Thanks Eric, I am trying to implement some function tests. E.g. in my catalog for node B there is LDAP client, however, I would like to do a test to see if the LDAP server is already up and running. And decide if I want to apply the LDAP Client or not. (This is a test on remote resource, I might also need to test a resource local to the client, e.g. existence of a file, a service is running, etc).
Maybe I can use custom facter for this?
