summary

Shows Kyverno Chainsaw running live demos that create resources, run apply/assert/cleanup steps, and produce JUnit reports usable in CI. Uses Chainsaw to validate operator behavior and helm upgrades, finds 850 generated assertions across clusters and surfaces only 17 real failures when an upstream Alertmanager chart renames a PVC — so tests catch concrete breakages. Includes a test-case generator that writes declarative assertions, cleans up applied resources, and exports machine-readable results for pipelines.
