Don't the apply tests do that?


Not really; since they do a --noop run they find things like syntax
issues, dependency loops, missing statements etc; but this does leave a
lot of room for other failures.

For example, our version of puppet-nodejs was warning on Xenial "this
platform not supported, I'll try to use sensible defaults", which
passed through the apply tests -- but wasn't actually working when it
came to really getting nodejs on the system alongside
etherpad/ethercalc.

I also think there was some false sense of security since (now called)
legacy-puppet-beaker-rspec-infra was working ... even though *it* was
a noop too.
