Example Playbook

Here's a simple example from molecule/default/converge.yml. It's tested whenever there's a push, pull request, or release.

---
- name: Converge
  hosts: all
  become: true
  gather_facts: true

  roles:
    - role: buluma.cron
    - role: buluma.ntp
      ntp_state: stopped

Make sure your machine is ready. In CI (Continuous Integration), this uses molecule/default/prepare.yml:

---
- name: Prepare
  hosts: all
  become: true
  gather_facts: false

  roles:
    - role: buluma.bootstrap

You can find a more detailed explanation and example here.
