Testing Ansible Collection: community.vmware

Testing with ansible-test

Clone the collection and install it manually:

$ mkdir -p  ~/.ansible/collections/ansible_collections/community
$ git clone https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.vmware ~/.ansible/collections/ansible_collections/community/vmware
$ cd ~/.ansible/collections/ansible_collections/community/vmware

If you want to test a PR, you can get it after cloning like this:

$ git fetch origin pull/ID/head:BRANCHNAME
$ git checkout BRANCHNAME

Prepare VMware configuration file:

$ cat tests/integration/cloud-config-vcenter.ini

vcenter_username: administrator@vsphere.local
vcenter_password: mySuperSecretPassw0rd!
vcenter_hostname: vcenter.test
vmware_validate_certs: false
esxi1_username: zuul
esxi1_hostname: esxi1.test
esxi1_password: myEsxiSuperSecretPassw0rd!
