BOUNDARY WORKER HELM OVERHAULS TEST MATRIX, NOMAD AUTOSCALER SHIPS JSONENCODE SUPPORT

By RepoJournal · Filed · About HashiCorp

Boundary's Kubernetes validation just got real - switching from KIND binaries to actual versioned nodes means the chart now proves it works on the K8s versions you're actually running.

The big structural win comes from boundary-worker-helm [1], which ditched a validation theater approach that downloaded KIND binaries without actually testing against different Kubernetes API server versions. Now each CI run targets a specific kindest/node image pinned to real K8s releases and runs them in parallel, so you know the chart ships tested on 1.26, 1.27, and beyond. On the policy authoring side, nomad-autoscaler landed jsonencode support [2] for file-based policies, which means users writing APM queries can stop hand-escaping JSON strings and write readable HCL objects instead. The Instana plugin integration just got less painful. All three Nomad ecosystem projects pushed nightly snapshots [3][4][5], so if you're running bleeding edge, pull and test before the next stable cut. Compliance automation also caught up with boundary-worker-helm PR template updates [6][7] - standard HCP boundary compliance stuff, review and merge to stay in good standing.
