Just a note, please don't start a new thread as a reply to an existing thread.
(well unless you remove the In-Reply-To header from the message) There is more details on this here:

I almost missed this because it was part of a different thread.

This is a documented part of the tempest plugin interface:

Yes, but it depends on your plugin to pass the extra config options properly on sample config generation. If you look at your tempest plugin:

http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/kingbird/tree/kingbird/tests/tempest/scenario/plugin.py#n38

You're not returning the service_available option to tempest, just the KBGroup options. You need to add a tuple with the service_available option and group name to the output list there for it to show up in the output sample config file.

That being said I don't actually see the service_available kingbird option being defined anywhere in the plugin. For example see:

http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/zaqar/tree/zaqar/tests/tempest_plugin/config.py#n18

and

http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/zaqar/tree/zaqar/tests/tempest_plugin/plugin.py#n38
