I don't have any specific framework, just a general workflow.

* Install the packages.
* Verify everything starts up, service names:
        chef-client
        chef-server
        chef-solr
        chef-solr-indexer
        chef-server-webui (if installed)
        rabbitmq-server
        couchdb
* Check that the client was able to register using the validation.pem
* Generate a knife client config
* Interact with the API via knife (upload cookbooks, roles, add to a  
node run list, verify knife search works, etc)
* Log into the webui if its installed
* Anything else you can think of :-).

Note that on package installation for some of the init scripts, they  
say the service failed to start when it actually didn't. The scripts  
need a bit of tweaking to properly detect the PID vs the command-line  
of the running process, because the names change on startup.
