TL;DR

Add live BDD checks for event-ledger on a running self-managed stack, with generic HTTP request steps to drive them. Also bump the event-ledger chart pin from 0.5.0 to 0.6.0 (image 0.17.2).

Additional Details (optional for docs, build, test, refactor, ci, chore, style, and revert PRs)

  • Problem: event-ledger has no post-deployment checks in the BDD suite. Validate Event Ledger deployment in the self-managed stack #170 asks for local and CI checks for readiness, health, routes, and API flows.
  • New HTTP steps in tests/bdd (documented in PLAN.md): queue request headers, send a request, assert status, body, and JSON fields, poll until the body contains text, and export a JSON field to an env var. The steps use an in-process HTTP client, so header values never reach the command logs. A header can take the admin token from the nvcf-cli state file of the selected config.
  • New features/event-ledger.feature, run by TestEventLedger (all scenarios) and TestEventLedgerReadOnly (no GPU needed):
    • the pod is rolled out and the HTTPRoute is accepted, and /health returns 200
    • SIS has the event-ledger messaging flags set
    • missing or invalid credentials are rejected
    • V1 and V2 endpoints return 404
    • a read-scoped API key can query stats and events, and malformed queries return 400
    • a read-scoped API key is refused on both write routes (/v3/ledger/cloudevents and /v3/ledger/k8s-events)
    • a write-scoped API key can write a CloudEvent, passes the scope check on /v3/ledger/k8s-events (an empty body then gets 400), and is refused on the stats and events reads
    • a function deployment produces SIS events that can be read back, and undeploy produces the destroyed event
  • Chart pin: 0.6.0 carries the 0.17.2 image, which includes route scope enforcement for API key (fix(event-ledger): enforce route scopes for api-key requests in self-managed mode #2302) and JWT (fix(event-ledger): authorize JWTs with route scopes #2329) requests. The scope scenarios check that behavior.
  • Limitations:
    • The feature runs against an already-running single-cluster local stack. It does not install anything and is not wired into CI.
    • gRPC and task API flows from Validate Event Ledger deployment in the self-managed stack #170 are not covered.
    • NVCA events are not covered because the NVCA collector is disabled in this stack.
    • The k8s-events checks send an empty body, because the HTTP steps cannot build an OTLP protobuf payload. They check where the request is stopped, not a successful OTLP write.
    • API keys are created through the API Keys service directly, because nvcf-cli cannot generate event-ledger keys yet.
    • The lifecycle scenario needs GPU capacity and image pull access.
    • The write scenario posts one fixed event, so reruns update a single row.

For the Reviewer

  • tests/bdd/steps/http_steps.go and tests/bdd/harness/http.go: header values and the admin token must stay out of logs and step output.
  • The lifecycle scenario in tests/bdd/features/event-ledger.feature: events are stored per context, so it reads stats first and then queries events with the context stats reports.
  • The chart pin bump is bundled here. It can be split into its own PR if you prefer.

For QA (optional for docs, build, test, refactor, ci, chore, style, and revert PRs)

  • Live run against a single-cluster stack with the event-ledger chart at 0.6.0: go test -run '^TestEventLedger$' passed 8 of 8 scenarios (193 steps). TestEventLedgerReadOnly passed 7 of 7 (137 steps).
  • Local: go test -short ./... and the linter pass in tests/bdd, and git diff --check is clean.
  • make -C deploy/stacks/self-managed test passed with the same pin change before this branch was rebuilt on current main. It was not rerun on this branch.
  • QA needed: a rerun on a maintained environment is welcome.

Add in-process HTTP steps to the BDD harness (headers, send, poll, status,
body and JSON field assertions, export to env) so features can exercise
service APIs directly without routing secrets through the command runner.
Add an event-ledger feature that checks the ledger is deployed, routed
through the shared gateway, and fed by SIS on a running ncp-local stack.

Event-ledger stores events per (namespace, context). Reading a
namespace's events without a context only returns context-less events,
so the lifecycle scenario never saw the events SIS writes for a
deployment.

Poll stats, which list every context in the namespace, then read events
with the context stats reports. Wait up to five minutes for the
instance to reach running, and keep the wiring test's fake server in
step with the context-based reads.

API key route scope enforcement shipped in event-ledger 0.17.1, so a
read-scoped key is now rejected on the write route. Remove the
known-defect tag and its stale comment, and let the read-only live entry
point run the scenario: a rejected write stores no event.

Pick up the 0.17.2 appVersion/image published in chart v0.6.0, which

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 9bdc5

The lifecycle scenario can leave a GPU deployment and API key behind if it fails before cleanup. Add failure cleanup before merging.

| --backend | ncp-local |
| --regions | us-west-1 |

A failure partway through the lifecycle scenario leaves the GPU deployment and the read key behind.

The live runner sets StopOnFailure: true. Undeploy runs only at Line 292, and the key DELETE runs only at Line 308. Suppose the 300-second InstanceReady poll or a later assertion fails. The function then stays deployed with --min-instances 1 on an H100. The read key also stays valid for one day. On a single-cluster stack, the leaked instance can block GPU capacity for the next run. Add cleanup that runs after a failure. One option is a teardown hook in the steps layer, triggered by a step like "the function selected by NVCF CLI is undeployed at teardown". Another option is to record the deployment in the suite Ledger so Teardown removes it.

Add the positive control for the route scope checks: a key with only
fnds:createEvent is accepted on the CloudEvents write route and refused
on the stats and events read routes. This shows the existing 401 and 403
cases are specific rejections and not an outage. The event is fixed, so
reruns update one row.

The wiring test's fake server now tells write keys from read keys.

Signed-off-by: Shelley Shen <shelleys@nvidia.com>
The cloudevents and k8s-events write routes are registered separately,
so check each one: a read-scoped key is refused on both, and a
write-scoped key passes the scope check on k8s-events (it then fails on
the empty body with a 400, which writes nothing).

Constrain the fake to validate the CloudEvents route.

The current positive step uses the correct route, so this is a wiring-coverage gap rather than an incorrect response. A future path typo could still receive the accepted response because this branch accepts any writer-authorized POST.
