Local Testing

The preferred way of locally testing the role is to use Docker and molecule (v2.x). You will have to install Docker on your system. See "Get started" for a Docker package suitable to for your system. We are using tox to simplify process of testing on multiple ansible versions. To install tox execute:

$ sudo pip install tox
# or
$ pip install --user tox

To run tests on all ansible versions (WARNING: this can take some time)

$ tox

To run a custom molecule command on custom environment with only default test scenario:

$ tox -e py27-ansible25 -- molecule test -s default

For more information about molecule go to their docs.

If you would like to run tests on remote docker host just specify DOCKER_HOST variable before running tox tests.
