Details
-------
Common
~~~~~~
* Added Python 3.5 support
* Sync requirements with OpenStack global-requirements
* Start using latest way of authentication - keystoneauth library
* Start porting all scenario plugins to class-based view.
Specs & Feature Requests
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* `[Implemented] SLA Performance degradation plugin <https://github.com/openstack/rally/blob/0.6.0/doc/specs/implemented/sla_pd_plugin.rst>`_
* `[Proposed] New Tasks Configuration section - hook <https://github.com/openstack/rally/blob/0.6.0/doc/specs/in-progress/hook_section.rst>`_
Database
~~~~~~~~
* disable db downgrade api
* [require migration] upgrade deployment config
Docker image
~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Add sudo rights to rally user
Rally is a pluggable framework. External plugins can require installation of
additional python or system packages, so we decided to add sudo rights.
* Move from ubuntu:14.04 base image to ubuntu:16.04 .
Ubuntu 16.04 is current/latest LTS release. Let's use it.
* pre-install vim
Since there are a lot of users who like to experiment and modify samples
inside container, rally team decided to pre-install vim
* configure/pre-install bash-completion
Rally provides bash-completion script, but it doesn't work without installed
`bash-completion` package and now it is included in our image.
Rally Deployment
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Add strict jsonschema validation for ExistingCloud deployments. All incorrect
and unexpected properties will not be ignored anymore. If you need to store
some extra parameters, you can use new "extra" property.
* Fix an issue with endpoint_type.
Previously, endpoint type was not transmitted to keystone client. In this
case, keystoneclient used default endpoint type (for different API calls it
can differ). Behaviour after the fix:
- None endpoint type -> Rally will initialize all clients without setting
endpoint type. It means that clients will choose what default values for
endpoint type use by itself. Most of clients have "public" as default
values. Keystone use "admin" or "internal" by default.
- Not none endpoint type -> Rally will initialize all clients with this
endpoint. Be careful, by default most of keystone v2 api calls do not work
with public endpoint type.
Rally Task
~~~~~~~~~~
* [core] Iterations numbers in logging and reports must be synchronized. Now
they start from 1 .
* [config] users_context.keystone_default_role is a new config option
(Defaults to "member") for setting default user role for new users in case
of Keystone V3.
* [Reports] Embed Rally version into HTML reports
This adds Rally version via meta tag into HTML reports:
<meta name="generator" content="Rally version {{ version }}">
* [Reports] Expand menu if there is only one menu group
* [logging] Remove deprecated rally.common.log module
* [Trends][Reports] Add success rate chart to trends report
* [Reports] Hide menu list if there is no data at all
Rally Verify
~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Updating Tempest config file
- Some tests (for boto, horizon, etc.) were removed from Tempest and now there
is no need to keep the corresponding options in Tempest config file.
- Some options in Tempest were moved from one section to another and we should
to do the corresponding changes in Rally to be up to date with the latest
Tempest version.
