@Marvin, I want to run a quick test on my Kubernetes worker-pool without having to declare it as a deployment. Just by running

python <my-python-script>.py

, is it possible?

To run a quick test on your Kubernetes worker-pool without declaring it as a deployment, you can execute your flow script directly using Prefect's imperative programming style. Here’s a general approach: 1. Define your Flow and Tasks: Use the

@flow

decorator to define your flow and

@task

for tasks. 2. Execute Locally: By running your script with

python <my-python-script>.py

, Prefect will execute the flow locally without needing to deploy it. This will not leverage your Kubernetes worker-pool but will run on your local machine. 3. Testing Kubernetes Specifics: If you specifically want to test Kubernetes infrastructure, you would typically need to use deployments to make use of Kubernetes workers. However, for quick local tests, you can simulate the flow logic without involving Kubernetes. For more detailed scenarios involving Kubernetes, you might want to explore Prefect's documentation on running flows in local processes and Kubernetes infrastructure examples. If you need to test specific Kubernetes configurations, you might need to set up a minimal deployment to utilize those resources effectively.
