Chef Workflow - Test Libraries and Tooling

This gem provides a set of libraries to drive minitest integration for a number of things:

  1. spawning whole networks of machines
  2. testing their converge successes
  3. testing interoperability between machines
  4. testing advanced functionality in chef, like search.

This library is not intended for testing individual cookbooks, or even a run_list on a single machine. chef-workflow-tasklib contains functionality to do this with minitest-chef-handler if you so desire.

Most of the Meat is on the Wiki
