Allowing to get a shared ruby library directory will make things faster
for people running tests on multiple modules all the day.

required for testing. The url in this file uses the git:// protocol, so this
may need to be updated if you are behind a proxy.
Please note you might need to install some system dependencies in order to
allow bundle to install the gems.
.. note::
The ~/vendor/bundle directory will contain all the dependencies, and can be shared with
multiple projects. Doing so avoids duplication.
In case you don't want shared libraries, please do the following::
mkdir vendor
export GEM_HOME=vendor
bundle install
.. note::
Be advised that your local run can be successful and you can get a -1 from
Jenkins, because you only run the tests for your Operating System Family.
Tiny trick for RSpec
--------------------
You might find the time really long while running the tests. Part of the time is
due to the collection of the required puppet modules for the tests. The cache
directory is cleaned after each (successful) run, and if you're doing multiple changes
with an RSpec run between each, you'd want to keep that cache. This can be done like
that:
.. code-block:: bash
bundle exec rake spec_prep # download all the dependencies
bundle exec rake spec_standalone # actually run the test and keep cached modules
The modules are downloaded and cached in the *spec/fixtures/modules/* directory
