Terraform setup for AWS CloudWatch Input Integration Tests

This directory contains a Terraform module that creates the AWS resources needed for executing the integration tests for the aws-cloudwatch Filebeat input. It creates two CloudWatch log groups, and one log stream under each log group.

It outputs configuration information that is consumed by the tests to outputs.yml. The AWS resources are randomly named to prevent name collisions between multiple users.

Usage

You must have the appropriate AWS environment variables for authentication set before running Terraform or the integration tests. The AWS key must be authorized to create and destroy AWS CloudWatch log groups.

1. Initialize a working directory containing Terraform configuration files.

   terraform init

2. Execute terraform in this directory to create the resources. This will also write the outputs.yml. You can use export TF_VAR_aws_region=NNNNN in order to match the AWS region of the profile you are using.

   terraform apply

3. (Optional) View the output configuration.

   yamlCopy

    "aws_region": "us-east-1"
    "log_group_name_1": "filebeat-cloudwatch-integtest-1-417koa"
    "log_group_name_2": "filebeat-cloudwatch-integtest-2-417koa"
   

4. Execute the integration test.

   Copy

   cd x-pack/filebeat/input/awss3
   go test -tags aws,integration -run TestInputRun.+ -v .
   

5. Cleanup AWS resources. Execute terraform to delete the log groups created for testing.

   terraform destroy
