URL: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/issues/4799
##### ISSUE TYPE
* Improvement Request
##### COMPONENT NAME
~~~
UI, marvin tests
~~~
##### CLOUDSTACK VERSION
~~~
4.16
~~~
##### CONFIGURATION
N/A
##### OS / ENVIRONMENT
N/A
##### SUMMARY
Currently it is possible to execute integration/smoke/component tests for
CloudStack through an external Python executor using marvin and nosetests. The
test runner can be invoked on a CloudStack management server or in a dedicated
server for the tests runner. The tests execution is decoupled from the
CloudStack management server and requires further work to explore/display
results.
It would be nice to integrate both sides to help administrators to easily
start these tests and check their results on the UI. Also, the administrator
would select which tests to run, update/add test data, etc.
The CloudStack management server could communicate with a new service in
charge of receiving the parameters passed by the administrator and invoke the
tests. This new service will also be reporting/sending updates on the progress
of the tests execution to the management server, so the information can be
displayed in the UI.
