Molecule is designed to aid in the development and testing of
`Ansible`_ roles including support for multiple instances,
operating system distributions, virtualization providers and test frameworks.

It leverages `Vagrant`_, `Docker`_, and `OpenStack`_ to manage virtual
machines/containers, with support for multiple Vagrant providers (currently
`VirtualBox`_, `Parallels`_, `VMware Fusion`_, and `Libvirt`_).  Molecule
supports `Serverspec`_, `Testinfra`_, or `Goss`_ (beta) to run tests.  Molecule
uses an `Ansible`_ `playbook`_ (``playbook.yml``), to execute the `role`_ and
its tests.

Quick Start
===========

.. important::

  `Ansible`_ and the driver's python package require installation.

Install OS dependencies on CentOS 6/7

.. code-block:: bash

  $ yum install -y epel-release
  $ yum install gcc python-devel openssl-devel libffi-devel

Install OS dependencies on Ubuntu 16.x

.. code-block:: bash

  $ apt-get update
  $ apt-get install gcc python-pip python-vagrant libssl-dev libffi-dev

Install Molecule using pip:

.. code-block:: bash

  $ pip install ansible
  $ pip install docker
  $ pip install molecule

Create a new role with the docker driver:

.. code-block:: bash

  $ molecule init --role foo --driver docker
  --> Initializing role foo...
  Successfully initialized new role in /private/tmp/foo.

Or add Molecule to an existing role:

.. code-block:: bash

  $ cd foo
  $ molecule init --driver docker
  --> Initializing molecule in current directory...
  Successfully initialized new role in /private/tmp/foo.

Update the role with needed functionality and tests.  Now test it:

.. code-block:: bash

  $ cd foo
  $ molecule test
  --> Destroying instances...
  --> Checking playbook's syntax...

  playbook: playbook.yml
  --> Creating instances...
  Creating container foo with base image ubuntu:latest...
  Container created.
  --> Starting Ansible Run...

  PLAY [all] *********************************************************************

  TASK [setup] *******************************************************************
  ok: [foo]

  PLAY RECAP *********************************************************************
  foo                        : ok=1    changed=0    unreachable=0    failed=0

  --> Idempotence test in progress (can take a few minutes)...
  --> Starting Ansible Run...
  Idempotence test passed.
  --> Performing a 'Dry Run' of playbook...

  PLAY [all] *********************************************************************

  TASK [setup] *******************************************************************
  ok: [foo]

  PLAY RECAP *********************************************************************
  foo                        : ok=1    changed=0    unreachable=0    failed=0

  --> Executing ansible-lint...
  --> Executing flake8 on *.py files found in tests/...
  --> Executing testinfra tests found in tests/...
