salt.resources.dummy.modules.test

Provide the test execution module for the dummy resource type.

Lives at salt/resources/dummy/modules/test.py — its location in the per-type override directory makes it visible only to the dummy resource loader (via the per-type prepend in _module_dirs()), so no __virtual__ gate is needed. Standard salt.modules.test is shadowed by directory-order priority for jobs dispatched to dummy resources; managing-minion jobs continue to use the standard module.

salt.resources.dummy.modules.test.ping()

Return True if the targeted dummy resource is responsive.

Delegates to salt.resources.dummy.ping() via __resource_funcs__ so the result reflects the actual state of the resource rather than the managing minion.

CLI Example:

salt -C 'T@dummy:dummy-01' test.ping
