Usage

Git

1. Clone and change to the directory:

$ git clone https://git.openstack.org/openstack/python-tempestconf
$ cd python-tempestconf

2. Create virtual environment using virtualenv:

$ virtualenv .venv
$ source .venv/bin/activate

3. Source the newly created virtual environment and install requirements:

(.venv) $ pip install -r requirements.txt
(.venv) $ pip install -r test-requirements.txt

4. Source cloud credentials, for example:

(py27) $ source cloudrc

5. Run python-tempestconf to generate tempest configuration file:

(py27) $ python config_tempest/config_tempest.py --debug identity.uri $OS_AUTH_URL \
            identity.admin_password  $OS_PASSWORD --create

After this, ./etc/tempest.conf is generated.

RPM Installation (RDO)

1. python-tempestconf is installed together with openstack-tempest, as a new dependency (starting from the Ocata release)

# yum install openstack-tempest

2. Source cloud credentials, initialize tempest and run the discovery tool:

$ source cloudrc
$ tempest init testingdir
$ cd testingdir
$ discover-tempest-config --debug identity.uri $OS_AUTH_URL \
      identity.admin_password  $OS_PASSWORD --create

Note

In Ocata release new features were presented. discover-tempest-config is the new name of the old config_tempest.py script and it accepts the same parameters. More about new features can be found here

os-client-config support

python-tempestconf supports os-client-config so instead of sourcing openstackrc files you can use clouds.yml files. Location where these files should be stored and syntax which is used to specify cloud.yaml files can be found here

In case of git usage:

(py27) $ python config_tempest/config_tempest.py --debug --create --os-cloud <name of cloud>

In case of RPM:

$ tempest init testingdir
$ cd testingdir
$ discover-tempest-config --debug --create --os-cloud <name of cloud>
