+It should be noted that:

+  * any failed result highlights side effects for end users
+  * OpenStack scenarios which don't pass tempest_smoke_serial break the

+Key benefits
+------------
+
+ * the enduser can run all tests by setting only one input (EXTERNAL_NETWORK)
+ * the developer can only work on the test suites without diving into CI/CD
+   integration
+ * both OpenStack and Kubernetes deployments can be verified
+ * Functest test cases are trustable as they meet the best coding rules (unit
+   tests, coverage, linters, etc.)
+ * Functest can be reused in other projects (e.g.
