+    Supporting the role inference rules API gives Patrole an ability of testing
+    role chains, when one role implies the second which can also imply the
+    third:
+
+      ``admin`` implies ``member`` implies ``reader``
+
+    Now in a case of testing against an ``admin`` role (``[patole]
+    rbac_test_roles`` = ``admin``) the ``rbac_rule_validation.action`` calls
+    the ``rbac_utils.get_all_needed_roles`` function to extend the roles
+    and validates a policy rule against the full list of possible roles:
+
+      ["admin", "member", "reader"]
+
+    Here is few examples:
+        ["admin"] >> ["admin", "member", "reader"]
+        ["member"] >> ["member", "reader"]
+        ["reader"] >> ["reader"]
+        ["custom_role"] >> ["custom_role"]
+        ["custom_role", "member"] >> ["custom_role", "member", "reader"]
