much easier to deploy new functionality such as you propose if it was integrated into an existing project framework (such as Rally).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt">Hi All,<br>
<br>
This is a follow up for OpenStack Extreme Testing session[1]<br>
we did in MEX-ops-meetup.<br>
<br>
Quick intro for those who were not there:<br>
In this work, we proposed to add new testing framework for openstack.<br>
This framework will provides tool for create tests with destructive<br>
scenarios which will check for High Availability, failover and<br>
recovery of OpenStack cloud.<br>
Please refer the link on top of the [1] for further details.<br>
<br>
Follow up:<br>
We are planning periodic irc meeting and have an irc<br>
channel for discussion. I will get back to you with those details soon.<br>
<br>
At that session, we did not have time to discuss last 3 items,<br>
Reference architectures<br>
We are discussing about the reference architecture in [2].<br>
<br>
What sort of failures do you see today in your environment?<br>
Currently we are considering, service failures, backend services (mq,<br>
DB, etc.) failures,<br>
Network sw failures..etc. To begin with the implementation, we are<br>
considering to start with<br>
service failures. Please let us know what failures are more frequent<br>
in your environment.<br>
<br>
Emulation/Simulation mechanisms, etc.<br>
Rather than doing actual scale, load, or performance tests, we are<br>
thinking to build a emulation/simulation mechanism<br>
to get the predictions or result of how will openstack behave on such<br>
situations.<br>
This interesting idea was proposed by the Gautam and need more<br>
discussion on this.<br>
<br>
Please let us know you questions or comments.<br>
<br>
Request to Mike Perez:<br>
We discussed about synergies with openstack assertion tags and other<br>
efforts to do similar testing in openstack.<br>
Could you please give some info or pointer of previous discussions.<br>
