Adventures in Conformance
summary
Conformance proves which Kubernetes behaviors actually work: conformance drives portability, TestGrid runs conformance hourly, and 77 vendors certified against the suite. The team measures concrete gaps with API snoop (API endpoint coverage, found 13 missing endpoints in one proxy test) and merges component code coverage with go fridge to show only ~28.5% of lines hit by conformance vs ~33.5% by release tests. Requirements added: multi-node clusters, air‑gapped operation, no root, parallelizable, and optional profiles for Windows or cloud features.
