What this PR does / why we need it:
Currently, the
helm uninstall
command does not use a--wait
flag, unlike thehelm install
andhelm upgrade
commands. This can lead to issues, specifically withct install --upgrade
, where certain resources (in our case, namespaces other than the release namespace) have not yet been fully deleted from the kubernetes cluster, despite thehelm uninstall
command having exited successfully. This is causing the subsequenthelm install
to fail.By forcing
helm uninstall
to wait, these race conditions should not be an issue.Special notes for your reviewer:
We considered using
helm-set-args '--wait'
to achieve this, but thehelm test
command does not recognize the--wait
flag and therefore fails. A less clean but less heavy-handed approach could be to strip the--wait
flag before runninghelm test
.
