How are we picking the OpenStack DefCore “must pass” tests? http://robhirschfeld.com/2014/01/07/defcore-critieria/
/WARNING LABEL: THE FOLLOWING SELECTION CRITERIA ARE PRELIMINARY TO GET FEEDBACK AND HELP VALIDATE THE PROCESS. /As part of the DefCore work http://robhirschfeld.com/2014/01/06/openstack-defcore/, we have the challenge of taking all the Tempest tests and figuring out which ones are the “must-pass” tests that will define core (our note pages https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/DefCoreTestCriteria). We want to have a very transparent and objective process for picking the tests so we need to have well defined criteria and a selection process.
