QA (Quality Assurance) is an official OpenStack project team.

Project Team Definition

Official Title: OpenStack Quality Assurance

PTL: Masayuki Igawa (masayukig)

Develop, maintain, and initiate tools and plans to ensure the upstream stability and quality of OpenStack, and its release readiness at any point during the release cycle.

Projects

The OpenStack QA project team is made of multiple projects which each run independently towards the goals of the project team. Each project maintains a separate core team based on who provides reviews in those projects.

For the purposes of voting on QA Project Team activities, anyone that's core on any of the projects gets a vote.

As of 19Aug2014 'DevStack is part of the QA program.

Mission Statement

DevStack's mission is to provide and maintain tools used for the installation of the central OpenStack services from source (git repository master, or specific branches) suitable for development and operational testing. It also demonstrates and documents examples of configuring and running services as well as command line client usage.

Description

DevStack is an opinionated script to quickly create an OpenStack development environment. It can also be used to demonstrate starting/running OpenStack services and provide examples of using them from a command line. The example exercises were fleshed out beyond simple examples and became useful as a quick sanity check for the OpenStack installation. That sanity check became the basis for the Gerrit gate tests for all OpenStack checkins and continues in that role until Tempest takes over. These remain as the driving priorities for ongoing DevStack development.

DevStack is not and has never been intended to be a general OpenStack installer. It has evolved to support a large number of configuration options and alternative platforms and support services. However, that evolution has grown well beyond what was originally intended and unfortunately many of the configuration combinations are rarely, if ever, tested.

The simplest way to try DevStack is to run script https://github.com/makelinux/devstack-install-on-iso, which automatically installs Ubuntu in VM and DevStack without any manual configuration.

Project liaisons

To make cross project communication easier and fill gaps in domain expertise between projects and QA (bidirectionally) each project designates a liaison for handling integration issues. See QAProjectLiaisons.

Feature proposals

To propose a feature to any of the QA projects you first need to file a spec in qa-specs. The entire process is outlined here: qa-specs-process

Pushing Releases

The process for pushing project releases is documented here: QA/releases
