I'm sorry. The playbooks here are a much-too-complicated way of saying: - test podman (root and rootless) under cgroups v2 - reboot into cgroups v1 - repeat the same podman tests We can't use standard-test-basic any more because, tl;dr, that has to be the last stanza in the playbook and it doesn't offer any mechanism for running a reboot in the middle of tests. (I actually found a way but it was even uglier than this approach). The starting point is tests.yml . From there: tests.yml \- test_podman.yml |- roles/rootless_user_ready/ \- test_podman_cgroups_vn.yml (runs twice: cgroups v2, v1) |- roles/set_cgroups/ \- roles/run_bats_tests/ (runs tests: root, rootless) Principal result is the file 'artifacts/test.log'. It will contain one line for each test run, format will be '(PASS|FAIL|ERROR) ' For each completed test there will also be a 'test..bats.log' containing some setup blurbs (RPMs, environment) and the full BATS log.
