To run unit tests, execute make unit-test.
To build a podman based image, execute make podman-build.
You can run an integration test on a Linux system by populating the env files at test/integration/ with values for your Dell EMC PowerScale systems and then run "make integration-test".
Runtime Dependencies
Both the Controller and the Node portions of the driver can only be run on nodes which have network connectivity to a “PowerScale Cluster” (which is used by the driver).
