Test Your Policy Checks

Use the liquibase checks run command to run Policy checks to test them.

Liquibase sorts checks into two scopes, changelog checks and database checks. For changelog scoped checks, each check is run against the changesets in the changelog. For database scoped checks, each check is run against the objects in the database.

Checks can be scoped to both the changelog and the database. See checks-scope for additional information.

By default, only changelog checks are included in checks run unless the checks-scope property is specified.

This image depicts the output of the "liquibase checks run" command in the changelog scope when the output of the policy check is non-zero (failed). The output depicts an exit code of "2" which results in an error being passed back.

Procedure

To run policy checks against the database, run liquibase checks run --checks-scope=database.

This image depicts the output of the "liquibase checks run" command in the database scope when the output of the policy check is zero (successful). The output depicts an exit code of "0" and a success message.
