<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Due to recent discussions around Enhanced Platform Awareness (EPA) and their testing in OpenStack thinking was started to take what Intel NFV 3<sup>rd</sup> party CI [1] runs at this moment and merge some/all into upstream Tempest. Currently
intel-nfv-ci-tests is a Tempest plugin [2] [3] and it’s running on all Nova changes , sample [4]. Merging them with upstream Tempest would give testing environments an option to turn them on with a flip of a switch in tempest.conf rather than pip install <giturl>
+ tempest run with all-plugin (to enable site_packages). <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">While some of them may be easier from technical stand point (hugepages) some of them may not be possible in cloud providers used by OpenStack Infra.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Both options: Tempest plugin, upstream Tempest have pros and cos and we’d like to get broader community to comment on that.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you have any feedback, suggestions, ideas please follow up here.<o:p></o:p></p>
