Role Testing

This repository comes with Molecule that run in Podman on the supported platforms. Install Molecule by running

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Run the tests with

molecule test

These tests are automatically ran by Gitlab Actions on push. If the tests are successful, the role is automatically published to Ansible Galaxy.

Gitlab Actions is supposed to fail for this gitlab_cli repository, as it does not contain any meaningful role. There is an explicit assertion to check if the role name has been changed from gitlab_cli which causes the test to fail.
