchen - this installs a utility to easy startup an env with the cookbook and run tests if needed.
• gem install berkshelf - utility for test kitchen to download dependant cookbooks If this fails, you probably didn't install Ruby correctly. Run kitchen version to check the gem was installed.
• Run kitchen converge to startup a VM with the cookbooks and kitchen verify to run the integration tests.
