While doing pre-release testing, @catsby found that the tests added in #2162 won't work out of the box unless you've already used OpsWorks via the AWS console and have some default objects that the console creates.

As a short-term workaround this PR adds some instructions on how to get those default objects so that the tests will work.

In the long run we should rewrite these tests to create the necessary roles and instances profiles automatically, which will be a bunch more work and tackled separately so it doesn't block the current release.

@catsby I can confirm that just creating a stack with all the default settings is enough to get the console to make these default roles for you. I hope that's enough to get the current release unblocked, and then we can look at reworking these tests to create the necessary objects rather than presuming the existence of the defaults.
