Beaker library to use vmware fusion hypervisor
How to use this wizardry
This gem allows you to use hosts with vmware_fusion and vsphere hypervisor with beaker.
Beaker will automatically load the appropriate hypervisors for any given hosts file, so as long as your project dependencies are satisfied there's nothing else to do. No need to require
this library in your tests.
With Beaker 3.x
This library is included as a dependency of Beaker 3.x versions, so there's nothing to do.
With Beaker 4.x
As of Beaker 4.0, all hypervisor and DSL extension libraries have been removed and are no longer dependencies. In order to use a specific hypervisor or DSL extension library in your project, you will need to include them alongside Beaker in your Gemfile or project.gemspec. E.g.
# Gemfile
gem 'beaker', '~>4.0'
gem 'beaker-vmware'
# project.gemspec
s.add_runtime_dependency 'beaker', '~>4.0'
s.add_runtime_dependency 'beaker-vmware'
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. You can run the acceptance tests locally; see Acceptance Setup. Once that's setup, there is a simple rake task to invoke acceptance test for the library:
$ bundle exec rake test:acceptance
