Testing

This bit is manual, we do some testing in this role already but it does not setup a puppetmaster+agent.

Basic environment needed: an agent and a puppetmaster on different VMs/tainers with different FQDNs.

When testing this role it's a good idea to run it on a node:

• which is already puppetized from before
• which is not puppetized before (generate CSR and sign the certificate)
• where we only run some tasks with -e '{"puppet_run_only":true}'
