Today I’m focusing on trying to get unit/integration testing working for cookbooks targeting windows.

There are a fairly unreal number of tools involved in a ‘test suite’ for chef

• test kitchen
• tailor
• foodcritic
• berkshelf
• chefspec
• vagrant

so i’m trying to get my head wrapped around them without getting myself twisted into knots.

First step 1 : How to generate a windows machine and converge it with a particular cookbook
