# bin-symlinks

The `bin/` directory in Ansible must contain only symbolic links to executable files. These files must reside in the `lib/ansible/` or `test/lib/ansible_test/` directories.

This is required to allow `ansible-test` to work with containers and remote hosts when running from an installed version of Ansible.

Symlinks for each entry point in `bin/` must also be present in `test/lib/ansible_test/_data/injector/`. Each symlink should point to the `python.py` script in the same directory. This facilitates running with the correct Python interpreter and enabling code coverage.
