The TC has specified that tests related to DefCore capabilities should
be located in the tempest tree [1]. Before those tests are used by
DefCore, they can be located in the project tree or a separate tempest
plugin tree. When DefCore identifies them as related to a capability it
is interested in including in its specification, the tests should be
moved to Tempest.
