With the start of branchless tempest there are no long any tempest releases, but instead incremental tags for each OpenStack release milestones. The tag should be incremented to coincide with either a new OpenStack release, or the EOL of a supported stable branch. For example, the tempest-2 tag was added at the Juno release and was used to mark adding support for the Kilo release. The next tag tempest-3 will be used to either signify the start of L development or the EOL of icehouse, whichever occurs first.

=== Tempest ===

In addition, the tempest repository contains library interfaces based on https://specs.openstack.org/openstack/qa-specs/specs/tempest/implemented/reintegrate-tempest-lib.html
 
−
So we are releasing new tags in the middle of releases also for new library interfaces. Please see https://github.com/openstack/tempest/releases/tag/12.1.0 as the sample.

The procedure for pushing a new tempest tag is:
+
* Step1: Add Release note to mark the release
 +
** Example:
 +
*** Intermediate release https://review.openstack.org/#/c/514873/2
 +
*** Cycle release –https://review.opendev.org/#/c/685401/
 +
*** EOL stable release – https://review.opendev.org/#/c/703255/
 +
* Step2: Push release tag to openstack/release repo
 +
** Example:
 +
*** Intermediate - https://review.opendev.org/#/c/688613/
 +
*** Cycle release- https://review.opendev.org/#/c/685406/
 +
* Step3: Add release notes page after release patch is merged
 +
** Example:
 +
*** Cycle Release- https://review.opendev.org/#/c/687123/
 +
* Step4: Add releasenotes page link in openstck/release
 +
** Example: https://review.opendev.org/#/c/687619/
 +
* Step5: Remove the End of Support branch job from tempest gate if release is for end of support for any stable branch
 +
** Example: https://review.opendev.org/#/c/703646/
  
−
* Check the format of the existing tags

Hacking has a branch for every major.minor release. For example: 0.9.x and 0.8.x. The process for cutting a new major or minor release involves creating a new branch and pushing a tag (major.minor.0). At that point patches that fit the versioning requirements can be backported to the stable branch for maintenance releases.

This project follows the release model of Hacking (above), with a branch for every major.minor release (ex: 0.9.x and 0.8.x). Please refer to the above for process and procedure.

To perform a release, please first install npm on your system. Then, perform the following steps:
 
−

    # Check out the most recent master.

    git checkout master; git pull;
 
  
−
    # Ask NPM to update the package version, and tag the release.

Revision as of 22:16, 20 April 2020

OpenStack QA releases its tooling as per each tool release model and also needs to take care of the new branch set on devstack and grenade. This page explain the process and tasks QA team needs to do on every OpenStack release.

Project Releases

Project with release mode: cycle-with-intermediary

Tempest

Patrole

Project with release mode: independent

Below projects are with independent release and not associated with OpenStack cycle release.

Project with no release

Below projects are with no release and maintained as master version only.

  • coverage2sql
  • devstack-plugin-ceph
  • devstack-plugin-cookiecutter
  • devstack-plugin-open-cas
  • devstack-plugin-nfs
  • devstack-vagrant
  • karma-subunit-reporter
  • openstack-health
  • os-performance-tools
  • stackviz
  • tempest-stress
  • tempest-plugin-cookiecutter


Projects with only Branches

For the most part, Devstack and Grenade only have branches, which need to be cut when other projects get stable/* branches during a release.

  • devstack-plugin-container: hanled by devstack-plugin-container team.

Once all done then you deserve to go for beer \o/
