  https://etherpad.opnfv.org/p/TestCommunityGoals  (trevc, 15:06:25)
  * Wenjing Chu  (wenjing, 15:06:52)
  * Jing Lu  (JingLu_, 15:07:35)
  * Discuss goals and priorities for D release  (trevc, 15:08:18)
  * Was difficult to describe exactly what was in Colorado  (trevc,
    15:08:33)
  * Morgan proposed making a summary (1 pager) of what is in the release
    (trevc, 15:09:33)
  * isn't this type of planning for Danube already too late per the
    release schedule?  (bryan_att, 15:11:44)
  * Several categories are described in
    https://etherpad.opnfv.org/p/TestCommunityGoals ... everybody is
    invited to comment and add items  (trevc, 15:12:18)
  * Need to be realistic as to what can get done. If not already tasks
    in Danube may not be possible but we should try and get started /
    experimental  (trevc, 15:15:29)
  * Bryan suggests organized as common goals and assign to releases
    (trevc, 15:17:31)
  * Will continue to take input and discuss until end of November and
    plan to take recommendations to TSC  (trevc, 15:28:24)

* Dovetail  (trevc, 15:31:39)
  * Wenjing presents on Dovetail  (trevc, 15:32:34)
  * Dovetail building test suite based on Colorado  (trevc, 15:33:09)
  * First Dovetail test suite uses Functest and Yardstick test cases
    (trevc, 15:34:40)
  * for putting tests into JIRA that we can track, see
    https://jira.opnfv.org/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=147&projectKey=DOVETAIL
    ; we need to continue the transfer of tests from the wiki to JIRA if
    we intend to use JIRA as a test tracking tool.  (bryan_att,
    15:42:23)
  * there are many tools available for documenting and managing test
    cases, such as Test Link, for example.  (dmcbride, 15:46:43)
  * the set of tests on the wiki
    https://wiki.opnfv.org/display/dovetail/Dovetail+Test+Cases are a
    start on a set of assertions, that on an earlier Dovetail call we
    agreed to start migrating to JIRA. But since that initial concept
    demo (the JIRA link above) no further tests have been migrated as
    there (AFAICT) has not been explicit agreement that we should
    (bryan_att, 15:48:25)
  * ... use JIRA in this way  (bryan_att, 15:48:46)
  * So I think dovetail needs to make a specific decision as to how it
    intends to manage the test assertion and case lists (they will be
    different, as cases will cover multiple assertions typically), and
    we need to know who specifically is signing up to do the work of
    populating the initial test assertion/case databases (if in JIRA or
    otherwise).  (bryan_att, 15:51:08)
  * so I'm getting that we do not intend to use JIRA for management of
    tests  (bryan_att, 16:00:46)
  * kindly reminding that we are running out of time  (yujunz, 16:02:18)
  * to me the topic is clear - where (in what tool) are we intending to
    manage the set of tests and what they claim to validate (test
    assertions)  (bryan_att, 16:03:54)
  * if the existing mongodb database has a way to do that, it should be
    clarified so we can start the process of populating it with test
    assertions in addition to the test cases  (bryan_att, 16:05:16)
  * having some tests, and having them generate some results, is
    inadequate. We need to know what those tests do specifically, and
    measure that against what we are expecting to be covered in testing.
    (bryan_att, 16:06:21)
  * I'm happy to jump in and start populating the data with other's
    help, if we can just agree what tool we plan to use and how within
    that tool we will achieve the goals of managing test coverage
    (bryan_att, 16:08:33)
