Hi,
For everyone's convenience, I've added to the pad short descriptions of Network Scenarios that are currently in tree (or under review) that I am familiar with.
Feel free to add/edit


Regards
Yair

> During the Atlanta Design Summit we have been assigned 20 minutes (
> http://junodesignsummit.sched.org/event/48ccd60090740ae80b4d1811b9a61303#.U12EsqbwBPq
> ) to agree on the Tempest testing that will be developed for Neutron
> during the Juno cycle. In order to make the most out of those 20
> minutes, we want to start the conversation ahead of time, so, to the
> extent possible, we concentrate on reaching agreement during the
> Atlanta session. To get the conversation rolling, here's an initial
> list of topics where we, as a community, need to reach consensus:
> 
> 
>     * Scenario testing. While during Icehouse we achieved a good
>     level of community engagement and coverage in API testing,
>     scenarios have received little attention, even though a few
>     developers made great contributions. During Juno, we want to
>     significantly expand this effort, along the following lines:
> 
> 
>         * We are looking for ideas for new scenarios from anyone and
>         everyone (dev, qa, automantion, manual, users, etc). There
>         are no bad ideas. We need ideas, not necessarily fully
>         formed blueprints, though the latter would be even better.
>         Don't let constraints (whitebox, multi-host, etc) to refrain
>         you from proposing an idea. We will sort through them later.
>         Ideas are our initial gap right now.
>         * Creation of blueprints for the agreed upon scenarios, so
>         potential contributors can volunteer to implement them and
>         progress tracking can be accomplished.
>         * Creation of a "how to" or "primer" wiki page on how to
>         implement Neutron scenario tests
>         * Documentation of scenario tests. While api tests are to a
>         great extent self explanatory, scenarios are more complex
>         and it's not easy for people other than the writers of a
>         specific test to understand. We need to improve
>         documentation.

>             * One solution might be to assign scenario tests owners
>             to keep them up to date and well documented
>     *
> API tests. The challenge in this area seems to be in:

> 
>         * Closing the gaps that might haven been left open during
>         Icehouse
>         * Adding new tests needed as a consequence of changes and
>         evolution of the Neutron API
>         * Define an on going process to prevent api tests to become
>         outdated or stale
>     *
