This submission makes extensive use of the python-consul library and this is required
as a dependency and can be installed from pip.
The tests were written to target a vagrant cluster which can be setup by following the
instructions here http://github.com/sgargan/consul-vagrant
Changes include:
* Update Makefile to use credentials.yml when it exists
* Add details on the use of the credentials.yml file to README.md.
* Update credentials.template comments
To support parallel cloud test execution, create and provide a random string to
cloud integration tests. The variable 'resource_prefix' can be used in cloud
roles and during resource cleanup to safely create/destroy cloud-based
resources.
Additional changes include:
* The roles test_ec2_key and test_ec2_group were updated to use to
{{resource_prefix}}.
* Additionally, the Makefile was updated to set resource_prefix to a random
string. The Makefile will also use 'resource_prefix' during cloud_cleanup.
* All test_ec2* roles were updated to add 'setup_ec2' as a role dependency.
