 VirtualBox (I need to test on different OSes, not just Linux). If LXC serves
 your needs than you should be able to run Vagrant with the LXC provider and
 therefore Molecule. For me it's a deal breaker.

+A final word on boiler-plate
+----------------------------
+
+In a previous post I mentioned that I have several repositories that have the
+same boiler-plate and how I plan on dealing with that. Now, this is the first
+attempt at this. The idea is having a base repo that I clone, add another remote
+and voilà, a new project with the scaffloding already there. For bonus points, I
+can update the base repo and pull those changes in all projects. Here's how I do
+it:
+
+.. code:: shell
+
+    git clone https://www.shore.co.il/git/ansible-role-example ansible-role-name
+    cd ansible-role-name
+    git remote rename origin ansible-role-example
+    git remote add origin git@example.com/path/to/repo
+    git push -u origin master
+
+And in case I update the ansible-role-example repo than I pull the updates by
+running :code:`git pull ansible-role-example master`.
