[Fleet]: Dropdown to select GA version is not available when Display beta integrations is enabled under Integrations tab.

[amolnater-qasource]

Kibana version: 8.7 Snapshot kibana cloud environment

Host OS and Browser version: All, All

Build details:

VERSION: 8.7 Snapshot
BUILD: 60311
COMMIT: ef00463019c0ebce609070d25cee6eed59a33909

Preconditions:

1. 8.7 Snapshot kibana cloud environment should be available..

Steps to reproduce:

1. Navigate to Integrations>Endpoint defend.
2. Observe Endpoint version 8.6.1 is available.
3. Navigate back to Browse tab and enable Display beta integrations.
4. Observe Endpoint version 8.7.0-next is available.

As per our understanding for feature #122973, we expected a dropdown available for Endpoint where we will be able to select the GA version.

Impacted Testcase:
C168361

Screen Recording:

Expected Result:

I tried enabling the display beta integrations toggle on a clean instance of kibana and for me it doesn't happen:

Screen.Recording.2023-02-08.at.17.05.17.mov

By looking at the code:

https://github.com/juliaElastic/kibana/blob/13b381af78aa40ccbb14517405f9944895267245/x-pack/plugins/fleet/public/applications/integrations/sections/epm/screens/detail/index.tsx#L369-L379

it seems that the select could disappear in few cases, but the interesting ones are when latestGAVersion or latestPrereleaseVersion are falsy and when packageInfo.version !== latestGAVersion or packageInfo.version !== latestPrereleaseVersion.
The other two cases are straight forward (prereleaseIntegrationsEnabled === false, latestGAVersion === latestPrereleaseVersion).

One thing that I noticed doing a pretty quick test is that those versions start to get weird once an integration gets installed once and then uninstalled; it seems that the "leftover" assets mangle the versions and whole page behaves weirdly.

@amolnater-qasource I'm having trouble reproducing this bug. Could you test it again? If it happens again, could you let me know the detailed repro steps (for instance, if it was a first install of kibana, if the integration was installed for the first time or it was a reinstall)?

Hi @criamico

We have revalidated this issue on 8.7 Snapshot and 8.7 BC1 kibana cloud environment and had below observations[same for both]:

• Endpoint version 8.7.0 is available on both the builds.
• On enabling the Display beta integrations toggle, no beta version is available.
• Further APM integration is installed by default and beta-preview version is also available.
• However no dropdown is available for that, though the flow of opening the integration is different than other integrations.

We can close this issue if this is expected and we can track this on later builds.

Please let us know if anything else is required from our end.

Thanks @amolnater-qasource !

@juliaElastic I remember that you worked on this part, do you remember what was the expected behavior? The functionality here seems to be different than what expected, but it's not consistent. It seems to me that the fetched versions are not always the same, do you think it's possible?

[juliaElastic]

For the Elastic Defend, there is a new 8.7.0 GA version published, so there is no newer beta version now, that is why there is no select available.
On the Elastic APM, it looks like 8.7.0-SNAPSHOT is installed and there is a newer preview available. Both of these are prerelease versions, so it is expected that there is no select showing up.

On the original issue, I think we might have a bug if the package is uninstalled, as you mentioned. We should investigate more.

One thing that I noticed doing a pretty quick test is that those versions start to get weird once an integration gets installed once and then uninstalled; it seems that the "leftover" assets mangle the versions and whole page behaves weirdly.

[criamico]

Thanks Julia, I suspected that this is expected behavior. I'll close this bug and open a new one about the uninstalled package behavior to avoid confusion.

[criamico]

I checked the case when an integration is uninstalled. Unless the assets are also removed, the page appears as if the unistalled integration is still present. This screenshot is taken after uninstalling apm-8.4.2 but with the assets still installed:

Once the assets get removed, the page shows the dropdown again:

I think that this is correct behavior as well, even though it is a bit confusing for the customer.
