beaker-vmware

Beaker library to use vmware fusion hypervisor

How to use this wizardry

This gem that allows you to use hosts with vmware_fusion and vsphere hypervisor with beaker.

Right Now? (beaker 3.x)

This gem is already included as beaker dependency for you, so you don't need to do anything special to use this gem's functionality with beaker.

In beaker's Next Major Version? (beaker 4.x)

In beaker's next major version, the requirement for beaker-vmware will be pulled from that repo. When that happens, then the usage pattern will change. In order to use this then, you'll need to include beaker-vmware as a dependency right next to beaker itself.

Spec tests

Spec test live under the spec folder. There are the default rake task and therefore can run with a simple command:

bundle exec rake test:spec

Acceptance tests

We run beaker's base acceptance tests with this library to see if the hypervisor is working with beaker. Please refer to the setting up vmware fusion docs to setup your hosts for testing and modify the test-nodes hosts file. Once that's setup, there is a simple rake task to invoke acceptance test for the library:

bundle exec rake test:acceptance
