Run Conformance Tests ¶

Tanzu Community Edition has an integrated Sonobuoy plugin. The Tanzu CLI uses the conformance command (powered by Sonobuoy) to run tests against clusters. Use the tanzu conformance command to run diagnostic tests to help you to understand the state of a cluster. The tanzu conformance runs the CNCF conformance tests by default. For more information, see Sonobuoy.

Before you Begin ¶

Ensure the Tanzu CLI is installed.

   The following commands are available:
