<font size=2 face="sans-serif">I have the same issue. I run a subset
of the tempest tests via nose on a RHEL 6.4 VM directly against the site-packages
(not using virtualenv). I'm running on x86_64, ppc64 and s390x and
have different issues on all of them (a mix of DB2 on x86_64 and MySQL
on the others, and different nova/cinder drivers on each). What I
had to do was just make a nose.cfg for each of them and throw that into
~/ for each run of the suite.</font>

<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">The switch from nose to testr hasn't
impacted me because I'm not using a venv. However, there was a change

Skipping tests in tempest via config file</font>
<br>
<hr noshade>
<br>
<br>
<br><tt><font size=2>Hi,<br>
<br>
I proposed a change to tempest that skips tests based on a config file<br>
directive [1]. Reviews were inconclusive and it was requested the<br>
idea be discussed more widely.<br>
<br>
Of course issues should go upstream first. However, sometimes test<br>
failures are triaged to a local/platform problem and it is preferable<br>
to keep everything else running by skipping the problematic tests<br>
while its being worked on.<br>
<br>
My perspective is one of running tempest in a mixed CI environment<br>
with RHEL, Fedora, etc. Python 2.6 on RHEL doesn't support testr
(it<br>
doesn't do the setUpClass calls required by temptest) and nose<br>
upstream has some quirks that make it hard to work with the tempest<br>
test layout [2].<br>
<br>
Having a common place in the temptest config to set these skips is<br>
more convienent than having to deal with the multiple testing<br>
environments.<br>
<br>
Another proposal is to have a separate JSON file of skipped tests. I<br>
don't feel strongly but it does seem like another config file.<br>
