This tool provides a set of functions to validate various aspects of a Kubernetes cluster, including pod connectivity, URL accessibility from within and outside the cluster, and user permissions.

Features

• Pod Connectivity Check: Validates if one pod can connect to another within the cluster.
• Internal URL Accessibility Check: Validates if a URL is accessible from a specific pod within the cluster.
• External URL Accessibility Check: Validates if a URL is accessible from outside the Kubernetes cluster.
• User Permission Check: Checks if a user has specific permissions in the Kubernetes cluster.

• API Version Availability Check: Checks if a specific version of an API is available in the Kubernetes cluster.
