What kind of change does this PR introduce?
This PR splits the Helm chart CI workflow into two separate workflows — one for linting and one for installation tests.
This change improves clarity, reduces runtime for simple validations, and enables maintainers to approve or trigger heavy install tests only when needed.
What is the current behavior?
Currently, the
Lint and Test Charts
workflow performs both linting and installation tests in a single run, requiring manual approval before execution.This setup slows down the feedback loop and consumes resources even for minor changes.
What is the new behavior?
Introduces two distinct GitHub Actions:
lint-charts.yml
: runs automatically on PRs for fast lint feedback.test-charts.yml
: runs only after lint passes and is gated by environment approval (github-cicd
).Maintains the same chart-testing logic and cluster setup for installation tests.
Keeps existing validation parity while improving CI efficiency and control.
Additional context
a
github-cicd
environment has to be created under Repository Settings → Environments, with the appropriate required reviewers configured to control when installation tests can run.
