Description

Build an appliance based upon the modular appliances, which are designed to provide more comprehensive BoxGrinder Build feature coverage.

Setup

  1. Prepare your environment
  2. Create local repository directory 
    mkdir -p /tmp/boxgrinder-repo
  3. Download our test RPM 
    wget --directory-prefix=/tmp/boxgrinder-repo http://repo.boxgrinder.org/boxgrinder/testday/ephemeral-repo-test-0.1-1.noarch.rpm
  4. Create repodata 
    createrepo /tmp/boxgrinder-repo

How to test

  1. Execute 
    boxgrinder-build testing-appliances/modular-appls/fedora_14.appl --trace

Expected Results

The following must be true to consider this a successful test run.

  1. Step #1 completes without error (indicated on console)
  2. Program completes with exit code 0
