cfme.fixtures.appliance module

This module contains fixtures to use when you need a temporary appliance for testing.

In cases where you cannot run a certain test againts the primary appliance because of the test’s destructive potential (which could render all subsequent testing useless), you want to use a temporary appliance parallel to the primary one.

For tests where all you need is a single preconfigured appliance to run a database restore on for example, you will want to use the temp_appliance_preconfig() fixture.

For tests that require multiple unconfigured appliances (e.g. replication testing), there is temp_appliances_unconfig().
