How to find out where Chef constructs are coming from via Chef-Shell and Test Kitchen through Pry

Chef-Shell.rb

Test-Kitchen.rb

Step one:

Put require 'pry';binding.pry somewhere in your recipe. For example in one of the resources:

directory 'bla' do
  require 'pry';binding.pry
  owner 'root'
  group 'root'
  mode '0755'
  action :create
  recursive true
end

Step two:
Converge the instance to get cookbooks into TK
Fetch out the command line to execute inside instance.
$ kitchen converge -l debug
...
...
--> sudo -E /opt/chef/bin/chef-solo --config /tmp/kitchen/solo.rb --log_level auto --no-color --json-attributes /tmp/kitchen/dna.json  --force-formatter
')
...
..
CTRL+C

$ kitchen login
<paste the command from above> - it will trigger the break point interactively. With TK you don't have control of the session. Unless you use remote pry but I was never able to get it to work consistently, so this is much quicker.

vagrant@test-node:~$ sudo -E /opt/chef/bin/chef-solo --config /tmp/kitchen/solo.rb --log_level auto --no-color --json-attributes /tmp/kitchen/dna.json  --force-formatter
')
