ChannelReceivesSomething (formerly WaitForChannel) originally was
located in the helpers package.
This move was done to remove a cyclic dependency with the nomand package.
Previously the stderr fifo would not be removed, leaving unwanted
artifacts from the execution behind. We now remove the stderr fifo
after the command finished.
When running a command interactively, we previously would get stdout
and stderr both served on stdout by Nomad. To circumvent this issue,
we now start a separate execution inside the allocation to split
both streams.
For unit tests, this mocks the runners Execute method with a
customizable function that operates on the request, streams and exit
channel to simulate a real execution.
End-to-end tests are moved to the tests/e2e_tests folder. The tests
folder allows us to have shared helper functions for all tests in a
separate package (tests) that is not included in the non-test build.
This also adds one second of delay before each end-to-end test case by
using the TestSetup method of suite. By slowing down test execution,
this gives Nomad time to create new allocations when a test requested a
runner. Another solution could be to increase the scale of the job to
have enough allocations for all end-to-end tests.
