I have a module in which parameterized classes inherit regular (non- parameterized) 'params' class. I am writing RSpec tests for this module and would like to make sure that required variables have been declared in the params class. Also, is it possible to write RSpec test to make sure that these variables/parameters are accepted by the required parameterized classes? Any pointers will be really helpful.
Funnily enough I was asking a similar thing on IRC the other day but didn't get much luck. We're implementing Hiera across modules that require significant amounts of variables. We have a lot of environments (>20) and we often get problems where someone introduces a new variable, adds it to a template and tests it in dev but dont add a default, or add it to each environment, therefore catalog compilation fails in non-dev environments.
Ideally I'd like to be able to catch this with rspec-puppet but can't see an easy way to say "class bar should have variable foo and it shouldn't be undefined", or something when sourcing variables from other classes or hiera.
