So I want to find out the easiest way to get <code>kubectl</code> working noninteractively.</p> <p>Assuming that <code>gcloud</code> and <code>kubectl</code> are already installed but not necessarily setup, <strong>ONLY</strong> two commands are needed to get <code>kubectl</code> working noninteractively (verified with Google Cloud SDK 141.0.0 and kubectl 1.5.2)</p>
