The `_cache_schemas` call currently forces authentication even when the `auth_token` and `os_image_url` are passed. Instead of handling forced authentications, let the client use the passed arguments and authenticate only once if needed. This was not caught by the existing tests because the call to `_cache_schemas` was mocked. Change-Id: I93cec9a68cafc0992d14dab38114d03e25f1e5da Closes-bug: #1490462
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
Consume credentials via standard client environmental variables:
OS_USERNAME OS_PASSWORD OS_TENANT_NAME OS_AUTH_URL
Try not to require an additional configuration file
