Create, test, and deploy automation content with ansible-dev-tools

Ansible development tools (ansible-dev-tools) is a suite of tools provided with Ansible Automation Platform to help automation creators to create, test, and deploy playbook projects, execution environments, and collections.

The Ansible VS Code extension by Red Hat integrates most of the Ansible development tools: you can use these tools from the VS Code user interface.

Use Ansible development tools during local development of playbooks, local testing, and in a CI pipeline (linting and testing).

Use Ansible development tools to create a playbook project that contains playbooks and roles that you can reuse within the project. It also describes how to test the playbooks and deploy the project on your Ansible Automation Platform instance so that you can use the playbooks in automation jobs.
