Quick Introduction

USM QE tests are:

• integration tests - which means that:

  • all Tendrl components are tested together in production like configuration
  • separate machine for each machine role is needed, and when more machines are expected to be assigned to a cluster role, we need to have at least 2 or 4 such machines for the role (depends on the role itself)
  • user facing interfaces are tested (eg. we use Tendrl REST API, but don’t interfere with internal structure of Tendrl Data Store)

• used in fully automated enviroment (including setup of all machines, which is automated via ansible)
• based on pytest framework, which is extended or changed via many pytest plugins
• written in Python 3.6 only
• expected to be executed from Red Hat (or CentOS) 7 machine
• maintained by USM QE Team
