EXAMPLE

13        use Rex::Test::Base;
14        use Data::Dumper;
15        use Rex -base;
16
17        test {
18          my $t = shift;
19
20          $t->name("ubuntu test");
21
22          $t->base_vm("http://box.rexify.org/box/ubuntu-server-12.10-amd64.ova");
23          $t->vm_auth(user => "root", password => "box");
24
25          $t->run_task("setup");
26
27          $t->has_package("vim");
28          $t->has_package("ntp");
29          $t->has_package("unzip");
30
31          $t->has_file("/etc/ntp.conf");
32
33          $t->has_service_running("ntp");
34
35          $t->has_content("/etc/passwd", qr{root:x:0:}ms);
36
37          run "ls -l";
38          $t->ok($? == 0, "ls -l returns success.");
39
40          $t->finish;
41        };
