[openstack-dev] [Fuel][Plugins] add health check for plugins

Hi.

Sorry for bringing this thread back from the grave but it look quite
interesting to me.

Sheena, could you please explain how pre-deployment sanity checks should
look like? I don't get what it is.

>From the Health Check point of view plugins may be divided to two groups:

1) A plugin that doesn't change an already covered functionality thus
doesn't require extra tests implemented. Such plugins may be Contrail and
almost all SDN plugins, Glance or Cinder backend plugins, and others which
don't bring any changes in OSt API or any extra OSt components.

2) A plugin that adds new elements into OSt or changes API or a standard
behavior. Such plugins may be Contrail (because it actually adds Contrail
Controller which may be covered by Health Check too), Cisco ASR plugin
(because it always creates HA routers), some Swift plugins (we don't have
Swift/S3 API covered by Health Check now at all), SR-IOV plugins (because
they require special network preparation and extra drivers to be presented
in an image), when a combination of different ML2 plugins or hypervisors
deployed (because you need to test all network underlayers or HVs).

So, all that means we need to make OSTF extendible by Fuel plugin's tests
eventually.
