Hi Aaron and All I use Severspec(introduced by shigeta) for TDD. Now, Ansible has unit-test. but, as you say, I can not verify that the servers are configured correctly.(e.g. setup DHCP) ServerSpec can verify that the servers are configured correctly!! It's popular software in Japan:)
ServerSpec says. Serverspec tests your servers' actual state through SSH access, so you don't need to install any agent softwares on your servers and can use any configuration management tools, Puppet, Chef, CFEngine and so on. So, I create sample (install Nginx,open port 80, and Test!) at Github. Please check & try. *https://github.com/volanja/ansible-sample-tdd* Thanks! -- volanja *[email protected]* *https://twitter.com/volanja* 2013年12月12日木曜日 1時39分33秒 UTC+9 Aaron Hunter: > > I come from an Agile software development background in which test driven > development (TDD) is the norm.
