I'm running a cookbook and when I run it on my local machine, all of my ChefSpec tests passed. However, when Jenkins ran them, it failed some of my tests. I checked the version of Chef running on both of my local machine and Jenkins server and they were the same. The message I received was a basic one:

Expected "a directory" with action :create to be in Chef run. Other bash resources: (empty here).

I also have this same test on two platform, redhat linux and aix but only the redhat linux fails. Anyone has any idea why is it happening? Thank you

Check that you are running the same versions of Chef and ChefSpec in both places. – coderanger Jun 21 '17 at 23:46
If you have any guards (only_if/not_if/if) in pure ruby, you should mock them. They may return different value locally and on CI. – Szymon Jun 22 '17 at 05:20
@coderanger I checked the version and they are the same both place. – nguyli03 Jun 22 '17 at 13:39
@SzymonSzypulski I don't think I have any only_if or not _if but maybe my if is messing up. Thank you for the suggestion. – nguyli03 Jun 22 '17 at 13:41
