+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.
