"The file does not have the expected owner" (expected "root", actual: nil)

[tknerr]

Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I get this error where I'd expect the tests to pass:

  1) Failure:
test_0001_should_create_the_root_owned_tmp_foo_file(foo::default) [/opt/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/minitest-chef-handler-0.6.1/lib/minitest-chef-handler/resources.rb:33]:
The file does not have the expected owner.
Expected: "root"
  Actual: nil

My recipe looks like that:

file "/tmp/foo" do
  action :create
  owner "root"
  group "root"
  mode "0644"
  content "hey, I'm running on #{node['platform']}!"
end

And the minitest like that:

require 'minitest/spec'

describe 'foo::default' do

  include MiniTest::Chef::Assertions
  include MiniTest::Chef::Context
  include MiniTest::Chef::Resources

  it 'should create the root-owned "/tmp/foo" file' do
    file("/tmp/foo").must_exist.with(:owner, "root").and(:group, "root").and(:mode, "0644")
  end
end

Am I doing something plain wrong or should the test above pass?

I'm using minitest-chef-handler from within the minitest-handler 0.1.0 cookbook. The node to be converged runs Chef 0.10.10 with 1.9.2p290 system Ruby.

P.S.: my workstation from which I provision the node using Vagrant is a Windows 7 box, if that is of interest.

The file is actually created with the correct owner/group and permissions:

vagrant@foo-vm:~$ ll /tmp/foo
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 27 Aug 28 09:39 /tmp/foo

Hi Torben,

This is a known bug with minitest-chef-handler and Chef 0.10.10. See #23 and #27 for more detail.

The related Chef ticket is here and a fix will be in Chef 10.14:
http://tickets.opscode.com/browse/CHEF-3235

Cheers,

Andrew.

Good to know, thanks Andrew!

Closing the issue then because it's a dup of #23 and #27
