Background:

As the current acceptance pipeline is still flaky due to the huge number of versions that we need to test, we cannot rely on those tests for blocking a release when they fail, since is very likely that most of the releases would be blocked by fake positives.
Therefore, we need to create a small set of trustable tests to check the minimum functionality of the operator, to be configured as the external CVP tests demanded in the Epic.

Approach (Required)

A new folder called base is going to be created in the e2e folder of the repo, holding a basic small set of tests to be configured for the CVP pipeline. Those tests would check:

• GitOps operator workload (deployments, services, pods...)
• ArgoCD login

Acceptance Criteria (Mandatory)

1. The base folder has been created and added to the gitops-operator repo.
2. Tests are well documented to be used out of the box.

Done Checklist

• Test code is completed, reviewed, documented, and checked in.
• Tests are passing in a healthy GitOps operator installation.
• Acceptance criteria are met.
