SIG Cloud Provider Deep Dive: Testing Cloud Controller Managers
Talkat KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe 2025 · on Wednesday, 2025-04-02· at 15:15· Level 3 | ICC Capital Suite 10-12·
summary
SIG Cloud Provider reports over a million lines removed from in-tree cloud code and replaces the old SSH tunnel with an API server network proxy reference implementation. A three-step plan adds provider on-ramps, refactors end-to-end tests into modular interfaces (example: network interface drop test implemented per-provider), and funds ongoing maintenance. Proofs of concept link per-provider repos, Prow, and CSI-style shared tests; historical data shows regressions falling (month‑4 counts from ~16 to ~8).
