Summary

Currently the C#/.NET driver is only built and tested on Windows for Astrolabe. However, Kind requires Linux Docker containers to run in. The Evergreen Windows hosts do not (currently) have a VM available, so there's no way to run Kind on Evergreen Windows hosts right now.

The C#/.NET driver does support Linux (check out the build script here), so the simplest fix seems to be to add a Linux task for testing the C#/.NET driver against Kind using Astrolabe.

Motivation

Who is the affected end user?

Astrolabe devs, users of the C#/.NET driver.

How does this affect the end user?

Astrolabe devs can't currently test the C#/.NET driver against Kind (Kubernetes). As a result, there is no test coverage for containerized MongoDB deployments for the C#/.NET driver.

How likely is it that this problem or use case will occur?

N/A

If the problem does occur, what are the consequences and how severe are they?

No visibility into possible unexpected behavior of the C#/.NET driver when connected to MongoDB deployments in Kubernetes.

Is this issue urgent?

No.

Is this ticket required by a downstream team?

No.

Is this ticket only for tests?

No.
