+Healthcheck
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+In Colorado release a new Tier 'healthcheck' with one testcase 'healthcheck'
+is introduced. The healthcheck testcase verifies that some basic IP connectivity
+and essential operations of OpenStack functionality over the command line are
+working correctly.
+
+In particular, the following verifications are performed:
+
+ * DHCP agent functionality for IP address allocation
+ * Openstack Authentication management functionality via the Keystone API
+ * OpenStack Image management functionality via the Glance API
+ * OpenStack Block Storage management functionality via the Cinder API
+ * OpenStack Networking management functionality via the Neutron API
+ * Openstack Compute management functionality via the NOVA API
+
+Self-obviously, successful completion of the 'healthcheck' testcase is a
+necessary pre-requisite for the execution of all other test Tiers.
