Hi,

Totally agree with you Andrey,
other use cases could be :
-for Ironic plugin, add test to validate that Ironic is properly deploy
-for LMA plugin check that metric and log are properly collect, that elk,
nagios or grafana dashboard are accessible
-for cinder netapp multi backend, check that different type of backend can
be crreated
and so on

So it would be very intersting to have enxtensibility ofr OSTF test
