kairoaraujo 0506379572 Initial seed of hacking
It is an initial seed of hacking rules based on neutron and
nova projects.
For ceilometer it prevents bug 1508442 and closes/prevents
bug 1529836.

All the requirements about the hacking rules were corrected
on this propose review.
To be clear about the requirements, the only alarmed was
about import[1], in specific H306
[H306] "Alphabetically order your imports by the full module
path. Organize your imports"

Ceilometer Style Commandments

Ceilometer Specific Commandments

  • [C301] LOG.warn() is not allowed. Use LOG.warning()
  • [C302] Deprecated library function os.popen()

Creating Unit Tests

For every new feature, unit tests should be created that both test and (implicitly) document the usage of said feature. If submitting a patch for a bug that had no unit test, a new passing unit test should be added. If a submitted bug fix does have a unit test, be sure to add a new one that fails without the patch and passes with the patch.

All unittest classes must ultimately inherit from testtools.TestCase.

All setUp and tearDown methods must upcall using the super() method. tearDown methods should be avoided and addCleanup calls should be preferred. Never manually create tempfiles. Always use the tempfile fixtures from the fixture library to ensure that they are cleaned up.
