11.1. Introduction

The puppet module for puppet consists of an upstream available Source Control Management system enabling the management of puppet through puppet, branched for three different environments:
  • development
    This is the development branch were changes follow up quickly.
  • testing
    This is the testing branch where series of changes applied to development move before they go to production, and a number of tests can be performed to ensure everything works as expected and before the module is considered production-worthy.
  • production
    This is the production branch where all changes have gone through a series of tests during their time in testing, tested for all use-cases. See also: Section 11.6, “Version Control”.
