Description

Use Case

Changes to the Resource API are currently not checked against bolt's usage of it. This can lead to unexpected and undetected failures until a new Resource API release hits bolt's pipeline.

Describe the Solution You Would Like

Clone a few of the tests from bolt (see BOLT-1385 for examples) to our side to ensure that changes going into the gem won't break existing code on the bolt side.

Additional Context

Originally filed as https://tickets.puppetlabs.com/browse/MODULES-9274.

Research direction

Start by locating the existing Resource API test suite and compare it with the Bolt-1385 examples linked in the issue. Identify the relevant Bolt usage cases and reproduce them as tests in this repository; done means Resource API changes fail tests when they would break Bolt compatibility.
