To Manually Test:
Create a playbook in any directory: $ touch testmod.yml
Add the following to the new playbook file:
- name: test my new module
connection: local
hosts: localhost
tasks:
- name: run the new module
my_new_test_module:
name: 'hello'
new: true
register: testout
- name: dump test output
debug:
msg: '{{ testout }}'
Run the playbook and analyze the output: $ ansible-playbook ./testmod.yml
To run pytest against a single test module, you can do the following (provide the path to the test module appropriately):
$ pytest -r a --cov=. --cov-report=html --fulltrace --color yes test/units/modules/.../test/my_new_test_module.py
