-Starting during the Liberty release development cycle work began on enabling
-Tempest to run under both Python 2.7 and Python 3.4. Tempest strives to fully
-support running with Python 3.4 and newer. A gating unit test job was added to

-code at least imports under Python 3.4 and things that have unit test coverage
-will work on Python 3.4. However, because large parts of Tempest are
-self-verifying there might be uncaught issues running on Python 3. So until

-WARNING: run_tests.sh is deprecated and this script will be removed after
-the Newton release. All tests should be run through testr/ostestr or tox.
-
-To run style checks:
-
- tox -e pep8
-
-To run python 2.7 unit tests
-
- tox -e py27
-
-To run unit tests and generate coverage report
-
- tox -e cover
-
-To run a subset of any of these tests:
-
- tox -e py27 someregex
-
- i.e.: tox -e py27 test_servers
-
-Additional tox targets are available in tox.ini. For more information
-see:
-http://docs.openstack.org/project-team-guide/project-setup/python.html
-
-NOTE: if you want to use testr to run tests, you can instead use:
-
- OS_TEST_PATH=./tempest/tests testr run
-
-Documentation on using testr directly can be found at
-http://testrepository.readthedocs.org/en/latest/MANUAL.html

+Combining Runs
+==============

+There are certain situations in which you want to split a single run of tempest
+across 2 executions of tempest run. (for example to run part of the tests
+serially and others in parallel) To accomplish this but still treat the results
+as a single run you can leverage the **--combine** option which will append
