A Vagrant is a tool of DevOps that can create and manage virtualized environments for testing and developing software.
For a DevOps interview question asking about Vagrant, the correct answer would be:
“Vagrant is an open-source tool for building and managing virtualized development environments. It allows developers to easily create and configure reproducible environments using simple, declarative configuration files known as Vagrantfiles. Vagrant supports various virtualization providers such as VirtualBox, VMware, and Docker, enabling developers to work in isolated environments that closely mirror production setups. It’s particularly useful for streamlining the setup process, ensuring consistency across development teams, and facilitating collaboration between developers and operations (DevOps).”
