Kitten is a local runner for Tekton CRD. If you never heard about Tekton, check here
Kitten doesn't require a Kubernetes cluster to run pipelines, it uses your (local) Docker installation to execute the exact same sequence of containers, reusing some of the Tekton component, and just replacing the Kubernetes CRD objects and Pod scheduling with in-memory state and plain Docker containers.
This project mostly started as an exercice to improve my Go skills. But I imagine it can be used to run local tests of your Tekton pipeline.
This project use raw Tekton CRDs, it doesn't define any higher level syntax to define your CI/CD process. Other open source projects such as Jenkins X), have already integrated Tekton as the default pipeline engine.
[need instructions for OS X and Linux]
[need examples of testing a local pipeline ]
You've probably seen the Tekton logo, which is a robot cat. These days most Kubernetes-related project names start with the letter K, we did the same thing.
