[vdsm] May I apply for a user account on jenkins.ovirt.org to run VDSM functional tests?

[Yaniv Bronheim]

Zhshzhou, It sounds very helpful and we must use functional tests already as you mentioned.
 
Please inform vdsm-devel how to run those tests manually and how we can distinguish errors with that.
XML-RPC functional test cases are still in progress and there's a lot to add there, it might be useful to add wiki about those tests, what is covered and what we want to add

Ok, i think it's enough +1's and general approval from the community.
