 TESTS:
 
+- Add Molecule tests covering common NGINX use cases (web server, reverse proxy), enabling the NGINX stub status metrics, and NGINX Plus API and live metrics dashboard.
 - Update the platforms used in the various Molecule scenarios.
 - Use the local role name (`ansible-role-nginx-config`) instead of the fully qualified role name (`nginxinc.nginx_config`) in Molecule to ensure tests always work as intended in environments where the role has been already installed beforehand.
