The HACKING.rst testing section is updated a bit to point out that we use stestr now instead of testr. Change-Id: Ia4417994def85c989df315ebc17f5a0b8e0c0e98

Running Tests
The testing system is based on a combination of tox and stestr. The
canonical approach to running tests is to simply run the command
tox
. This will create virtual environments, populate them
with dependencies and run all of the tests that OpenStack CI systems
run. Behind the scenes, tox is running stestr run
, but is
set up such that you can supply any additional stestr arguments that are
needed to tox. For example, you can run:
tox -- --analyze-isolation
to cause tox to tell stestr to
add --analyze-isolation to its argument list.
It is also possible to run the tests inside of a virtual environment
you have created, or it is possible that you have all of the
dependencies installed locally already. In this case, you can interact
with the stestr command directly. Running stestr run
will
run the entire test suite. stestr run --concurrency=1
will
run tests serially (by default, stestr runs tests in parallel). More
information about stestr can be found at: http://stestr.readthedocs.io/
