+unittest2.TestSuite instead. See:
 
 https://code.google.com/p/unittest-ext/issues/detail?id=79
+
+Branchless Tempest Considerations
+---------------------------------
+
+Starting with the OpenStack Icehouse release Tempest no longer has any stable
+branches. This is to better ensure API consistency between releases because
+the API behavior should not change between releases. This means that the stable
+branches are also gated by the Tempest master branch, which also means that
+proposed commits to Tempest must work against both the master and all the
+currently supported stable branches of the projects. As such there are a few
+special considerations that have to be accounted for when pushing new changes
+to tempest.
+
+1. New Tests for new features
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+When adding tests for new features that were not in previous releases of the
+projects the new test has to be properly skipped with a feature flag. Whether
+this is just as simple as using the @test.requires_ext() decorator to check
+if the required extension (or discoverable optional API) is enabled or adding
+a new config option to the appropriate section. If there isn't a method of
+selecting the new **feature** from the config file then there won't be a
+mechanism to disable the test with older stable releases and the new test won't
+be able to merge.
+
+2. Bug fix on core project needing Tempest changes
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+When trying to land a bug fix which changes a tested API you'll have to use the
+following procedure::
+
+    - Propose change to the project, get a +2 on the change even with failing
+    - Propose skip on Tempest which will only be approved after the
+      corresponding change in the project has a +2 on change
+    - Land project change in master and all open stable branches (if required)
+    - Land changed test in Tempest
+
+Otherwise the bug fix won't be able to land in the project.
+
+3. New Tests for existing features
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+If a test is being added for a feature that exists in all the current releases
+of the projects then the only concern is that the API behavior is the same
+across all the versions of the project being tested. If the behavior is not
+consistent the test will not be able to merge.
+
+API Stability
+-------------
+
+For new tests being added to Tempest the assumption is that the API being
+tested is considered stable and adheres to the OpenStack API stability
+guidelines. If an API is still considered experimental or in development then
+it should not be tested by Tempest until it is considered stable.

+Reviewing Tempest Code
+======================
+
+To start read the `OpenStack Common Review Checklist
+<https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/ReviewChecklist#Common_Review_Checklist>`_
+
+
+Ensuring code is executed
+-------------------------
+
+For any new or change to a test it has to be verified in the gate. This means
+that the first thing to check with any change is that a gate job actually runs
+it. Tests which aren't executed either because of configuration or skips should
+not be accepted.
+
+
+Unit Tests
+----------
+
+For any change that adds new functionality to either common functionality or an
+out-of-band tool unit tests are required. This is to ensure we don't introduce
+future regressions and to test conditions which we may not hit in the gate runs.
+Tests, and service clients aren't required to have unit tests since they should
+be self verifying by running them in the gate.
+
+
+API Stability
+-------------
+Tests should only be added for a published stable APIs. If a patch contains
+tests for an API which hasn't been marked as stable or for an API that which
+doesn't conform to the `API stability guidelines
+<https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Governance/Approved/APIStability>`_ then it
+should not be approved.
+
+
+Reject Copy and Paste Test Code
+------------------------
+When creating new tests that are similar to existing tests it is tempting to
+simply copy the code and make a few modifications. This increases code size and
+the maintenance burden. Such changes should not be approved if it is easy to
+abstract the duplicated code into a function or method.
+
+
+Being explicit
+--------------
+When tests are being added that depend on a configurable feature or extension,
+polling the API to discover that it is enabled should not be done. This will
+just result in bugs being masked because the test can be skipped automatically.
+Instead the config file should be used to determine whether a test should be
+skipped or not. Do not approve changes that depend on an API call to determine
+whether to skip or not.
+
+
+When to approve
+---------------
+ * Every patch needs two +2s before being approved.
+ * Its ok to hold off on an approval until a subject matter expert reviews it
+ * If a patch has already been approved but requires a trivial rebase to merge,
+   you do not have to wait for a second +2, since the patch has already had
+   two +2s.

+Tempest Field Guide to Baremetal API tests
+==========================================
+
+
+What are these tests?
+---------------------
+
+These tests stress the OpenStack baremetal provisioning API provided by
+Ironic.
+
+
+Why are these tests in tempest?
+------------------------------
+
+The purpose of these tests is to exercise the various APIs provided by Ironic
+for managing baremetal nodes.
+
+
+Scope of these tests
+--------------------
+
+The baremetal API test perform basic CRUD operations on the Ironic node
+inventory.  They do not actually perform hardware provisioning. It is important
+to note that all Ironic API actions are admin operations meant to be used
+either by cloud operators or other OpenStack services (i.e., Nova).
