Hi list. 

I'm investigating the notion of implementing a CMPI provider. I would
like to try to register one of the test providers in the source tree to
watch it do something. I see there are also test clients for those as
well. Can someone point me to the steps at maybe running one of those
tests? As far as I can tell so far, one would need to create a .mof
then run cimmof on it. Surely these are already created for these tests
somewhere. 

More specifically, I am running the cimserver that comes with centos
6.5. I then built the source tree to get a copy of cimcli (should that
have been in a package?). That works, and I can get other providers to
respond with data. I now have the test clients and provider modules
built in my bin and lib dirs. I just want to try to
register/install/whatever one or more of those test providers with the
existing installation. 

Thanks much for any direction.
