Initializing provider plugins...
Terraform has been successfully initialized!
You may now begin working with Terraform. Try running "terraform plan" to see
any changes that are required for your infrastructure. All Terraform commands
should now work.
If you ever set or change modules or backend configuration for Terraform,
rerun this command to reinitialize your working directory. If you forget, other
commands will detect it and remind you to do so if necessary.
Building
Create the distributable packages like so:
make get-deps && make bin && make dist
See these pages for more information:

Testing
Running the acceptance test suite requires an F5 to test against. Set BIGIP_HOST, BIGIP_USER
and BIGIP_PASSWORD to a device to run the tests against. By default tests will use the Common
partition for creating objects. You can change the partition by setting BIGIP_TEST_PARTITION.
BIGIP_HOST=f5.mycompany.com BIGIP_USER=foo BIGIP_PASSWORD=secret make testacc
