Sanity Tests
************
.. contents:: Topics
Sanity tests are made up of scripts and tools used to perform static code analysis.
The primary purpose of these tests is to enforce Ansible coding standards and requirements.
Tests are run with ``ansible-test sanity``.
All available tests are run unless the ``--test`` option is used.
How to run
==========
.. note::
To run sanity tests using docker, always use the default docker image
by passing the ``--docker`` or ``--docker default`` argument.
.. note::
When using docker and the ``--base-branch`` argument,
also use the ``--docker-keep-git`` argument to avoid git related errors.
.. code:: shell
source hacking/env-setup
