The Helm Hub has now migrated to the Artifact Hub. Details are available in the blog announcement at https://helm.sh/blog/helm-hub-moving-to-artifact-hub/ If there are any questions or comments there

My understanding is that Terratest was designed around testing deployments and predates any testing code in Helm. I'm not on the terratest email distribution list so I don't know if they are even

The Helm project has decided to deprecate the Helm Hub and redirect people to the Artifact Hub. We have been tracking this work for some time. We are now at the point where the redirect will go into

I wanted to share that we have made a small governance change to Helm. There was a section in the governance that pertained to the initial election of org maintainers. That event happened a couple

@Matt: I am trying to understand different test cases that can be tested via the helm test. I now agree that we need these tests but I was unsure how can help/aid my chart consumers. Most of the helm

Keep in mind that there is a tool called Terratest https://github.com/gruntwork-io/terratest that is designed to test your deployments. It works with a wide array of deployment tools, including

Thank you Matt, you always share prompt and correct reflections!! I'm very happy with the above explanation, sounds reasonable. :) I agree that chart consumers (automation/human beings) are different

Teja, This is a good question. There are a couple things that come to mind for uses of Helm tests. Helm tests enable a chart author to package tests in a chart and ship them to a chart consumer. The

Hi, I want to understand why we need helm tests? I have my CI automation which deploys all of my charts and checks if the feature is working or not. I don't understand why I need "helm tests" in the

This has been shared previously but we've come to realize that not everyone has noticed. On November 13th of this year the stable and incubator chart repos will be marked obsolete and will be going

The Helm Hub has made it far easier to find charts that are distributed around the Internet. General purpose search engines don't make it easy and the Helm Hub, being Kubernetes and charts specific,

Hi Michelle, It was great to have had a chance to work with you. All the best in your new adventures. Regards, Martin

Hey Helmettes, It's been a pleasure being a core maintainer on the Helm project since it's initial release Helm Classic (v1) in 2015 and probably the coolest experience of my career. I am officially

Not sure where you got the information that the atomic flag doesn’t exist in Helm 3. I just checked, and it’s been there since Helm 3.0.0, and it’s present in

Hi, Does anyone have ideas about supporting automatic rollback in terms of failures? Over slack, people recommend different sets of tools. What is the recommended approach or best feasible approach to

Hi Teja! Both are completely valid option. People generally like the rollback commands as it's rolling your kubernetes manifests back to a known good version, therefore if there was an error

Hi, I was looking at downgrading software on failure. I wonder if I need to run upgrade an older version or use the "helm rollback" command. Well, I don't have enough arguments about why I need to use
