Open Stack

The QA team had its weekly IRC meeting yesterday. Here is a summary of 
the action items and decisions coming out of the meeting.

* Progress

  - Currently up to more than 150 integration tests

  - The dev-gate-tempest-devstack-vm Jenkins job [1] has run smoothly 
now for a number of iterations. There are still some issues with the job:

   - The job takes more than 40 minutes to complete on *some* cloud 
providers. Most of this time is taken by devstack installing the 
OpenStack environment via devstack into the utility VMs
    - Jim Blair upped the timeout to 60 minutes to help this problem
   - 2 test failures are consistently reproduceable
    - Working to fix both by end of week
  - Jim Blair added a nice report output [3] to the Jenkins job 
utilizing the nosetests xUnit output plugin (thank you Jim!)

* Action items

  - (jaypipes) Get dev-gate-tempest-devstack-vm Jenkins job [1] gating 
Tempest by end of week

* Decisions made

  - Going to start a rotating "QA captain" role [2] that is responsible 
for communicating an agenda for the weekly status meeting and a summary 
like this one for the meeting

* Blockers identified

  - Inclusion of python-glanceclient package in devstack has caused 
issues in the gating job. jaypipes working on fix for it with bcwaldon 
and dtroyer.

* Outstanding Reviews
