+======================
+Config Template Syntax
+======================
+
+For Dovetail tool, the config files are located in ``dovetail/dovetail/conf``, which are written
+in yaml format. As both functest and yardstick are utilized by Dovetail, their configuration files
+should be configured as follows, within the ``functest_config.yml`` and ``yardstick_config.yml`` files,
+respectively.
+
+Functest config template syntax
+-------------------------------
+
+An example functest configuration is shown as follows:
+
+::
+
+  functest:
+    image_name: opnfv/functest
+    docker_tag: latest
+    envs: '-e INSTALLER_TYPE=compass -e INSTALLER_IP=192.168.200.2
+           -e NODE_NAME=dovetail-pod -e DEPLOY_SCENARIO=ha_nosdn
+           -e BUILD_TAG=dovetail -e CI_DEBUG=true -e DEPLOY_TYPE=baremetal'
+    opts: '-id --privileged=true'
+    pre_condition:
+      cmds:
+        - 'echo test for precondition'
+    testcase:
+      cmds:
+        - 'python /home/opnfv/repos/functest/ci/prepare_env.py start'
+        - 'python /home/opnfv/repos/functest/ci/run_tests.py -t {{script_testcase}} -r'
+    post_condition:
+      cmds:
+        - ''
+    result:
+      dir: '/home/opnfv/functest/results'
+      store_type: 'file'
+      file_path: 'tempest/tempest.log'
+      db_url: 'http://testresults.opnfv.org/test/api/v1/results?case=%s&last=1'
+
+- ``image_name`` and ``docker_tag`` sections define the docker image pulled from the public dockerhub.
+- ``envs`` should be correctly configed according to the SUT(System Under Test).
+- ``pre_condition`` represents some cleanups or preparations.
+  ``testcase`` represents the testcases running cmds.
+  ``post_condition`` represents some cleanups needed after all testcases finished.
+- ``result`` section gives the directory of the dovetail tool test result.
+  ``db_url`` gives the database URL of the dovetail results to be stored.
+
+Yardstick config template syntax
+---------------------------------
+
+The configuration in ``yardstick_config.yml`` is similiar to ``functest_config.yml``,
+and an example is shown as follows:
+
+::
+
+  yardstick:
+    image_name: opnfv/yardstick
+    docker_tag: latest
+    envs: '-e INSTALLER_TYPE=compass -e INSTALLER_IP=192.168.200.2
+           -e NODE_NAME=dovetail-pod -e DEPLOY_SCENARIO=ha_nosdn
+           -e BUILD_TAG=dovetail -e CI_DEBUG=true -e DEPLOY_TYPE=baremetal
+           -e EXTERNAL_NETWORK=ext-net'
+    opts: '-id --privileged=true'
+    pre_condition:
+      cmds:
+        - 'source /home/opnfv/repos/yardstick/tests/ci/prepare_env.sh &&
+           source /home/opnfv/repos/yardstick/tests/ci/clean_images.sh && cleanup'
+        - 'source /home/opnfv/repos/yardstick/tests/ci/prepare_env.sh &&
+           cd /home/opnfv/repos/yardstick && source tests/ci/load_images.sh'
+    testcase:
+      cmds:
+        - 'mkdir -p /home/opnfv/yardstick/results/'
+        - 'cd /home/opnfv/repos/yardstick && source tests/ci/prepare_env.sh &&
+           yardstick task start tests/opnfv/test_cases/{{script_testcase}}.yaml
+           --output-file /home/opnfv/yardstick/results/{{script_testcase}}.out &>
+           /home/opnfv/yardstick/results/yardstick.log'
+    post_condition:
+      cmds:
+        - ''
+    result:
+      dir: '/home/opnfv/yardstick/results'
+      store_type: 'file'
+      file_path: 'yardstick.log'
+      db_url: 'http://testresults.opnfv.org/test/api/v1/results?case=%s&last=1'
+
+The main differences between ``yardstick_config.yml`` and ``functest_config.yml``
+are the ``cmds`` subsection.
+
+Jinja2 template syntax
+----------------------
+
+Jinja2 module can be used to config the ``{{script_testcase}}``. The
+parameters are defined in ``dovetail/dovetail/conf/dovetail_config.yml``:
+
+::
+
+  parameters:
+  - name: testcase
+    path: '("name",)'
+  - name: script_testcase
+    path: '("scripts", "testcase")'
+
+Here ``path`` is the path defined in the testcase configuration files.
+Take ``script_testcase`` as an example. For testcase ``dovetail.ipv6.tc001``:
+
+::
+
+  dovetail.ipv6.tc001:
+    name: dovetail.ipv6.tc001
+    objective: VIM ipv6 operations, to create/delete network, port and subnet in bulk operation
+    scripts:
+      type: functest
+      testcase: tempest_smoke_serial
+      sub_testcase_list:
+        - tempest.api.network.test_networks.BulkNetworkOpsIpV6Test.test_bulk_create_delete_network
+        - tempest.api.network.test_networks.BulkNetworkOpsIpV6Test.test_bulk_create_delete_port
+        - tempest.api.network.test_networks.BulkNetworkOpsIpV6Test.test_bulk_create_delete_subnet
+
+The path ("scripts", "testcase") means 'testcase' is the subsection of 'scripts' section. From above,
+by following the path ("scripts", "testcase") we can get the value of ``{{script_testcase}}`` is 'tempest_smoke_serial'.
