+Tempest master starts failing then, you can use the respective Tempest tag listed in OpenStack
+release page.
+
+For example: OpenStack Stein: Tempest 20.0.0
+
+* https://releases.openstack.org/stein/index.html#stein-tempest
+
+How to use Tempest tag on Extended Maintenance stable branch:
+* https://review.opendev.org/#/c/681950/

+     Default value of config option ``CONF.placement.region`` is updated
+     from ``RegionOne`` to empty string.
+
+     As per tempest design, if tempest conf is not having any region for
+     a service then identity region should be used. In case of placement
+     the default value is "RegionOne" which is considered as placement
+     region if region missing in tempest conf. In order to have identity
+     region to be used as default we need to change to empty string for
+     placement service. Empty string can be seen being used in other
+     services like volume, image etc.
