@domenkozar I am not sure what to do about the CLA i did follow the instruction in my previous PRs but it seems CLAssistant is failing anyway.

Reviewed together in the docs team meeting. Though not fully done.

@olafklingt Do you still have time to work on this? It would be great if you could improve the NixOS manual reference docs side of this, so this tutorial can be smaller.

@infinisil thanks for the review. I will have a look at them and see what I can do in the manual.

The framework has been updated with a new entrypoint, see https://nixos.org/manual/nixos/unstable/#sec-calling-nixos-tests Note also that with flakes nixos-lib is also nixpkgs.lib.nixos where nixpkgs is the Nixpkgs flake.

Or for a Nixpkgs-first approach, see testers.runNixOSTest
