+Development guidelines
+----------------------
+This section provides guidelines and best practices for feature development
+and bug fixing in Yardstick.
+
+In general, bug fixes should be submitted as a single patch.
+
+When developing larger features, all commits on the local topic branch can be
+submitted together, by running ``git review`` on the tip of the branch. This
+creates a chain of related patches in gerrit.
+
+Each commit should contain one logical change and the author should aim for no
+more than 300 lines of code per commit. This helps to make the changes easier
+to review.
+
+Each feature should have the following:
+
+* Feature/bug fix code
+* Unit tests (both positive and negative)
+* Functional tests (optional)
+* Sample testcases (if applicable)
+* Documentation
+* Update to release notes
+
+Coding style
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+.. _`OpenStack Style Guidelines`: https://docs.openstack.org/hacking/latest/user/hacking.html
+.. _`OPNFV coding guidelines`: https://wiki.opnfv.org/display/DEV/Contribution+Guidelines
+
+Please follow the `OpenStack Style Guidelines`_ for code contributions (the
+section on Internationalization (i18n) Strings is not applicable).
+
+When writing commit message, the `OPNFV coding guidelines`_ on git commit
+message style should also be used.
+
+Running tests
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Once your patch has been submitted, a number of tests will be run by Jenkins
+CI to verify the patch. Before submitting your patch, you should run these
+tests locally. You can do this using ``tox``, which has a number of different
+test environments defined in ``tox.ini``.
+Calling ``tox`` without any additional arguments runs the default set of
+tests (unit tests, functional tests, coverage and pylint).
+
+If some tests are failing, you can save time and select test environments
+individually, by passing one or more of the following command-line options to
+``tox``:
+
+* ``-e py27``: Unit tests using Python 2.7
+* ``-e py3``: Unit tests using Python 3
+* ``-e pep8``: Linter and style checks on updated files
+* ``-e functional``: Functional tests using Python 2.7
+* ``-e functional-py3``: Functional tests using Python 3
+* ``-e coverage``: Code coverage checks
+
+.. note:: You need to stage your changes prior to running coverage for those
+ changes to be checked.
+
+In addition to the tests run by Jenkins (listed above), there are a number of
+other test environments defined.
+
+* ``-e pep8-full``: Linter and style checks are run on the whole repo (not
+ just on updated files)
+* ``-e os-requirements``: Check that the requirements are compatible with
+ OpenStack requirements.
+
+Working with tox
+++++++++++++++++
+.. _virtualenv: https://virtualenv.pypa.io/en/stable/
+
+``tox`` uses `virtualenv`_ to create isolated Python environments to run the
+tests in. The test environments are located at
+``.tox/<environment_name>`` e.g. ``.tox/py27``.
+
+If requirements are changed, you will need to recreate the tox test
+environment to make sure the new requirements are installed. This is done by
+passing the additional ``-r`` command-line option to ``tox``::
+
+ tox -r -e ...
+
+This can also be achieved by deleting the test environments manually before
+running ``tox``::
+
+ rm -rf .tox/<environment_name>
+ rm -rf .tox/py27
+
+Writing unit tests
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+For each change submitted, a set of unit tests should be submitted, which
+should include both positive and negative testing.
+
+In order to help identify which tests are needed, follow the guidelines below.
+
+* In general, there should be a separate test for each branching point, return
+ value and input set.
+* Negative tests should be written to make sure exceptions are raised and/or
+ handled appropriately.
+
+The following convention should be used for naming tests::
+
+ test_<method_name>_<some_comment>
+
+The comment gives more information on the nature of the test, the side effect
+being checked, or the parameter being modified::
+
+ test_my_method_runtime_error
+ test_my_method_invalid_credentials
+ test_my_method_param1_none
+
+Mocking
++++++++
+The ``mock`` library is used for unit testing to stub out external libraries.
+
+The following conventions are used in Yardstick:
+
+* Use ``mock.patch.object`` instead of ``mock.patch``.
+
+* When naming mocked classes/functions, use ``mock_<class_and_function_name>``
+ e.g. ``mock_subprocess_call``
+
+* Avoid decorating classes with mocks. Apply the mocking in ``setUp()``::
+
+ @mock.patch.object(ssh, 'SSH')
+ class MyClassTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
+
+ should be::
+
+ class MyClassTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
+ def setUp(self):
+ self._mock_ssh = mock.patch.object(ssh, 'SSH')
+ self.mock_ssh = self._mock_ssh.start()
+
+ self.addCleanup(self._stop_mocks)
+
+ def _stop_mocks(self):
+ self._mock_ssh.stop()

+Automatic installation of Yardstick using ansible
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+Automatic installation can be used as an alternative to the manual.
+Yardstick can be installed on the bare metal and to the container. Yardstick
+container can be either pulled or built.
+
+Bare metal installation
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Use ansible script ``install.yaml`` to install Yardstick on Ubuntu server:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ ansible-playbook -i install-inventory.ini install.yaml \
+ -e YARDSTICK_DIR=<path to Yardstick folder>
+
+.. note:: By default ``INSTALLATION_MODE`` is ``baremetal``.
+
+.. note:: By default Ubuntu 16.04 is chosen (xenial). It can be changed to
+ Ubuntu 18.04 (bionic) by passing ``-e OS_RELEASE=bionic`` parameter.
+
+.. note:: To install Yardstick in virtual environment pass parameter
+ ``-e VIRTUAL_ENVIRONMENT=True``.
+
+To build Yardstick NSB image pass ``IMG_PROPERTY=nsb`` as input parameter:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ ansible-playbook -i install-inventory.ini install.yaml \
+ -e IMAGE_PROPERTY=nsb \
+ -e YARDSTICK_DIR=<path to Yardstick folder>
+
+.. note:: In this ``INSTALLATION_MODE`` mode either Yardstick image or SampleVNF
+ images will be built. Image type is defined by parameter ``IMAGE_PROPERTY``.
+ By default Yardstick image will be built.
+
+Container installation
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Use ansible script ``install.yaml`` to pull or build Yardstick
+container. To pull Yardstick image and start container run:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ ansible-playbook -i install-inventory.ini install.yaml \
+ -e YARDSTICK_DIR=<path to Yardstick folder> \
+ -e INSTALLATION_MODE=container_pull
+
+.. note:: In this ``INSTALLATION_MODE`` mode either Yardstick image or SampleVNF
+ images will be built. Image type is defined by variable ``IMG_PROPERTY`` in
+ file ``ansible/group_vars/all.yml``. By default Yardstick image will be
+ built.
+
+.. note:: Open question: How to know if Docker image is built on Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04?
+ Do we need separate tag to be used?
+
+To build Yardstick image run:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ ansible-playbook -i install-inventory.ini install.yaml \
+ -e YARDSTICK_DIR=<path to Yardstick folder> \
+ -e INSTALLATION_MODE=container
+
+.. note:: In this ``INSTALLATION_MODE`` mode neither Yardstick image nor SampleVNF
+ image will be built.
+
+.. note:: By default Ubuntu 16.04 is chosen (xenial). It can be changed to
+ Ubuntu 18.04 (bionic) by passing ``-e OS_RELEASE=bionic`` parameter.
