Running integration tests

Kubernetes

Kubernetes tests run against a Kubernetes API server, and are enabled by the DEX_KUBECONFIG environment variable:

$ export DEX_KUBECONFIG=~/.kube/config
$ go test -v -i ./storage/kubernetes
$ go test -v ./storage/kubernetes

These tests can be executed locally using docker by running the following script:

$ ./scripts/test-k8s.sh

Postgres

Running database tests locally require:

• A systemd based Linux distro.
• A recent version of rkt installed.

The standup.sh script in the SQL directory is used to run databases in containers with systemd daemonizing the process.

$ sudo ./storage/sql/standup.sh create postgres
Starting postgres. To view progress run

  journalctl -fu dex-postgres

Running as unit dex-postgres.service.
To run tests export the following environment variables:

  export DEX_POSTGRES_DATABASE=postgres; export DEX_POSTGRES_USER=postgres; export DEX_POSTGRES_PASSWORD=postgres; export DEX_POSTGRES_HOST=172.16.28.3:5432

Exporting the variables will cause the database tests to be run, rather than skipped.

$ # sqlite3 takes forever to compile, be sure to install test dependencies
$ go test -v -i ./storage/sql
$ go test -v ./storage/sql

When you're done, tear down the unit using the standup.sh script.

$ sudo ./storage/sql/standup.sh destroy postgres

LDAP

The LDAP integration tests require OpenLDAP installed on the host machine. To run them, use go test:

export DEX_LDAP_TESTS=1
go test -v ./connector/ldap/

To quickly stand up a LDAP server for development, see the LDAP "Getting started" example. This also requires OpenLDAP installed on the host.

To stand up a containerized LDAP server run the OpenLDAP docker image:

$ sudo docker run --hostname ldap.example.org --name openldap-container --detach osixia/openldap:1.1.6

By default TLS is enabled and a certificate is created with the container hostname, which in this case is "ldap.example.org". It will create an empty LDAP for the company Example Inc. and the domain example.org. By default the admin has the password admin.

Add new users and groups (sample .ldif file included at the end):

$ sudo docker exec openldap-container ldapadd -x -D "cn=admin,dc=example,dc=org" -w admin -f <path to .ldif> -h ldap.example.org -ZZ

Verify that the added entries are in your directory with ldapsearch :

$ sudo docker exec openldap-container ldapsearch -x -h localhost -b dc=example,dc=org -D "cn=admin,dc=example,dc=org" -w admin

The .ldif file should contain seed data. Example file contents:

dn: cn=Test1,dc=example,dc=org
objectClass: organizationalRole
cn: Test1

dn: cn=Test2,dc=example,dc=org
objectClass: organizationalRole
cn: Test2

dn: ou=groups,dc=example,dc=org
ou: groups
objectClass: top
objectClass: organizationalUnit

dn: cn=tstgrp,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=org
objectClass: top
objectClass: groupOfNames
member: cn=Test1,dc=example,dc=org
cn: tstgrp

SAML

Okta

The Okta identity provider supports free accounts for developers to test their implementation against. This document describes configuring an Okta application to test dex's SAML connector.

First, sign up for a developer account. Then, to create a SAML application:

• Go to the admin screen.
• Click "Add application"
• Click "Create New App"
• Choose "SAML 2.0" and press "Create"
• Configure SAML
  • Enter http://127.0.0.1:5556/dex/callback for "Single sign on URL"
  • Enter http://127.0.0.1:5556/dex/callback for "Audience URI (SP Entity ID)"
  • Under "ATTRIBUTE STATEMENTS (OPTIONAL)" add an "email" and "name" attribute. The values should be something like user:email and user:firstName, respectively.
  • Under "GROUP ATTRIBUTE STATEMENTS (OPTIONAL)" add a "groups" attribute. Use the "Regexp" filter .*.

After the application's created, assign yourself to the app.

• "Applications" > "Applications"
• Click on your application then under the "People" tab press the "Assign to People" button and add yourself.

At the app, go to the "Sign On" tab and then click "View Setup Instructions". Use those values to fill out the following connector in examples/config-dev.yaml.

connectors:
- type: saml
  id: saml
  name: Okta
  config:
    ssoURL: ( "Identity Provider Single Sign-On URL" )
    caData: ( base64'd value of "X.509 Certificate" )
    redirectURI: http://127.0.0.1:5556/dex/callback
    usernameAttr: name
    emailAttr: email
    groupsAttr: groups

Start both dex and the example app, and try logging in (requires not requesting a refresh token).
