Helm Chart.yaml with Dependencies

A Helm v2 Chart.yaml with two conditional subchart dependencies, semver range constraints, a kubeVersion constraint, maintainers and annotations. Every repository and URL is example.invalid, so nothing resolves anywhere real.

Expected to pass
Scenario
Read a Helm chart's metadata and resolve its declared dependency constraints
Expected result
Two dependencies are found, each gated by a condition key and pinned by a semver range rather than an exact version

What is a .yaml file?

YAML (YAML Ain't Markup Language) is a human-readable data-serialization format using indentation, key-value pairs, and lists, and is a superset of JSON. It supports comments, anchors, and multiple documents per file, favoring readability for configuration. Its indentation sensitivity makes it error-prone to hand-edit.

How to use this file

Use an example YAML file to test config parsers, indentation and anchor handling, multi-document streams, and safe-loading to avoid arbitrary object construction.

How to use this file for testing

“Helm Chart.yaml with Dependencies” is a deterministic Testaroo fixture for Config testing, Config parsing, Editor testing. TOML, INI, YAML, .env, and dotfile configuration samples with nested sections and typed values, for testing config parsers, loaders, and environment tooling.

Documented properties for this file: YAML · 712 bytes. Compare results against paired or grouped companions on this page when present (clean↔damaged, searchable↔scanned, or format twins) so scores stay reproducible across runs.

Download the file once, keep the path stable in CI or local scripts, and treat the spec table as the contract: dimensions, seeds, field lists, and roles are intentional. Corrupt or invalid samples are labelled as such, expect parsers to fail loudly rather than silently accept them.

Pipeline and infrastructure fixtures are inert configuration: steps reference fictional images and scripts, and nothing here executes. Run your linter, schema validator, migrator, or policy engine against them, and expect the deprecated-syntax and intentionally invalid variants to be rejected.

Point your config loader at the file and assert it reads the documented sections and typed values, including any deliberately-tricky nesting or comments.

Code examples

import yaml  # pip install pyyaml

with open("helm-chart.yaml") as f:
    data = yaml.safe_load(f)
print(data)
