I am not sure how many of you keep an eye on this project.
From what I know, not many. I believe it is used in some CI _somewhere_... by _someone_.
The project is for testing libvirt-python APIs, but many test cases are not fully implemented until now.
And many of them are broken by design. I remember fixing one just out of sheer curiosity and it was hard not to go down the rabbit hole and get stuck in there.
We want to keep this project updated in the future, the following aspects will be considered to update the code: 1. Code style - Use inspekt to check code style. 2. Pythonizing the code - Replace all shell scripts with python. 3. Bug fixing - Some code bugs need to be fixed. 4. New features - Add more API test cases.
Good luck with that, it looks like the code haven't gotten a good scrub in years. Are you planning to use it somewhere? Will there be anything left after cleanups? =)
Actually we always use this project in our team. But the code hasn't synchronized to upstream for a long time. We have 3 guys working on this project now. And we Plan to synchronize our code with upstream recently.
Any feedback or suggestion is welcome. Let's work together to contribute to this project.
One suggestion could be too have a look at avocado-vt (what used to be autotest's virt-test) for that is being still actively developed. Although I have no idea what's your intention, so I might be just generating noise, in which case I apologise.
Yes, we also have the thought of integrating this project with avocado-vt. It will require much work to do. We will take this as our second step. Thanks a lot.
Have a nice day, Martin
Thanks, Ruifeng Bian
