R Documentation

Tests a registered extension to make sure it meets all necessary requirements for being published in the CloudFormation registry

Description

Tests a registered extension to make sure it meets all necessary requirements for being published in the CloudFormation registry.

• For resource types, this includes passing all contracts tests defined for the type.

• For modules, this includes determining if the module's model meets all necessary requirements.

For more information, see Testing your public extension before publishing in the CloudFormation Command Line Interface (CLI) User Guide.

If you don't specify a version, CloudFormation uses the default version of the extension in your account and Region for testing.

To perform testing, CloudFormation assumes the execution role specified when the type was registered. For more information, see register_type.

Once you've initiated testing on an extension using test_type, you can pass the returned TypeVersionArn into describe_type to monitor the current test status and test status description for the extension.

An extension must have a test status of PASSED before it can be published. For more information, see Publishing extensions to make them available for public use in the CloudFormation Command Line Interface (CLI) User Guide.

Usage

cloudformation_test_type(Arn, Type, TypeName, VersionId,
  LogDeliveryBucket)

Arguments

Arn	The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the extension. Conditional: You must specify Arn, or TypeName and Type.
Type	The type of the extension to test. Conditional: You must specify Arn, or TypeName and Type.
TypeName	The name of the extension to test. Conditional: You must specify Arn, or TypeName and Type.
VersionId	The version of the extension to test. You can specify the version id with either Arn, or with TypeName and Type. If you don't specify a version, CloudFormation uses the default version of the extension in this account and Region for testing.
LogDeliveryBucket	The S3 bucket to which CloudFormation delivers the contract test execution logs. CloudFormation delivers the logs by the time contract testing has completed and the extension has been assigned a test type status of PASSED or FAILED. The user calling test_type must be able to access items in the specified S3 bucket. Specifically, the user needs the following permissions: GetObject PutObject For more information, see Actions, Resources, and Condition Keys for Amazon S3 in the Identity and Access Management User Guide.
