## Test Coverage

### Workload Types

| Workload | Annotations | EnvVars | CSI | Special Handling |
|----------|-------------|---------|-----|------------------|
| Deployment | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | Standard rolling update |
| DaemonSet | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | Standard rolling update |
| StatefulSet | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | Standard rolling update |
| CronJob | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ | Updates job template |
| Job | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ | Recreates job |
| Argo Rollout | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ | Supports restart strategy |
| DeploymentConfig | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ | OpenShift only |

### Resource Types

#### ConfigMaps & Secrets

Standard Kubernetes resources that trigger reloads when their data changes.

**Tested Scenarios:**
- Data changes trigger reload
- Label-only changes do NOT trigger reload
- Annotation-only changes do NOT trigger reload
- Multiple resources in single annotation (comma-separated)
- Regex patterns for resource names

#### SecretProviderClass (CSI)

CSI Secrets Store Driver integration for external secret providers (Vault, Azure, AWS, etc.).

**Tested Scenarios:**
- SecretProviderClassPodStatus changes trigger reload
- Label-only changes on SPCPS do NOT trigger reload
- Auto-detection with `secretproviderclass.reloader.stakater.com/auto: "true"`
- Exclude specific SPCs from auto-reload
- Init containers with CSI volumes
- Multiple CSI volumes per workload

### Reload Strategies

#### Annotations Strategy (Default)

Adds/updates `reloader.stakater.com/last-reloaded-from` annotation on pod template.

```yaml
spec:
  template:
    metadata:
      annotations:
        reloader.stakater.com/last-reloaded-from: "my-configmap"
```

#### EnvVars Strategy

Adds `STAKATER_<RESOURCE>_<TYPE>` environment variable to containers.

```yaml
spec:
  template:
    spec:
      containers:
      - env:
        - name: STAKATER_MY_CONFIGMAP_CONFIGMAP
          value: "<sha256-hash>"
```

### Reference Methods

All methods are tested for Deployment, DaemonSet, and StatefulSet:

| Method | Description | ConfigMap | Secret | CSI |
|--------|-------------|-----------|--------|-----|
| `envFrom` | All keys as env vars | ✅ | ✅ | - |
| `valueFrom.configMapKeyRef` | Single key as env var | ✅ | - | - |
| `valueFrom.secretKeyRef` | Single key as env var | - | ✅ | - |
| Volume mount | Mount as files | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |
| Projected volume | Combined sources | ✅ | ✅ | - |
| Init container (envFrom) | Init container env | ✅ | ✅ | - |
| Init container (volume) | Init container mount | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |

### Annotations

#### Reload Triggers

| Annotation | Description |
|------------|-------------|
| `configmap.reloader.stakater.com/reload` | Reload on specific ConfigMap(s) change |
| `secret.reloader.stakater.com/reload` | Reload on specific Secret(s) change |
| `secretproviderclass.reloader.stakater.com/reload` | Reload on specific SPC(s) change |

#### Auto-Detection

| Annotation | Description |
|------------|-------------|
| `reloader.stakater.com/auto: "true"` | Auto-detect all mounted resources |
| `configmap.reloader.stakater.com/auto: "true"` | Auto-detect ConfigMaps only |
| `secret.reloader.stakater.com/auto: "true"` | Auto-detect Secrets only |
| `secretproviderclass.reloader.stakater.com/auto: "true"` | Auto-detect SPCs only |

#### Exclusions

| Annotation | Description |
|------------|-------------|
| `configmaps.exclude.reloader.stakater.com/reload` | Exclude ConfigMaps from auto |
| `secrets.exclude.reloader.stakater.com/reload` | Exclude Secrets from auto |
| `secretproviderclasses.exclude.reloader.stakater.com/reload` | Exclude SPCs from auto |
| `reloader.stakater.com/ignore: "true"` | On resource: prevents any reload |

#### Search & Match

| Annotation | Target | Description |
|------------|--------|-------------|
| `reloader.stakater.com/search: "true"` | Workload | Watch for matching resources |
| `reloader.stakater.com/match: "true"` | Resource | Trigger watchers on change |

#### Other

| Annotation | Description |
|------------|-------------|
| `reloader.stakater.com/pause-period` | Pause deployment after reload |

### CLI Flags

## Debugging

### View Test Output

```bash
# Verbose output
go tool ginkgo -v ./test/e2e/core/...

# Focus on specific test
go tool ginkgo -v --focus="should reload when ConfigMap" ./test/e2e/...

# Show all spec names
go tool ginkgo -v --dry-run ./test/e2e/...
```

### Check Reloader Logs

```bash
# Find Reloader pod
kubectl get pods -A | grep reloader

# View logs
kubectl logs -n <namespace> -l app.kubernetes.io/name=reloader --tail=100 -f

# Check events
kubectl get events -n <namespace> --sort-by='.lastTimestamp'
```

### Inspect Test Resources

```bash
# List test namespaces
kubectl get ns | grep reloader

# Check workloads in test namespace
kubectl get deploy,ds,sts,cronjob,job -n <test-namespace>

# Check ConfigMaps/Secrets
kubectl get cm,secret -n <test-namespace>

# Check CSI resources
kubectl get secretproviderclass,secretproviderclasspodstatus -n <test-namespace>
```

### Common Issues

| Issue | Cause | Solution |
|-------|-------|----------|
| Tests timeout | Reloader not running | Check pod status and logs |
| CSI tests skipped | CSI driver not installed | Run `make e2e-setup` |
| Argo tests skipped | Argo Rollouts not installed | Run `make e2e-setup` |
| OpenShift tests skipped | Not an OpenShift cluster | Expected on Kind |
| "resource not found" | Missing CRDs | Install required components |
| Duplicate volume names | Test bug | Check CSI volume naming |

## Writing Tests

### Using the Workload Adapter Pattern

Test the same behavior across multiple workload types:

```go
DescribeTable("should reload when ConfigMap changes",
    func(workloadType utils.WorkloadType) {
        adapter := registry.Get(workloadType)
        if adapter == nil {
            Skip(fmt.Sprintf("%s not available", workloadType))
        }

        // Create ConfigMap
        _, err := utils.CreateConfigMap(ctx, kubeClient, testNamespace, configMapName,
            map[string]string{"key": "initial"}, nil)
        Expect(err).NotTo(HaveOccurred())

        // Create workload via adapter
        err = adapter.Create(ctx, testNamespace, workloadName, utils.WorkloadConfig{
            ConfigMapName:       configMapName,
            UseConfigMapEnvFrom: true,
            Annotations:         utils.BuildConfigMapReloadAnnotation(configMapName),
        })
        Expect(err).NotTo(HaveOccurred())

        // Wait for ready
        err = adapter.WaitReady(ctx, testNamespace, workloadName, utils.DeploymentReady)
        Expect(err).NotTo(HaveOccurred())

        // Update ConfigMap
        err = utils.UpdateConfigMap(ctx, kubeClient, testNamespace, configMapName,
            map[string]string{"key": "updated"})
        Expect(err).NotTo(HaveOccurred())

        // Verify reload
        reloaded, err := adapter.WaitReloaded(ctx, testNamespace, workloadName,
            utils.AnnotationLastReloadedFrom, utils.ReloadTimeout)
        Expect(err).NotTo(HaveOccurred())
        Expect(reloaded).To(BeTrue())
    },
    Entry("Deployment", utils.WorkloadDeployment),
    Entry("DaemonSet", utils.WorkloadDaemonSet),
    Entry("StatefulSet", utils.WorkloadStatefulSet),
)
```

### Direct Resource Creation

For Deployment-specific tests:

```go
It("should reload with custom setup", func() {
    _, err := utils.CreateConfigMap(ctx, kubeClient, testNamespace, configMapName,
        map[string]string{"key": "value"}, nil)
    Expect(err).NotTo(HaveOccurred())

    _, err = utils.CreateDeployment(ctx, kubeClient, testNamespace, deploymentName,
        utils.WithConfigMapEnvFrom(configMapName),
        utils.WithAnnotations(utils.BuildAutoTrueAnnotation()),
    )
    Expect(err).NotTo(HaveOccurred())

    // ... test logic ...
})
```

### CSI Tests

```go
It("should reload when SecretProviderClassPodStatus changes", func() {
    if !utils.IsCSIDriverInstalled(ctx, csiClient) {
        Skip("CSI driver not installed")
    }

    // Create SPC
    _, err := utils.CreateSecretProviderClass(ctx, csiClient, testNamespace, spcName, nil)
    Expect(err).NotTo(HaveOccurred())

    // Create SPCPS
    _, err = utils.CreateSecretProviderClassPodStatus(ctx, csiClient, testNamespace, spcpsName, spcName,
        utils.NewSPCPSObjects("secret1", "v1"))
    Expect(err).NotTo(HaveOccurred())

    // Create Deployment with CSI volume
    _, err = utils.CreateDeployment(ctx, kubeClient, testNamespace, deploymentName,
        utils.WithCSIVolume(spcName),
        utils.WithAnnotations(utils.BuildSecretProviderClassReloadAnnotation(spcName)),
    )
    Expect(err).NotTo(HaveOccurred())

    // Update SPCPS
    err = utils.UpdateSecretProviderClassPodStatus(ctx, csiClient, testNamespace, spcpsName,
        utils.NewSPCPSObjects("secret1", "v2"))
    Expect(err).NotTo(HaveOccurred())

    // Verify reload
    reloaded, err := utils.WaitForDeploymentReloaded(ctx, kubeClient, testNamespace, deploymentName,
        utils.AnnotationLastReloadedFrom, utils.ReloadTimeout)
    Expect(err).NotTo(HaveOccurred())
    Expect(reloaded).To(BeTrue())
})
```

### Negative Tests

Verify that something does NOT trigger a reload:

```go
It("should NOT reload when only labels change", func() {
    // Setup...

    // Make a change that shouldn't trigger reload
    err = utils.UpdateConfigMapLabels(ctx, kubeClient, testNamespace, configMapName,
        map[string]string{"new-label": "value"})
    Expect(err).NotTo(HaveOccurred())

    // Wait briefly, then verify NO reload
    time.Sleep(utils.NegativeTestWait)
    reloaded, err := utils.WaitForDeploymentReloaded(ctx, kubeClient, testNamespace, deploymentName,
        utils.AnnotationLastReloadedFrom, utils.ShortTimeout)
    Expect(err).NotTo(HaveOccurred())
    Expect(reloaded).To(BeFalse(), "Should NOT have reloaded")
})
```

### Test Labels

Use labels to categorize tests:

```go
Entry("Deployment", Label("csi"), utils.WorkloadDeployment),
Entry("with OpenShift", Label("openshift"), utils.WorkloadDeploymentConfig),
Entry("with Argo", Label("argo"), utils.WorkloadArgoRollout),
```

Run by label:
```bash
go tool ginkgo --label-filter="csi" ./test/e2e/...
go tool ginkgo --label-filter="!openshift && !argo" ./test/e2e/...
```
