What is Genie?

Cisco Genie is part of the Cisco pyATS testing framework, which provides (among various other features) a parsing engine and an extensive collection (1200+) of open-source parsers, found here: https://pubhub.devnetcloud.com/media/genie-feature-browser/docs/#/parsers. These parsers include various vendors in addition to Cisco, such as Juniper and F5. However, to date, Scrapli only provides support for the Cisco-based parsers.
