Terrifying Terraforming Tricks To Test TFE's Tenacity
This is a very simple provider that exists to do synthetic stress testing against Terraform Enterprise installations. It is very WIP and very ill advised to actually use. It does simple things like allocate and hold on to memory and stress out CPUs for durations. This is an unpublished module and at the moment it is only used for sideloading into local runs or using the terraform.d/ dir to load a Linux version of it into TFE (other methods would be to use bundles etc).
At the moment only a couple things are supported, resource_stress_memory and resource_stress_cpu. In the future things like disk/state file stresses will be added as needed but this is a good start.
Usage
Don't.
But if you must
resource "stress_cpu" "why-are-you-doing-this" {
duration = 300 # How long to keep the load up in Seconds
}
resource "stress_memory" "sad-ram-dot-emoji" {
duration = 300 # How long to hold the memory
size = 128 # Memory to allocate in MB
}
resource "stress_statefile" "this-can-crash-tf" {
count = 64 # adjust count to adjust bloat, but careful this is not linear for the RAM consumed
size = 2 # 2MB, do not go over 3 as there is a size limit for setting attributes over grpc of ~4MB
}
