Next, you will create a test definition in the config file

## Adding test definition

1. Define a test called **mytest** and provide a value for the **template** key.

2. Specify template path relative to your project root, which is **templates/lab1.template.yaml**

At this point, your **.taskcat.yml** file should look like below.

```yaml
project:
  name: cfn-project
tests:
  mytest:
    template: templates/lab1.template.yaml
```
