Hi, thanks for the PR but you're not supposed to use get_host() in this case but rather get_hosts() which return a list of testinfra host objects on which you can call modules.

However the actual behavior need a specific error message I think.

EDIT: But your usage looks interesting "run commands on minions in a single salt call". I wonder how we could introduce this, your solution works for salt module but will not work for all other modules.
