I'm announcing my candidacy for PTL for rally for the Newton release cycle. * My goals are the same - Work on road map to capture everybody's use cases and align them - Continue working on improving our review process and CI - Concentrate efforts on addressing tech debt (fixing bugs, cleaning up architecture and making it more testable) - Make contribution to Rally even more open (make road map more open) - Do the regular 1 per 2 weeks releases * Plans for the next release - Finish work that addresses Rally scalability issues (only one task left storing chunks of results to DB) - Finish distributed runner (we did all changes in framework except storing results in chunks, we will need just to implement new runner plugin) - Finish generalization of Rally (make Rally suitable for testing of everything, not only OpenStack) - Split Rally Core & Rally OpenStack plugins into 2 repos - Finish work on workload framework (create tests for network and disk testing) - Improve Rally Certification Tasks - Finish work on rally task v2 format - Implement mutliscenario load - Rally as a Service - Rally task Trends and Compare reports - Rally export results functionality (CLI and plugins for many systems) - Disaster cleanup (be able to cleanup env no matter what happened) - .... many other interesting tasks
