CRD changes can’t easily be tested in the operator

[skitt]

CRD changes to the types managed by the operator can’t easily be tested because the CRDs are installed by subctl. The version of subctl used notably in operator E2E isn’t rebuilt with the version of the operator being tested, so it doesn’t have the CRD changes (or RBAC etc.).

One possible fix for this (other than rebuilding subctl — which isn’t great because it means the operator project has knowledge of a specific dependent) would be to update the CRDs using the operator versions after initial deployment.

Talking about this on the scrub, it doesn't seem like this would do a lot to help with RBAC (which is what changes most frequently). The project where the RBAC is actually used, say Submariner's main repo, would still need a second PR after the RBAC changes to actually test them where they are used.
