We'll be recreating a version of the apache cookbook for this chapter, with a few additions.
Create an apache cookbook in the cookbooks subdirectory by using chef generate cook-
book or knife cookbook create , as per your Chef development tool setup.
Chef Development Kit:
$ chef generate cookbook apache
$ cd apache
Chef Client:
$ knife cookbook create apache --cookbook-path .
$ cd apache
$ kitchen init --create-gemfile
$ bundle install
Create a .kitchen.yml file as shown in Example 15-5 . There's a lot more going on in this ver-
sion than we have seen in previous chapters.
For this example, we must use the chef_zero provisioner because we are making use of
Chef Server features, so make sure that is being set in the provisioner: stanza of the .kit-
chen.yml . We need Test Kitchen to spin up a Chef Zero instance for us.
Also in the provisioner: stanza, we tell Test Kitchen where the roles and environments dir-
ectories are relative to the location of the .kitchen.yml :
provisioner :
name : chef_zero
environments_path : . . /. . / environments
roles_path : . . /. . /. roles
Don't miss that we are setting the Test Kitchen suite name to be prod in the suites: stanza.
We're using a special suite name in this chapter because eventually there are going to be two
suites, one for each environment, and we need a way of telling them apart. The suite for pro-
duction will have the suite name prod .
