Preview resources about lyra

[jdwelch]

What's the "so that" part? What exactly are you looking to learn with a preview?

[jdwelch]

Here's a few:

• 'so that I don't spend £ I wasn't intending to on resources'
• 'so that I see how my instantiation data affect the execution of the workflow'
• 'so that I gain confidence in how Lyra works'

Any big points I'm missing @kenazk?

[kenazk]

Oh yeah. Good catch @jdwelch. Here are a couple additional ones that I've heard so far:

• So that I can run the output of the preview through a testing framework to ensure it's been configured correctly.
• So that I can get sign-off from other team members prior to provisioning

👍

@jdwelch Is this something prototype-able at this point? Or should I take a swing first?

So that I can run the output of the preview through a testing framework to ensure it's been configured correctly.

Can you unpack this one a bit? What kind of data does that framework need, in what format, etc? Is rspec the explicit thing to support? (I would prefer InSpec if we're gonna force folks to write Ruby...)

[jdwelch]

@kenazk Prototype-able at this point, definitely.
