Provide an example of how to use the ansible connection with sudo
I am unable to run the iptables functionality
def test_iptables_rules(host):
rules = host.iptables.rules(table=u'filter', chain=u'INPUT')
How I invoke it
$ py.test-s --connection=ansible --ansible-inventory ./myhosts --hosts="agroup" mytest.py
In the same directory, I created ansible.cfg Note that I don't have ssh keys configured on the target hosts & I want the program to prompt for passwords i.e. using ssh-pass ?
[privilege_escalation]
become_ask_pass=True
[defaults]
remote_user=donaldtrump
ask_pass=True
The exception. Note that I had to hack the code to add the full path /sbin/iptables as the original code could not find the binary.

Hi @erriapo,
I think this might help you :) https://testinfra.readthedocs.io/en/latest/modules.html#sudo
Given https://github.com/philpep/testinfra/issues/285#issuecomment-365219564, I think this can be closed.
