Passing noop => true to a class does not work as you expected.

This is one of that moments where you treat a class like a resource,
but it is not, unfortunately.

Take a look at this noop() function:

https://github.com/nrvale0/deploy-to-noop-part-1/tree/master/puppet/environments/production/modules/noop

It does work quite nicely and I've used in production and dos reflect
the behavior you are looking for.

Regards,

Miguel
