Octavia Tempest Plugin Configuration Options¶

pause_teardown¶

Type:	boolean
Default:	false

Whether to pause a test in global teardown.

The best use case is investigating used resources of one test. A test can be run as follows:

$ ostestr –pdb TEST_ID

or

$ python -m testtools.run TEST_ID

test_accounts_file¶

Type:	string
Default:	<None>

Path to the yaml file that contains the list of credentials to use for running tests. If used when running in parallel you have to make sure sufficient credentials are provided in the accounts file. For example if no tests with roles are being run it requires at least 2 * CONC distinct accounts configured in the test_accounts_file, with CONC == the number of concurrent test processes.

use_dynamic_credentials¶

Type:	boolean
Default:	true

Allows test cases to create/destroy projects and users. This option requires that OpenStack Identity API admin credentials are known. If false, isolated test cases and parallel execution, can still be achieved configuring a list of test accounts

tempest_roles¶

Type:	list
Default:	u''

Roles to assign to all users created by tempest

default_credentials_domain_name¶

Type:	string
Default:	Default

Default domain used when getting v3 credentials. This is the name keystone uses for v2 compatibility.

create_isolated_networks¶

Type:	boolean
Default:	true

If use_dynamic_credentials is set to True and Neutron is enabled Tempest will try to create a usable network, subnet, and router when needed for each project it creates. However in some neutron configurations, like with VLAN provider networks, this doesn’t work. So if set to False the isolated networks will not be created

Default:	<None>

Username for an administrative user. This is needed for authenticating requests made by project isolation to create users and projects

admin_project_name¶

Type:	string
Default:	<None>

Project name to use for an administrative user. This is needed for authenticating requests made by project isolation to create users and projects

admin_password¶

Type:	string

Default:	0

Additional wait time for clean state, when there is no OS-EXT-STS extension available

fixed_network_name¶

Type:	string
Default:	<None>

Name of the fixed network that is visible to all test projects. If multiple networks are available for a project, this is the network which will be used for creating servers if tempest does not create a network or a network is not specified elsewhere. It may be used for ssh validation only if floating IPs are disabled.

catalog_type¶

Type:	string
Default:	compute

Catalog type of the Compute service.

region¶

shelved_offload_time¶

Type:	integer
Default:	0

Time in seconds before a shelved instance is eligible for removing from a host. -1 never offload, 0 offload when shelved. This configuration value should be same as nova.conf: DEFAULT.shelved_offload_time, and some tests will run for as long as the time.

AZ to be used for Cinder and Nova. Set this parameter when the cloud has nova.conf: cinder.cross_az_attach set to false. Which means volumes attached to an instance must be in the same availability zone in Cinder as the instance availability zone in Nova. Set the common availability zone in this config which will be used to boot an instance as well as creating a volume. NOTE: If that AZ is not in Cinder (or allow_availability_zone_fallback=False in cinder.conf), the volume create request will fail and the instance will fail the build request.

Warning

This option is deprecated for removal. Its value may be silently ignored in the future.

Reason:	Tempest run all the volume tests against v2 or v3 API based on CONF.volume.catalog_type which makes this config option unusable. If catalog_type is volumev3 which is default, then all the volume tests will run against v3 API. Use CONF.volume.catalog_type to run the Tempest against volume v2 or v3 API
