Welcome to the simdeplower wiki!
simdeplower is a handy python tool to deploy VMWare vCenter Server Appliance OVA files into fusion or workstation and configure them as Simulators so you can do functional testing.
As a long time follower of William Lam and his wonderful blog and also a developer I always loved the articles he would write about the vCenter Simulator. That tool gave me a way to quickly run basic functional tests on libraries I work on like pyVmomi and yavijava. He provided a script to configure a vCenter using a bash script, it might have even included using simulator, Im not 100% sure. I know for sure it was his blog posts that influenced this. I always just used some hard coded bash scripts to do this for myself, but finally decided it was worth turning into a tool and releasing it to the public. So here it is. It has a stupid name because I am terrible at naming things, but I hope you find it useful.
