Rushi,

We're adding new tempest tests into our stackforge-api/ec2-api. The 
review will appear in a couple of days. These tests will be good for 
running against both nova/ec2-api and stackforge/ec2-api. As soon as 
they are there, you'll be more than welcome to add even more.

Best regards,
   Alex Levine
