Tempest API Tests for Neutron
The fundamental interface to the OpenStack services is a set of ReST API's. Other interfaces, such as CLI commands or the Horizon portal, are built on top of these ReST API's. As a consequence, it is of paramount importance to have tools to validate that an OpenStack deployment behaves according to the ReST API's specification.
Tempest is a set of functional integration tests intended to be run against actual OpenStack deployments. It is a functional testing framework that uses testools Python library as a base. Test cases execute a series of API calls against OpenStack service endpoints (like Neutron or Nova) and validate the responses received from said endpoints.
