Hi,
just two or three notes from me:
- I had to find a suitable hardware first
- we spent quite some time to actually get OST up and running (missing CPU
flags issue in my case)
- he-basic-ansible-suite-4.2 failed because of package dependencies
(imageio, but probably related to what Sandro already mentioned)
- he-basic-suite-master fails for me because of the SDK version, but I have
not way to check which version is required
Just the last three issues cost me almost the whole day of playing with
lago and OST instead of actually thinking about improvements.
The contribution guide would help indeed as would better compatibility and
some better way of dependency management.
Btw, what would it take to allow ansible based tests? It should not be too
hard to generate an inventory file for the deployment and launch all
playbooks in the test directory. This would make contribution of simple
tests even easier I think.
Best regards
Martin Sivak

Feedback from the event:
- "if we want to add many more tests to OST, and I think we do, we need to
do some change there to allow that. Current framework is simply not
scalable enough"
- not joining the hackathon because "I'd be like an elephant in a
porcelain shop"
- "I'm not sure I'm OK with the flood of suites that we have - the more
we have, the harder it is to sync and maintain but more importantly - to
run."
- "We can't keep adding new suite for each parameter we want to test, it
adds overhead to monitoring, resources and maintenance."
- invite wasn't clear enough. I found people on #ovirt on Freenode and on
Red Hat IRC servers and redirected them to OFTC IRC server (my fault,
hopefully managed to workaround it by talking to people)
Lessons learned:
- Calendar invites to mailing lists doesn't work well, need a different
way to track mailing list members joining the events.
- Invites needs to be pedantic on how to join the event, not leaving space
for interpretation and misunderstanding.
- We need a contribution guide to ovirt-system-test: we need to make
people comfortable in trying to add a new test and we need to ensure that
we won't reject a day of work because the patch doesn't match core
contributors plannings on number of suites, resources and so on
- The ovirt-system-tests check patch script is not good enough. It
triggers too many sequential suites on every single patch pushed, and fails
due to timeout taking more than 6 hours to complete.
- The way ovirt-system-test collects rpms from defined repos is not smart
enough: it doesn't take the latest version of a given package, just the
first found in sequential order of the repos,
Thanks everyone who participated to the event! if you have time please
continue improving ovirt-system-test even if today event is almost
completed!
