Open Source
An extensible test suite that validates your Posit Team deployment is installed correctly and functioning properly.
Tests create, verify, and clean up their own content. They never modify existing customer data.
Tests are sequenced so failures localize problems. Prerequisites run first; product tests follow.
The suite avoids tight coupling to product client libraries. API calls use plain HTTP.
Add site-specific tests without modifying the VIP source tree using extension directories.
uv tool install posit-vip
vip install
vip verify --connect-url https://connect.example.com
You can review the output from the run on the command line or generate a Quarto report with vip report.
VIP tests Connect, Workbench, and Package Manager using open source testing software: pytest-bdd with Gherkin feature files and Playwright for browser automation.
