A shell-based tool that spins up multi-node Kubernetes test clusters using kubeadm and Docker-in-Docker, aimed at Kubernetes developers and CI environments. It is deprecated and end-of-life, with kind recommended as its replacement.
Use cases
- spin up a local multi-node kubernetes cluster for testing
- run kubernetes e2e tests in CI without nested virtualization
- test kubernetes builds from source against a cluster
- develop kubernetes extensions against a disposable cluster
- run a k8s test cluster on travis ci
When to choose
- you must maintain a legacy CI pipeline already using it
- you need to reproduce issues on kubernetes 1.12-1.15 specifically
When to avoid
- starting any new project - use kind instead
- you are an application developer wanting a local cluster - use minikube
- you need recent kubernetes versions
- your docker storage driver is btrfs
