  2. Have a Helm chart to verify.
  3. Make sure that helm install succeeds on your cluster, and that any tests pass.

          verify_args: --chart-set githubOwner=redhat-actions

Troubleshooting

If the verify step appears to be stuck, it is probably waiting for your chart to be installed successfully. The tool will wait up to 5 minutes by default for helm install to succeed.

Make sure your chart can be installed on the currently logged in cluster before using the chart-verifier.
