python-glanceclient functional testing
Idea
Run real client/server requests in the gate to catch issues which are difficult to catch with a purely unit test approach.
Many projects (nova, keystone...) already have this form of testing in the gate.
Testing Theory
Since python-glanceclient has two uses, CLI and python API, we should have two sets of functional tests. CLI and python API. The python API tests should never use the CLI. But the CLI tests can use the python API where adding native support to the CLI for the required functionality would involve a non trivial amount of work.
Functional Test Guidelines
The functional tests require:
- A working Glance/Keystone installation (eg devstack)
- A yaml file containing valid credentials
If you are using devstack a yaml file will have been created for you.
If you are not using devstack you should create a yaml file with the following format:
- clouds:
- devstack-admin:
- auth:
auth_url: http://10.0.0.1:35357/v2.0
password: example
project_name: admin
username: admin
identity_api_version: '2.0'
region_name: RegionOne
and copy it to ~/.config/openstack/clouds.yaml
