Open Stack

Hi Goto-san,

I think this is an interesting test case. But AFAIK, Tempest and its
scenario tests don't have such test cases now, and we can't stop the
OpenStack processes through Tempest.

Do you know Grenade[1]? I think Grenade is the only one upgrading test in
the OpenStack community now. So I guess Grenade can test these kind of
tests but not yet though.

I'd like to clarify more. Do you mean OpenStack on OpenStack environment?
Or just mean VMs on OpenStack env?

Currently, Tempest can't stop the OpenStack processes. Because Tempest
can operate OpenStack components through OpenStack APIs only for now.
