Hi Edison,

Just curious, any update on the pytest effort? Thanks.

Highlights the improvements on marvin I made in these days on pytest branch:
1. Switch test framework from nose to pytest, while also maintain the 
back-compatibility for existing test cases.
     pytest is more flexible than nose, more enjoyable to work with.
2. Speed up test speed a LOT: It only takes 250-300 seconds for a single run 
for all the test cases under test/integration/smoke folder, while it usually 
takes 40 minutes to run before.
    The speed up is coming from running test cases in parallel. pytest-xdist is 
modified to fix the issue: 
https://bitbucket.org/hpk42/pytest/issue/175/way-to-control-how-pytest-xdist-runs-tests.
 we have a lot of existing test cases have to run in sequence per test class.
3. Add a new Jenkins job at http://jenkins.buildacloud.org/job/fastsimulatorbuild/, 
which only takes 22 minutes for a full cycle build&test.
     A new VM is created on digitalocean: 4G memory, 40G SSD, and added into 
Jenkins.buildacloud.org. SSD is life saver, it really makes big difference 
during build/test.
     A new docker image is created, which has all the tools installed in order 
to build and test: e.g. java/mysql/python/git/ installed.
     A new Jenkins job is created to build and test periodically in every 20 
minutes.

So far, the Jenkins job works very well, if everybody ok with what I am doing, 
I want to merge pytest branch into master later. With a quick CI in hand, we 
then can start to think about how to add gerrit into our system.
