Testing Requirements
====================
-Tests are run by "make tests". To run the tests you need the following:-
+Automation tests are run by "make tests" and contain a mixture of integration and "unit" level tests. To run the tests you need the following:
* nose must be installed - https://nose.readthedocs.org/en/latest/
- * ansible tests require paramiko, PyYAML and json modules
- * The (optional) facter test requires facter to be installed.
- * Your user environment should allow "ssh myip" (where myip is your ip address)
- without a password - so a key held in ssh-agent and an authorised_keys entry.
+ * ansible tests require paramiko, PyYAML python modules, and python 2.6+.
+ * Some tests require additional components (facter, ohai) and will be skipped if not available.
+ * Your user environment should allow "ssh 127.0.0.1"
+ without a password - so a key held in ssh-agent and an authorized_keys entry.
