** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  masakari-engine has two periodic tasks, one for processing 'new' 
notifications and the other for processing 'error' notifications But it doesn't 
have a periodic task for processing 'running' notifications.
  
  Looking at the code of masakari-engine, if the process of it goes down
  immediately after it changes notification status from 'new' to
  'running', then the notification which status is 'running' will remain
  will not be processed by periodic tasks.
  
  So, should masakari-engine's periodic task process the 'running' notification?
  (Although it need to make such a logic that main process doesn't compete with 
periodic tasks.)
  Or should the 'running' notification be handled by the operator?
  
  [Test Case]
- TBD
+ lxc launch ubuntu-daily:groovy g1 (or other corresponding release combination)
+ lxc exec g1 /bin/bash
+ sudo apt install masakari-engine
+ 
+ == expect test failure with old code ==
+ setup:
+ * copy new test code from patch to 
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/masakari/tests/unit/engine/test_engine_mgr.py
+ * modify 
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/masakari/tests/unit/engine/test_engine_mgr.py to 
set EXPIRED_TIME = NOW, and comment out call to 
test_check_expired_notifications since it doesn't exist without new patch 
applied.
+ test:
+ * cd /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages
+ * python3 -m unittest 
masakari.tests.unit.engine.test_engine_mgr.EngineManagerUnitTestCase.test_check_expired_notifications
+ 
+ == expect test success with patched code ==
+ setup: enable corresponding -proposed pocket
+ test:
+ * cd /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages
+ * python3 -m unittest 
masakari.tests.unit.engine.test_engine_mgr.EngineManagerUnitTestCase.test_check_expired_notifications
  
  [Regression Potential]
  A regression in this code could occur if either of the time intervals were 
calculated incorrectly which means a notification could be marked as failed 
perhaps long before the expiration interval. The defaults can be changed for 
check_expired_notifications_interval and notifications_expired_interval via 
masakari-engine config options which helps mitigate that risk. The defaults 
seem reasonable with a 10 minute periodic check and setting expired 
notifications to failed status only after 24 hours.
