Testing with Virtual Machines
=============================
Bifrost supports using virtual machines to emulate the hardware. All of the
steps mentioned above are mostly the same.
It is assumed you have an SSH server running on the host machine. The ``agent_ssh``
driver, used by Ironic with VM testing, will need to use SSH to control the
virtual machines.
An SSH key is generated for the ``ironic`` user when testing. The ironic conductor
will use this key to connect to the host machine and run virsh commands.
#. Set ``testing`` to *true* in the ``inventory/group_vars/all`` file.
#. You may need to adjust the value for ``ssh_public_key_path``.
#. Run the install step, as documented above.
#. Run the ``create_vm_nodes.sh`` script. By default, it will create a single VM node. Read the documentation within the script to see how to create more than one.
#. The ``create_vm_nodes.sh`` script will output CSV entries that can be used for the enrollment step. You will need to create a CSV file with this output.
#. Run the enrollment step, as documented above, using the CSV file you created in the previous step.
#. Run the deployment step, as documented above.
