Enable unit testing for Pulumi programs (#2638)
* Enable unit testing for Pulumi programs

This change enables rudimentary unit testing of your Pulumi programs, by introducing a `PULUMI_TEST_MODE` envvar that, when set, allows programs to run without a CLI. That includes

* Just being able to import your Pulumi modules, and test ordinary functions -- which otherwise would have often accidentally triggered the "Not Running in a CLI" error message
* Being able to verify a subset of resource properties and shapes, with the caveat that outputs are not included, due to the fact that this is a perpetual "dry run" without any engine operations occurring

In principle, this also means you can attach a debugger and step through your code.

* Finish the unit testing features

This change

1) Incorporates CR feedback, namely requiring that test mode be
   explicitly enabled for any of this to work.

2) Implements Python support for the same capabilities.

3) Includes tests for both JavaScript and Python SDKs.

* Add a note on unit testing to the CHANGELOG

* Use Node 8 friendly assert API

* Embellish the CHANGELOG entry a bit

Pulumi Node.js SDK

The Pulumi Node.js SDK lets you write cloud programs in JavaScript.

Installation

Using npm:

$ npm install --save @pulumi/pulumi

Using yarn:

$ yarn add @pulumi/pulumi

This SDK is meant for use with the Pulumi CLI. Please visit pulumi.io for installation instructions.

Building and Testing

For anybody who wants to build from source, here is how you do it.

Prerequisites

This SDK uses Node.js and we support the Active LTS and Current releases, as defined by this table. We support both NPM and Yarn for package management.

At the moment, we only support building on macOS and Linux, where standard GNU tools like make are available.

Make Targets

The first time you build, run make ensure to install and prepare native plugins for V8:

$ make ensure

This is only necessary if you intend to produce a build that is capable of running older versions of the SDK contained in this directory. If you do intend to do this, you must have node 6.10.2 installed.

To build the SDK, simply run make from the root directory (where this README lives, at sdk/nodejs/ from the repo's root). This will build the code, run tests, and install the package and its supporting artifacts.

At the moment, for local development, we install everything into /opt/pulumi. You will want this on your $PATH.

The tests will verify that everything works, but feel free to try running pulumi preview and/or pulumi update from the examples/minimal/ directory. Remember to run tsc first, since pulumi expects JavaScript, not TypeScript.
