+# Dry run the migration of an GitLab pipeline to GitHub Actions
+In this lab, you will use the Valet `dry-run` command to convert a GitLab pipeline to it's equivalent GitHub Actions workflow. 
+The end result of this command will the actions workflow writen to your local filesystem.

+
+## Prerequisites
+
+1. Followed [steps](../gitlab#readme) to set up your codespace environment.
+2. Completed the configure [lab](../gitlab/valet-configure-lab.md)
+
+
+## Perform a dry run
+We will be performing a dry-run against a preconfigured project in the GitLab instance. Before running the command we need to collect some information:
+  1. What is the project we want to convert? <span style="color:green">basic-pipeline-example</span> 
+  2. What is the namespace for that project? <span style="color:green">Valet.  In this case the namespace is the same as the group the project is in.</span> 
+  3. Where do we want to store the result? <span style="color:green">./tmp/dry-run-lab.  This can be any valid path on the system.  In the case of codespaces it is generally best to use `./tmp/SOME_DIRECTORY_HERE` so they files show in explorer</span>
+
+#### Steps
+1. Navigate to the codespace terminal 
+2. Run the dry-run command 
+   ```
+   gh valet dry-run gitlab --output-dir ./tmp/dry-run-lab --namespace valet --project basic-pipeline-example`
+   ```
+3. Valet should have printed the output files in the terminal. 
+4. Navigate to `./tmp/dry-run-lab` in the Explorer pane in codespaces and open `basic-pipeline-example.yml`. This is the converted GitHub Actions YAML file. 
+### Example
+ADD_IMAGE
+
+## View dry-run output
+The dry-run output will show you the GitHub Actions yaml that will be migrated to GitHub.
