kitchen-ssh

ssh and ssh_gzip driver for test-kitchen for any running server with an ip address.

As well as ssh it supports a second driver called ssh_gzip that will also gzip file before transfer which can provide a big performance improvement when alot of files are transfered.

server must be created and destroyed natively (e.g. via cloudformation, heat, or cloud or virtualization console). specify driver parameters

• hostname
• port
• username
• password
• sudo
• ssh_key
• forward_agent

NOTE: ssh driver is compatibile with test-kitchen 1.4 while ssh_gzip has legacy driver compatiability with test-kitchen 1.4

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'kitchen-ssh', group: :integration

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install kitchen-ssh

In your .kitchen.yml file set driver to be 'ssh' or 'ssh_gzip'.

##Example

driver:
  name: ssh
  hostname: your-ip
  port: 22

  ssh_key: /path/to/id_rsa

or
