In Concourse see Greenhouse CI for required environment variables for these tasks. For example, for rake build:vsphere refer to this task.yml.

Instructions for building a manual stemcell for vSphere can be found in the wiki.

Running the tests

bundler exec rspec

Acceptance testing for stemcells should be done with bosh-windows-acceptance-tests
