AFT-reporting-AWSKinesis

an Automated Functional Testing (AFT) library providing logging to an AWS Kinesis Firehose endpoint for any TestResult objects logged via the aft-core.ReportingManager

Installation

> npm i aft-reporting-awskinesis

Configuration

to send values to AWS Kinesis Firehose endpoints you must specify the AWS Credentials, the AWS Region Endpoint and the AWS Kinesis Delivery Stream. These take the following form in your aftconfig.json:

{
    "plugins": [
      {"name": "kinesis-reporting-plugin", "searchDir": "./node_modules/"}
    ],
    "KinesisReportingPluginConfig": {
        "logLevel": "info",
        "region": "us-west-1",
        "deliveryStream": "your-frehose-delivery-stream",
        "batch": true,
        "batchSize": 10,
        "sendStrategy": "logsandresults",
        "assumeRoleArn": "optional-iam-role-needed-for-sending-to-firehose",
        "assumeRoleDuration": 900
    }
}
  • logLevel - an optional LogLevel to be used by this plugin (defaults to value set in AftConfig.logLevel or warn if unset)
  • region - a string containing the AWS region where the Kinesis Firehose stream is located. values like eu-west-1 or us-west-2 are expected.
  • deliveryStream - a string containing the name of the Kinesis Firehose stream to send through. If using Elasticsearch as your back-end storage, this would be the Elasticsearch index to use.
  • batch - an optional boolean indicating whether logs should be batched before forwarding to Kinesis Firehose (defaults to true)
  • batchSize - an optional number representing the number of log records to batch before sending (defaults to 10)
  • sendStrategy - an optional string of logsandresults, logsonly or resultsonly that controls sending of log messages and results (defaults to logsandresults)
  • assumeRoleArn - an optional string containing a valid AWS IAM Role ARN that should be assumed following acquring the AWS Credentials so that the plugin can send to the Firehose stream
  • assumeRoleDuration - an optional number containing the number of seconds the assumed role should remain valid (defaults to 900)

NOTE:

the AWS Credentials are first attempted to be read from AFT Configuration and if no value is specified then the following are checked:

  • Environment Variables: AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_SESSION_TOKEN
  • EC2 Metadata: also known as instance profile credentials
  • Shared Ini File: read from the host system
  • ECS Credentials: similar to the EC2 Metadata, but on ECS
  • Process Credentials: any credentials set on the current process

Format of log records

the log record that is sent to your AWS Kinesis Firehose endpoint will have the following format:

message logs

{
    "created": 1655289028279,
    "version": "11.2.1",
    "machineInfo": {
        "ip": "234.9.10.11",
        "name": "CETH-ARG-WIN10",
        "user": "SYSTEM"
    },
    "log": {
        "name": "if used with an AftTest this will be the 'description' or 'Test IDs' or a GUID",
        "level": "warn",
        "message": "this is the actual message being logged",
        "data": [
            "an array of optional values",
            {"foo": "bar", "baz": true}
        ]
    }
}
  • created - the elapsed milliseconds since the epoch representing when this log record was created
  • version - the current version of the KinesisReportingPlugin
  • machineInfo - an aft-core.MachineInfoData object containing the following:
    • ip - a string of the machine's IP address
    • name - a string of the machine's name
    • user - a string of the currently logged in user who executed the tests
  • log - the LogMessageData object
    • name - the name passed to this plugin when loaded from the ReportingManager
    • level - a string value from one of the aft-core.LoggingLevel values based on the level of the message being logged
    • message - the string being logged by some component
    • data - an array of anything added to the log function call after the message
