*Talk description:*We'll start off by giving a brief refresher on how MW-Vagrant works and how it differs from stock Vagrant. Next, we'll showcase some of the newest and most useful features of MWV such as multi-wiki support, SSH/HTTP sharing, Labs integration, advanced customization using Hiera and local roles. Finally, we'd like to show how MWV can be useful in test-driven development by demonstrating how to run unit and browser tests. The last 15 minutes will be reserved for Q/A.
