Open Stack

Hi all,

Ironic has reached a point where it is capable of being added to
integration tests and the gate pipeline. Does that mean we /should/ add it?
I think so, and I'd like to know what others think, but let me be more
specific about what I'm talking about.

At this point, it is possible for devstack to start ironic-api and
ironic-conductor services, register them with keystone, init the db, etc.
Then, tempest [1] can perform basic actions like create, update, delete
records. Testing the hardware drivers will come later, which is where we'll
see integration tests with glance, neutron, etc, become more important.

Roman has been working on enabling these tests [2] and I'd like to nudge
the reviewers of the tempest and infra teams to take a look at his patches.
At the very least, I'd like to make folks aware of this work so we can all
discuss it at the summit.
