Upgrade testing
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Along with testing the distro versions defined in testing runtime, projects
need to take care of the supported upgrade path also. For the supported upgrade
path, projects need to make sure that new release code and its supported
configuration works on the distros supported by the upgrade-supported previous
releases of OpenStack.
With `SLURP <https://governance.openstack.org/tc/resolutions/20220210-release-cadence-adjustment.html>`_
upgrade support, along with release to release (N-1 -> N) upgrade we need
to take care of skip-level upgrade also.
#. non-SLURP release N (N-1 -> N upgrade)
Every non-SLURP release need to support N-1 -> N upgrade. In this upgrade
path, N (non-SLURP release) code and supported configuration should continue
working on distro versions supported and defined by the N-1 release
testing runtime.
#. SLURP release N (N-1 -> N and N-2 -> N upgrade)
Every SLURP release need to support N-1 -> N as well as the N-2 -> N
upgrade. In this upgrade path, N (SLURP release) code and supported
configuration should continue working on distro versions supported and
defined by the N-1 as well as the N-2 release testing runtime.
For smooth upgrade, try to avoid changes in dependencies which are not present
in old release supported distro. In case any project has to do it due to its
new features dependencies then communicate it explicitly in upgrade status
tool, release notes etc. Also, make it clear if project existing functionality
can still work fine on the old distro version but the new features require
the new distro version will not be available until the distro version is
upgraded.
Extending support and testing for release with the newer disto version

When any release bumps the minimum supported distro platform or python version,
the following things need to be addressed:
#. Support the old distro version also along with the new version. Basically two
distro versions will be supported in testing runtime for a release changing
the distro version. Explicitly mention about old PTI support in testing
runtime.
* For old distro version testing, we do not need to run all jobs on that
version, instead running a single tempest job in project gate on old distro
version will be sufficient.
* Make sure to keep the old distro default python version in testing runtime.
Example: :ref:`2023.1 cycle testing runtime <2023-1-testing-runtime>`
#. Do not add the new PTI (distro, python new version) to the non-SLURP testing
runtime. We may need to remove the old PTI which was additionally supported
for smooth upgrade in previous release. If we have to add the new PTI in
the non-SLURP testing runtime then we need to make sure the old distro
supported in the immediately previous SLURP release is also tested in the
next SLURP release. This will make sure that the old and the new distros are
tested between SLURP releases also.
The verification can be done via integrated testing and upgrade testing for example,
tempest, grenade or similar upgrade testing jobs running with default and supported
configuration.

Based on the criteria above, all Python-based projects must target and test
against, at a minimum:
* Python 3.9 (available as default in Debian 11)
* Python 3.8 (available as default in Ubuntu 20.04)
* Python 3.10 (available as default in Ubuntu 22.04)
Other than the above Python versions, Debian 11 has Python 3.9 as default which
we are not suggesting to run unit tests. We assume that anything that works on
Python 3.8 and 3.10 will also work on 3.9.
More details on Python requirements can be found in :ref:`pti-python`.
