Hi guys,  
I use travis-CI for syntax checking.

Could there be a way let me include all ansible playbook in a same directory? (eg. - include \*.yml )  
That will help me a lot for maintain syntax test, otherwise when I modify/add a playbook, I need change it in test.yml too.

and also syntax checking seems don’t work for third-party module, if I play it directly it works fine, but when I add `--syntax-check`,  
it just show me " not a legal parameter of an Ansible Play".  
Is that a bug?

it won't work with include, but you can do this in shell:

ansible-playbook \*.yml --syntax-check

and yes, it should work with 3rd party modules
