We're in agreement here, I think. I will say though that if the people working on Mongo want to test it early, and go beyond simply using the client to manually confirm stuff, it should be possible to run the existing tests by building a different image and running a subset, such as "--group=dbaas.guest.shutdown". IIRC those tests don't do much other than make an instance, see it turn to ACTIVE, and delete it. It would be a worthwhile spot test to see if it adheres to the bare-minimum Trove API.

Of course we can do the old tests. And for this it might be the best thing. The problem i see is that we cant do real integration tests w/o this work, and i dont want to integrate a bunch of different service_types w/o tests that actually spin them up and run the guest, which is where 80% of the "new" code lives for a new service_type. Otherwise we are running fake-guest stuff that is not a good representation.

For the api stuff, sure thats fine. i just think the overall coverage of the review will be quite low if we are only testing the API via fake code.
