+Refstack-client to run Defcore testcases
+-----------------------------------------
+
+Refstack-client `[8]`_ is a command line utility that allows you to
+execute Tempest test runs based on configurations you specify.
+It is the official tool to run Defcore `[9]`_ testcases,
+which focuses on testing interoperability between OpenStack clouds.
+
+Refstack-client is integrated in Functest, consumed by Dovetail, which
+intends to define and provide a set of OPNFV related validation criteria
+that will provide input for the evaluation of the use of OPNFV trademarks.
+This progress is under the guideline of Compliance Verification Program(CVP).
+
+Defcore testcases
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+*Danube Release*
+
+Set of DefCore tempest test cases not flagged and required.
+According to `[10]`_, some tests are still flagged due to outstanding bugs
+in the Tempest library, particularly tests that require SSH. Refstack developers
+are working on correcting these bugs upstream. Please note that although some tests
+are flagged because of bugs, there is still an expectation that the capabilities
+covered by the tests are available. It only contains Openstack core compute
+(no object storage). The approved guidelines (2016.08) are valid for Kilo,
+Liberty, Mitaka and Newton releases of OpenStack.
+The list can be generated using the Rest API from RefStack project:
+https://refstack.openstack.org/api/v1/guidelines/2016.08/tests?target=compute&type=required&alias=true&flag=false
+
+Running methods
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Two running methods are provided after refstack-client integrated into
+Functest, Functest command line and manually, respectively.
+
+By default, for Defcore test cases run by Functest command line,
+are run followed with automatically generated
+configuration file, i.e., refstack_tempest.conf. In some circumstances,
+the automatic configuration file may not quite satisfied with the SUT,
+Functest also inherits the refstack-client command line and provides a way
+for users to set its configuration file according to its own SUT manually.
+
+*command line*
+
+Inside the Functest container, first to prepare Functest environment:
+
+::
+
+ cd /home/opnfv/repos/functest
+ pip install -e .
+ functest env prepare
+
+then to run default defcore testcases by using refstack-client:
+
+::
+
+ functest testcase run refstack_defcore
+
+In OPNFV Continuous Integration(CI) system, the command line method is used.
+
+*manually*
+
+Inside the Functest container, first to prepare the refstack virtualenv:
+
+::
+
+ cd /home/opnfv/repos/refstack-client
+ source .venv/bin/activate
+
+then prepare the tempest configuration file and the testcases want to run with the SUT,
+run the testcases with:
+
+::
+
+ ./refstack-client test -c <Path of the tempest configuration file to use> -v --test-list <Path or URL of test list>
+
+using help for more information:
+
+::
+
+ ./refstack-client --help
+ ./refstack-client test --help
+
+Reference tempest configuration
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+*command line method*
+
+When command line method is used, the default tempest configuration file
+is generated by Rally.
+
+*manually*
+
+When running manually is used, recommended way to generate tempest configuration
+file is:
+
+::
+
+ cd /home/opnfv/repos/functest/functest/opnfv_tests/openstack/refstack_client
+ python tempest_conf.py
+
+a file called tempest.conf is stored in the current path by default, users can do
+some adjustment according to the SUT:
+
+::
+
+ vim refstack_tempest.conf
+
+a reference article can be used `[15]`_.
