Heloo, i am running test suit on beat version 6.4.1 and getting some error. **Steps:** 1. Clone beats source code from git 2. Download and set GO lang and GOPATH. 3. Run `make testsuite` command. **o/p:** > ``` > command [go test -cover -coverprofile /tmp/gotestcover-206680631 github.com/elastic/beats/libbeat/processors/add_kubernetes_metadata]: exit status 2 > # github.com/elastic/beats/libbeat/processors/add_kubernetes_metadata > /usr/local/go/src/github.com/elastic/beats/libbeat/processors/add_kubernetes_metadata/kubernetes.go:106: Debug call has arguments but no formatting directives > /usr/local/go/src/github.com/elastic/beats/libbeat/processors/add_kubernetes_metadata/kubernetes.go:115: Err format %t has arg &kubernetes.Pod{} of wrong type *github.com/elastic/beats/vendor/github.com/ericchiang/k8s/apis/core/v1.Pod > FAIL github.com/elastic/beats/libbeat/processors/add_kubernetes_metadata [build failed] > ? github.com/elastic/beats/libbeat/publisher/queue [no test files] > ? github.com/elastic/beats/libbeat/publisher/queue/queuetest [no test files] > ? github.com/elastic/beats/libbeat/service [no test files] > ok github.com/elastic/beats/libbeat/publisher/testing 0.007s coverage: 53.3% of statements > ok github.com/elastic/beats/libbeat/publisher/pipeline 0.014s coverage: 6.1% of statements > ok github.com/elastic/beats/libbeat/template 0.007s coverage: 54.8% of statements > ok github.com/elastic/beats/libbeat/testing 0.007s coverage: 87.3% of statements > ? github.com/elastic/beats/libbeat/tests/compose [no test files] > ? github.com/elastic/beats/libbeat/version [no test files] > ok github.com/elastic/beats/libbeat/testing/mapvaltest 0.009s coverage: 100.0% of statements > ? github.com/elastic/beats/libbeat/tests/docker [no test files] > ok github.com/elastic/beats/libbeat/publisher/queue/memqueue 1.883s coverage: 76.8% of statements > ok github.com/elastic/beats/libbeat/outputs/logstash 10.158s coverage: 73.0% of statements > ok github.com/elastic/beats/libbeat/publisher/queue/spool 4.888s coverage: 61.9% of statements > test failed > make[2]: *** [unit-tests] Error 1 > make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/gocode/src/github.com/elastic/beats/libbeat' > make[1]: *** [testsuite] Error 2 > make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/gocode/src/github.com/elastic/beats/libbeat' > make: *** [testsuite] Error 1 > > ``` Test suite is failed.

Is there a specific reason you run on 6.4 and not 7.1 for example? Seeing some of the errors it could be that you use a different Golang version then was used for developing 6.4? ---

Hi @ruflin, Thank you for your reply! Actually we are using 6.4. for production environment and there is no plan to upgrade the same. We have some requirement to run test suite on this version and i'm using go version as mentioned in the doc and getting errors. > ``` > # git branch > * 6.4 > master > # go version > go version go1.10.3 linux/amd64 > > ``` **Error:** > ``` > Step 15/31 : RUN /download.sh $DOWNLOAD_URL $ELASTIC_VERSION $CACHE_BUST && rm /download.sh > ---> Running in e27cd3602fd4 > > Removing intermediate container e27cd3602fd4 > ERROR: Service 'elasticsearch' failed to build: The command '/bin/sh -c /download.sh $DOWNLOAD_URL $ELASTIC_VERSION $CACHE_BUST && rm /download.sh' returned a non-zero code: 28 > make[2]: *** [build-image] Error 1 > make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/go/work/src/github.com/elastic/beats/libbeat' > make[1]: *** [testsuite] Error 2 > make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/go/work/src/github.com/elastic/beats/libbeat' > make: *** [testsuite] Error 1 > > ``` Please help me to resolve this problem. ---

Hi @ruflin, one more thing i observed related to this. **In 6.4.1:** [https://github.com/elastic/beats/tree/v6.4.1/testing/environments/docker/elasticsearch](https://github.com/elastic/beats/tree/v6.4.1/testing/environments/docker/elasticsearch) as elasticsearch folder is available. **in 6.5.1:** [https://github.com/elastic/beats/tree/v6.5.1/testing/environments/docker](https://github.com/elastic/beats/tree/v6.5.1/testing/environments/docker) as elasticsearch folder is not available. **Is there any specific reason to remove this in 6.5.x branch??** ---

In 6.5 we switched over to the official docker images for testing which did not require us anymore to have all the correct setup. Looking at the error it seems for some reason the docker image does not built. It fails on the download step so I assume some link got out of date. The download url is taken from here: [https://github.com/elastic/beats/blob/6.4/testing/environments/args.yml#L9](https://github.com/elastic/beats/blob/6.4/testing/environments/args.yml#L9) A SNAPSHOT was used for testing and SNAPSHOT are removed after a few days from the storage. That is probably the reason it does not work anymore. I would recommend you to adjust the args.yml file to use a released version, you must also adjust the DOWNLOAD\_URL part. ---
