Igor,

Benefits are in the Rally framework, engine and integrated tooling, that are doing very hard things to provide simple interfaces for writing simple plugins that are emulating complicated test cases. The major benefits are next: *1) Generalization* 1.1) One tool with one reporting system and one output format for all kinds of testing strategies (functional, load, perf, scale, ...) 1.2) One set of plugins (code) that can be used to generate all kinds of testing strategies 1.3.) One API for all kinds of testing strategies *2) Simplicity * 2.1) Plugins are really simple to write, usually requires one method to be implemented 2.2) Auto discovery: adding plugins == add code in special (or specified) directory *3) Reusability & Data Driven approach: * 3.1) Split code (plugins) & tests cases (yaml files) 3.2) Test cases is mixture of different plugins 3.3) Plugins accept arguments *4) Integrated tooling* 4.1) All results are persisted in Rally DB and you can access it in any moment 4.2) Results can be exported in different formats (you can write even own plugins for simplifying integration) 4.3) Detailed HMTL reports with task results overview and trends Before switching Fuel from ostf to rally, I would like to see feature > parity comparison.
