testcloud is a small tool to download and boot cloud images locally. 

== Detailed Description ==
testcloud was created because manually booting a cloud image locally can be a pain. It handles downloading the image, spoofing cloud-init metadata as well as providing an ssh_config to easily connect to the booted instance. What was usually several different steps to get an image to boot locally is now just one:

   testcloud instance create <name of instance> -u <url for qcow2 image>

It currently supports only the Fedora Cloud Base image, and work is ongoing to support the Atomic host image. 

== Scope ==
* Proposal owners: Mike Ruckman, Kushal Das to implement proposed change 
* Other developers: N/A (not a System Wide Change) 
* Release engineering: N/A (not a System Wide Change) 
* Policies and guidelines: N/A (not a System Wide Change)
