This test suite tests Boundary in an end-to-end setting, utilizing both the Boundary CLI and the Boundary Go API to exercise Boundary through various user workflows. It was designed to be run in a variety of environments as long as the appropriate environment variables are set. The test suite itself uses the standard go test library.
One method for setting up an environment is utilizing Enos to create the desired infrastructure.
Setup Enos as described here
Then, use the following commands to run tests
cd enos
enos scenario list
# `Run` executes the tests and destroys the associated infrastructure in one command
enos scenario run e2e_{scenario} builder:local
# `Launch` executes the tests, but leaves the infrastructure online for debugging purposes
enos scenario launch e2e_{scenario} builder:local
enos scenario output # displays any defined enos output
enos scenario destroy # destroys infraEnos scenarios set up the infrastructure, set the appropriate environment variables, and run the specified tests in its scenario file.
Note: To run the e2e_host_aws scenario, you will need access to the boundary team's test AWS
account.
Set the appropriate environment variables...

go test github.com/hashicorp/boundary/testing/internal/e2e/tests/base
go test ./target/ // run target tests if running from this directory
go test github.com/hashicorp/boundary/testing/internal/e2e/tests/base -v // verbose
go test github.com/hashicorp/boundary/testing/internal/e2e/tests/base -v -run '^TestCreateTargetApi$' // run a specific testTests live in the tests/ directory. Additional tests can be added to an existing go package or a
new one can be created. If a new package is created, a new enos scenario would also need to be
created.
Enos is comprised of scenarios, where a scenario is the environment you want the tests to operate in. In one scenario, there may be a boundary cluster and a target. Another scenario might involve a boundary cluster and a vault instance. Scenarios can be found in boundary/enos
To run these tests in CI, the enos-run.yml github action
workflow must be updated to include the new scenario (see the matrix).
To assist with iterating on tests on enos launched infrastructure, you can perform the following...
Launch an enos scenario and print out the environment variables
cd enos
enos scenario launch e2e_{scenario} builder:local
bash scripts/test_e2e_env.sh
Take the printed environment variable information and export them into another terminal session
export BOUNDARY_ADDR=
export E2E_PASSWORD_AUTH_METHOD_ID=
...
Run your tests
go test -v {go package}
