Re: [OpenStack-Infra] Development environments for infra's puppet modules

My tool of choice is vagrant - it's super easy to create a Vagrantfile, write a quick shell script that idempotently installs any required puppet modules, and then run puppet itself. An older example is the puppet-storyboard module: git checkout, vagrant up, and you're off to the races.
