We are currently using Lago in our release testing pipeline, however, for years now we've been using Vagrant for deploying developer and production hand-on testing environments. There are benefits to how we test and build environments to centering on a singular technology. Thus, I had a few questions I was hoping to get some thoughts on:

I sent last week a pull reuqest to introduce vm and vm provider plugins, it's still on it's early stages, but might be a start introducing vagrant, maybe with a bit more work, create a plugin entry a bit more generic and allow even more logic to be handled by vagrant.

Users testing our builds are using our existing Vagrant setup to spin up environments. However, we aren't testing the setup and configuration users are using and we end up double building the techniques for setting up environments.
