Original Pull Request: https://github.com/quamotion/dotnet-packaging/pull/70

State: closed
Merged: Yes

This PR adds integration tests for dotnet-package using Docker containers on Travis.

It builds on the work from @clemensv in #65.
The idea is that we use a couple of demo/reference projects, run dotnet rpm/dotnet deb for the most important Distro's, and then install the package inside a Docker container.

Currently, there are three projects under /demo:

An ASP.NET Core application
A self-contained CLI application
A framework-dependent CLI application

Docker test are implemented only for the self-contained CLI application, on a subset of distros (CentOS + Debian).

The tests:

Will build a Docker image based off a Dockefile, which installs the RPM/deb package and makes sure all files have been installed in the target container (by diffing the file list against a reference list)
Will run that Docker image, which will run the CLI/ASP.NET Core app, and thereby making sure the result is actually 'runnable'. For the CLI apps, at this moment, this means that 'Hello, World' should have been printed out.

I also looked at getting this up and running on AppVeyor, but that would require premium VMs, something which is not available under AppVeyor's open source plan.
