Setting up a Lab Environment

Mock tests are usefull for quickly iterating when writing a new getter of fixing a bug, but you do want to test on a 'real' device to make sure everything works as expected. One of the most convenient ways is to use an ASAv running on Virtualbox + Vagrant. @bobthebutcher has a nice write up on how to setup an ASAv with Vagrant.
