Zhengchao An ca1463a6c5 ci: run e2e smoke subset via nextest e2e-smoke profile (#4674)
ci: run e2e smoke subset via nextest e2e-smoke profile (backlog#1149 ci-4)

The e2e-tests job previously ran a single test (delete_marker_migration
_semantics) out of ~400 in the e2e_test crate. Define a nextest
profile.e2e-smoke whose default-filter selects 17 fast single-node
dependency-free modules (63 tests) and run it in the job, reusing the
downloaded debug binary. The profile is the single wiring mechanism for
e2e tests in CI; admission criteria live in crates/e2e_test/README.md,
and docs/testing/e2e-suite-inventory.md records authoritative per-module
counts from cargo nextest list.

e2e_test

End-to-end test suite for RustFS. Tests spawn a real rustfs binary (see src/common.rs) and drive it with the AWS SDK.

This README currently only documents the CI smoke subset (backlog#1149 ci-4). The full contributor guide — how to add a case, fixture helpers, #[ignore] semantics, harness topologies — is tracked as backlog#1153 infra-10 and will extend this file.

CI smoke subset (--profile e2e-smoke)

A subset of this crate runs on every PR via the e2e-tests job:

cargo nextest run --profile e2e-smoke -p e2e_test

The selection lives in .config/nextest.toml under [profile.e2e-smoke] (default-filter). That filter is the single wiring mechanism for e2e tests in CI — extend it (or add a sibling profile) instead of adding new e2e jobs to ci.yml.

Admission criteria for the smoke subset

A test module may join the smoke filter only if every test in it is:

  1. Fast — single-digit seconds per test; the whole subset must keep the e2e-tests job ≤ 20 minutes.
  2. Single-node — spawns its own server via RustFSTestEnvironment/start_rustfs_server on a random port with an isolated temp dir. No RustFSTestClusterEnvironment, no fixed ports.
  3. Dependency-free — no pre-started server at localhost:9000, no Vault, no fixed protocol ports. Tools that may be absent on the runner (e.g. awscurl) are acceptable only when the test skips gracefully with a visible log line (see bucket_policy_check_test.rs).
  4. Not #[ignore] — ignored tests are activation work (backlog#1149 ci-13 / backlog#1148 ilm-3), not smoke candidates.

Note on #[serial]: nextest runs each test in its own process, so serial_test's in-process mutex does not serialize across tests there (see the header of .config/nextest.toml). Smoke tests must therefore be parallel-safe by construction (random port + isolated temp dir), which the current subset is.

Authoritative test inventory

docs/testing/e2e-suite-inventory.md records the per-module test counts as listed by cargo nextest list -p e2e_test. Regenerate it when adding or moving e2e tests so acceptance numbers in the test-strategy issues (backlog#1147#1155) stay auditable.
