 Patrole - RBAC Integration Tempest Plugin
 =========================================

-deployments to verify that only intended roles have access to those APIs.

 Quickstart
 ----------
-Tempest is a prerequisite for running Patrole. If you do not have Tempest
-installed, please reference the official Tempest documentation for guidance.
+To run Patrole, you must first have `Tempest`_ installed and configured
+properly. Please reference Tempest's `Quickstart`_ guide to do so. Follow all
+the steps outlined therein. Afterward, proceed with the steps below.
 
-Assuming Tempest is installed, the simplest way to configure Patrole is:
+#. You first need to install Patrole. This is done with pip after you check out
+   the Patrole repo::
 
-1. Open up the ``tempest.conf`` configuration file and include the following
-settings:
+    $ git clone https://git.openstack.org/openstack/patrole
+    $ pip install patrole/
 
-.. code-block:: ini
+   This can be done within a venv.
 
-    [rbac]
-    enable_rbac = True
-    rbac_test_role = admin
+   .. note::
 
-These settings tell Patrole to run RBAC tests using the "admin" role (which
-is the default admin role in OpenStack) to verify the default policy
-definitions used by OpenStack services. Specifying a different role
-for ``rbac_test_role`` will run Patrole tests against that role. For additional
-information about Patrole's configuration settings, please refer to
-:ref:`patrole-configuration` and :ref:`patrole-sampleconf` for a sample
-configuration file.
+     You may also install Patrole from source code by running::
 
-2. You are now ready to run Patrole. To do so, you can use any testr-based test
-runner::
+       pip install -e patrole/
 
-    $ testr run patrole_tempest_plugin.tests.api
+#. Next you must properly configure Patrole, which is relatively
+   straightforward. For details on configuring Patrole refer to the
+   :ref:`patrole-configuration`.
 
-or::
+#. Once the configuration is done you're now ready to run Patrole. This can
+   be done using the `tempest_run`_ command. This can be done by running::
 
-    $ ostestr --regex '(?!.*\[.*\bslow\b.*\])(^patrole_tempest_plugin\.tests\.api)'
+     $ tempest run --regex '^patrole_tempest_plugin\.tests\.api'
 
-It is also possible to run Patrole using tox::
+   There is also the option to use testr directly, or any `testr`_ based test
+   runner, like `ostestr`_. For example, from the workspace dir run::
 
-    tox -eall-plugin -- patrole_tempest_plugin.tests.api
+     $ stestr --regex '(?!.*\[.*\bslow\b.*\])(^patrole_tempest_plugin\.tests\.api))'
+
+   will run the same set of tests as the default gate jobs.
+
+   You can also run Patrole tests using `tox`_. To do so, ``cd`` into the
+   **Tempest** directory and run::
+
+     $ tox -eall-plugin -- patrole_tempest_plugin.tests.api
+
+   .. note::
+
+     It is possible to run Patrole via ``tox -eall`` in order to run Patrole
+     isolated from other plugins. This can be accomplished by including the
+     installation of services that currently use policy in code -- for example,
+     Nova and Keystone. For example::
+
+       $ tox -evenv-tempest -- pip install /opt/stack/patrole /opt/stack/keystone /opt/stack/nova
+       $ tox -eall -- patrole_tempest_plugin.tests.api
+
+#. Log information from tests is captured in ``tempest.log`` under the Tempest
+   repository. Some Patrole debugging information is captured in that log
+   related to expected test results and :ref:`role-overriding`.
+
+   More detailed RBAC testing log output is emitted to ``patrole.log`` under
+   the Patrole repository. To configure Patrole's logging, see the
+   :ref:`patrole-configuration` guide.

+
+RBAC Tests
+----------
+
+To change the role that the patrole tests are being run as, edit
+``rbac_test_role`` in the ``patrole`` section of tempest.conf: ::
+
+    [patrole]
+    rbac_test_role = member
+    ...
+
+.. note::
+
+  The ``rbac_test_role`` is service-specific. member, for example,
+  is an arbitrary role, but by convention is used to designate the default
+  non-admin role in the system. Most Patrole tests should be run with
+  **admin** and **member** roles. However, other services may use entirely
+  different roles.
+
+For more information about the member role and its nomenclature,
+please see: `<https://ask.openstack.org/en/question/4759/member-vs-_member_/>`__.
+
+Unit Tests
+----------
+
+Patrole also has a set of unit tests which test the Patrole code itself. These
+tests can be run by specifying the test discovery path::
+
+  $ stestr --test-path ./patrole_tempest_plugin/tests/unit run
+
+By setting ``--test-path`` option to ``./patrole_tempest_plugin/tests/unit``
+it specifies that test discovery should only be run on the unit test directory.
+
+Alternatively, there are the py27 and py35 tox jobs which will run the unit
+tests with the corresponding version of Python.
+
+One common activity is to just run a single test; you can do this with tox
+simply by specifying to just run py27 or py35 tests against a single test::
+
+  $ tox -e py27 -- -n patrole_tempest_plugin.tests.unit.test_rbac_utils.RBACUtilsTest.test_override_role_with_missing_admin_role
+
+Or all tests in the test_rbac_utils.py file::
+
+  $ tox -e py27 -- -n patrole_tempest_plugin.tests.unit.test_rbac_utils
+
+You may also use regular expressions to run any matching tests::
+
+  $ tox -e py27 -- test_rbac_utils
+
+For more information on these options and details about stestr, please see the
+`stestr documentation <http://stestr.readthedocs.io/en/latest/MANUAL.html>`_.
