 Runtime Arguments
 -----------------
 
-**--init-saved-state**: Initializes the saved state of the OpenStack deployment

-deployment that will be preserved from the cleanup command. This should be
-done prior to running Tempest tests.

-associated with the Tempest and alternate Tempest users and projects but will

+  projects but will not delete the projects themselves.
 
-**--dry-run**: Creates a report (``./dry_run.json``) of the projects that will
-be cleaned up (in the ``_tenants_to_clean`` dictionary [1]_) and the global
-objects that will be removed (domains, flavors, images, roles, projects,
-and users). Once the cleanup command is executed (e.g. run without
-parameters), running it again with **--dry-run** should yield an empty report.

 There are several options to control how the tests are executed. By default
 tempest will run in parallel with a worker for each CPU present on the machine.
-If you want to adjust the number of workers use the **--concurrency** option

 Any scenario test should have a real-life use case. An example would be:
 
- - "As operator I want to start with a blank environment":
-    1. upload a glance image
-    2. deploy a vm from it
-    3. ssh to the guest
-    4. create a snapshot of the vm

 Why are these tests in Tempest?

-        Resource cleanup must be able to handle the case of partially setup

+        Resource cleanup processes the stack of cleanups produced by
+        `addClassResourceCleanup` and then cleans up validation resources
+        if any were provisioned.
+
+        All cleanups are processed whatever the outcome. Exceptions are

+

+        but if they do they must invoke `resource_cleanup` on super.
