Description

[!NOTE]
Moved from rstudio/platform-team#413

Context

Connect images have goss tests but coverage could be expanded, particularly for content execution and runtime integration.

Current goss test templates

Current coverage

Tests check: users, groups, packages, ports, processes, files, and commands.

Potential expansion areas

  • Connect API health endpoint verification
  • R, Python, and Quarto runtime availability within the container
  • Content execution smoke tests (deploy and run basic content)
  • ODBC driver installation and configuration
  • Connect startup and configuration loading
  • License activation and status
  • Content-init sidecar container readiness and transfer verification

Related: #458 (centralize common goss patterns)
