+# CNTT Snezka RC Cookbook

+
+## CNTT Snezka RC
+
+
+### CNTT RI and RC toolchains
+
+- leverage on existing OPNFV testing knowledge and experience
+- conform to LFN CI/CD toolchain continuously deploying and testing NFVI
+- deploy locally the same components via
+  [Xtesting CI](https://galaxy.ansible.com/collivier/xtesting) in case of RC
+
+
+### TC integration requirements
+
+- enforce that the test cases are delivered with all runtime dependencies
+- avoid manual operations when configuring the server running the test cases
+- conform to the common test case execution
+- leverage on an unified way to manage all the interactions with the CI/CD
+  components and with third-parties
+
+**2 simple requirements: [Docker](https://www.docker.com/) + [Xtesting](https://xtesting.readthedocs.io/en/latest/)**
+
+
+### Run CNTT RC Cookbook
+
+- copy/paste the following commands:
+```bash
+virtualenv functest
+. functest/bin/activate
+pip install ansible
+ansible-galaxy install collivier.xtesting
+git clone https://gerrit.opnfv.org/gerrit/functest functest-src
+(cd functest-src && git checkout -b stable/hunter origin/stable/hunter)
+ansible-playbook functest-src/ansible/site.cntt.yml
+```
+- prepare the TC requirements (credentials, images, etc.)
+- trigger the job on the local Jenkins and send the final archive to
+  third-party certification
+
+**Try it, and you will love it!**
+
+
+
+## CNTT Post-Snezka RC
+
+
+### Update the OPNFV TCs
+
+- [port YardStick testcases to Xtesting](https://github.com/cntt-n/CNTT/issues/509)
+- [port Bottlenecks to Xtesting](https://github.com/cntt-n/CNTT/issues/511)
+- [port StorPerf testcases to Xtesting](https://github.com/cntt-n/CNTT/issues/673)
+- [port NFVbench testcases to Xtesting](https://github.com/cntt-n/CNTT/issues/865)
+
+
+### Increase the test coverage
+
+- [add heat-tempest-plugin to Functest](https://github.com/cntt-n/CNTT/issues/483)
+- [add KloudBuster to Functest](https://github.com/cntt-n/CNTT/issues/508)
+- [add tempest-stress to Functest](https://github.com/cntt-n/CNTT/issues/916)
+
+
+
+## Conclusion
+
+
+### Takeaways
+
+- the RI/RC model is very simple and pragmatic
+- it eases smootly integrating new test cases without extra logics and skills
+- it's already in-use in Functest Kubernetes which should be more than an help
+  for CNTT RC2 (see k8s_conformance and xrally_kubernetes)
+
+**Any contribution is more than welcome!**
