Description

The tests for Posit Connect rely on a pre-provisioned admin account. When running tests to validate an ephemeral Connect instance, like one started in a container, we generally can't assume an account has been provisioned yet. It could be useful to have an optional workflow in Connect's tests to create that first account with some user provided credentials prior to executing remaining tests.

Research direction

Start by locating the Posit Connect test entry point and reading how the suite currently assumes an admin account exists. Define an optional path that accepts user-provided credentials, provisions the first account before the remaining tests, and leaves the existing pre-provisioned workflow unchanged; verify both paths against an ephemeral Connect instance.
