[L] We need a functioning Greenwave and WaiverDB in the development environment

[bowlofeggs]

It is currently very difficult to develop against Greenwave and WaiverDB. There isn't test data in staging, and so we can't test them there, and we obviously don't want to write waivers to the production WaiverDB during development. We need to have the Vagrant environment provision both of these, and provide an easy way for Bodhi developers to simulate failing tests and set policies.

Could we mock these systems in the development environment ? I am thinking of simple python scripts that would send the expected requests to bodhi ?

Or maybe this is a silly idea 😄

We do mock them for unit tests, but I estimate that it might actually be more work to write and maintain a mock than it would be to have running services.

Should we provide GW and WDB as a docker service(like in integration tests)?
