When you test your cookbook in Chef Test Kitchen and get the following error, delete the “Policyfile.rb” from your Chef cookbook directory.

$$$$$$ You must set your run_list in your policyfile instead of kitchen config. The run_list your config will be ignored.
$$$$$$ Ignored run_list: ["recipe[...::...]"]
       Preparing dna.json
       Exporting cookbook dependencies from Policyfile /tmp/...
       Error: Invalid lockfile data
       Reason: (ChefDK::DependencyConflict) Cookbook ... (...) has dependency constraints that cannot be met by the existing cookbook set:
       Cookbook ... isn't included in the existing cookbook set.
