The article author is Testing in PROD

when you acknowledge this, then continuing your advice with

  setenforce 0
is a spectacularly bad idea. You can make individual domains permissive using

  semanage permissive -a ${context}
and then run the failing test using only that permissive domain.

Of course, the story becomes much more complicated if the failing test requires type transitions -- but blanket advising people to put an entire PROD system in permissive mode is not a good idea.

agreed on all points. sometime the problem is so elusive that its flipping it to `0` time!
