What is RefStack?
|
|
#################
|
|
|
|
- Toolset for testing interoperability between OpenStack clouds.
|
|
- Database backed website supporting collection and publication of
|
|
Community Test results for OpenStack.
|
|
- User interface to display individual test run results.

Overview
|
|
########
|
|
|
|
RefStack intends on being THE source of tools for interoperability testing
|
|
of OpenStack clouds.
|
|
|
|
RefStack provides users in the OpenStack community with a Tempest wrapper,
|
|
refstack-client, that helps to verify interoperability of their cloud
|
|
with other OpenStack clouds. It does so by validating any cloud
|
|
implementation against the OpenStack Tempest API tests.
|
|
|
|
**RefStack and Interop Working Group** - The prototypical use case for RefStack
|
|
provides the Interop Working Group - formerly known as DefCore committee - the
|
|
tools for vendors and other users to run API tests against their clouds to
|
|
provide the WG with a reliable overview of what APIs and capabilities are
|
|
being used in the marketplace. This will help to guide the Interop
|
|
Working Group defined capabilities and help ensure interoperability across
|
|
the entire OpenStack ecosystem. It can also be used to validate clouds
|
|
against existing capability lists, giving you assurance that your cloud
|
|
faithfully implements OpenStack standards.
|
|
|
|
**Value add for vendors** - Vendors can use RefStack to demonstrate that
|
|
their distros, and/or their customers' installed clouds remain with OpenStack
|
|
after their software has been incorporated into the distro or cloud.
|
|
|
|
**RefStack consists of two parts:**
|
|
|
|
* **refstack-api**
|
|
Our API isn't just for us to collect data from private and public cloud
|
|
vendors. It can be used by vendors in house to compare interoperability
|
|
data over time.
