Hi Rene, Hi Boris,

Thanks @Boris for the information about Marvin. I guess in our case (running 
automated test against our prod environment) that would not be the ideal choice.

The ansible approach however looks promising, thank you. Going to look into 
that and find out how to write "tests" using ansible. I'm much more addicted to 
programming in Python than I am to ansible, and from the automation point of 
view we are using puppet, so let's see what happens. :-)

Thanks and regards
