QA (public) » openQA Project (public) » openQA Tests (public) » Containers and images

In container tests we are purely testing containers with firewall disabled.

QE shall have at least 1 test to check the functionality of containers with firewall running to avoid these kind of problems.

At least, this use case should be covered:
1) Enable firewall
2) Install docker/podman
3) Create containers
4) Ping/netcat host and outside world from the container

In some cases this works out of the box, but I have the experience that firewall might need to be restarted.

We should also check the iptables rules that are created when starting docker service. For example I have seen some warning messages like this in the firewall log:

The test should also double check that the iptable rules/forwarding are correct.
