Expanded the best practices subsection in devdocs

As a part of reorganisation of developer docs, removed the
best practices documentation and made the subsections in it
as overall sections. More renaming and reorganisation will
be addressed in the following patches.

Building the Documentation
==========================
The documentation is generated with Sphinx using the tox command. To create HTML
docs and man pages:
.. code-block:: bash
$ tox -e docs
The results are in the ``doc/build/html`` and ``doc/build/man`` directories
respectively.

Caching Layer
=============
The caching layer is designed to be applied to any ``manager`` object within Keystone
via the use of the ``on_arguments`` decorator provided in the ``keystone.common.cache``
module. This decorator leverages `dogpile.cache`_ caching system to provide a flexible
caching backend.
It is recommended that each of the managers have an independent toggle within the config
file to enable caching. The easiest method to utilize the toggle within the
configuration file is to define a ``caching`` boolean option within that manager's
configuration section (e.g. ``identity``). Once that option is defined you can
pass function to the ``on_arguments`` decorator with the named argument ``should_cache_fn``.
In the ``keystone.common.cache`` module, there is a function called ``should_cache_fn``,
which will provide a reference, to a function, that will consult the global cache
``enabled`` option as well as the specific manager's caching enable toggle.
.. NOTE::
If a section-specific boolean option is not defined in the config section specified when
calling ``should_cache_fn``, the returned function reference will default to enabling
caching for that ``manager``.
Example use of cache and ``should_cache_fn`` (in this example, ``token`` is the manager):
.. code-block:: python
from keystone.common import cache
SHOULD_CACHE = cache.should_cache_fn('token')
@cache.on_arguments(should_cache_fn=SHOULD_CACHE)
def cacheable_function(arg1, arg2, arg3):
...
return some_value
With the above example, each call to the ``cacheable_function`` would check to see if
the arguments passed to it matched a currently valid cached item. If the return value
was cached, the caching layer would return the cached value; if the return value was
not cached, the caching layer would call the function, pass the value to the ``SHOULD_CACHE``
function reference, which would then determine if caching was globally enabled and enabled
for the ``token`` manager. If either caching toggle is disabled, the value is returned but
not cached.
It is recommended that each of the managers have an independent configurable time-to-live (TTL).
If a configurable TTL has been defined for the manager configuration section, it is possible to
pass it to the ``cache.on_arguments`` decorator with the named-argument ``expiration_time``. For
consistency, it is recommended that this option be called ``cache_time`` and default to ``None``.
If the ``expiration_time`` argument passed to the decorator is set to ``None``, the expiration
time will be set to the global default (``expiration_time`` option in the ``[cache]``
configuration section.
Example of using a section specific ``cache_time`` (in this example, ``identity`` is the manager):
.. code-block:: python
from keystone.common import cache
SHOULD_CACHE = cache.should_cache_fn('identity')
@cache.on_arguments(should_cache_fn=SHOULD_CACHE,
expiration_time=CONF.identity.cache_time)
def cachable_function(arg1, arg2, arg3):
...
return some_value
For cache invalidation, the ``on_arguments`` decorator will add an ``invalidate`` method
(attribute) to your decorated function. To invalidate the cache, you pass the same arguments
to the ``invalidate`` method as you would the normal function.
Example (using the above cacheable_function):
.. code-block:: python
def invalidate_cache(arg1, arg2, arg3):
cacheable_function.invalidate(arg1, arg2, arg3)
.. WARNING::
The ``on_arguments`` decorator does not accept keyword-arguments/named arguments. An
exception will be raised if keyword arguments are passed to a caching-decorated function.
.. NOTE::
In all cases methods work the same as functions except if you are attempting to invalidate
the cache on a decorated bound-method, you need to pass ``self`` to the ``invalidate``
method as the first argument before the arguments.
.. _`dogpile.cache`: http://dogpilecache.readthedocs.org/
dogpile.cache based MongoDB (NoSQL) backend
-------------------------------------------
The ``dogpile.cache`` based MongoDB backend implementation allows for various MongoDB
configurations, e.g., standalone, a replica set, sharded replicas, with or without SSL,
use of TTL type collections, etc.
Example of typical configuration for MongoDB backend:
.. code-block:: python
from dogpile.cache import region
arguments = {
'db_hosts': 'localhost:27017',
'db_name': 'ks_cache',
'cache_collection': 'cache',
'username': 'test_user',
'password': 'test_password',
# optional arguments
'son_manipulator': 'my_son_manipulator_impl'
}
region.make_region().configure('keystone.cache.mongo',
arguments=arguments)
The optional `son_manipulator` is used to manipulate custom data type while its saved in
or retrieved from MongoDB. If the dogpile cached values contain built-in data types and no
custom classes, then the provided implementation class is sufficient. For further details, refer
http://api.mongodb.org/python/current/examples/custom_type.html#automatic-encoding-and-decoding
Similar to other backends, this backend can be added via Keystone configuration in
``keystone.conf``::
[cache]
# Global cache functionality toggle.
enabled = True
# Referring to specific cache backend
backend = keystone.cache.mongo
# Backend specific configuration arguments
backend_argument = db_hosts:localhost:27017
backend_argument = db_name:ks_cache
backend_argument = cache_collection:cache
backend_argument = username:test_user
backend_argument = password:test_password
This backend is registered in ``keystone.common.cache.core`` module. So, its usage
is similar to other dogpile caching backends as it implements the same dogpile APIs.

Configuring Keystone with a sample file
=======================================
Keystone requires a configuration file. Keystone's sample configuration file
``etc/keystone.conf.sample`` is automatically generated based upon all of the
options available within Keystone. These options are sourced from the many
files around Keystone as well as some external libraries.
The sample configuration file will be updated as the end of the development
cycle approaches. Developers should *NOT* generate the config file and propose
it as part of their patches, this will cause unnecessary conflicts.
You can generate one locally using the following command:
.. code-block:: bash
$ tox -e genconfig
The tox command will place an updated sample config in ``etc/keystone.conf.sample``.
The defaults are enough to get you going, but you can make any changes if
needed.
If there is a new external library (e.g. ``oslo.messaging``) that utilizes the
``oslo.config`` package for configuration, it can be added to the list of libraries
found in ``config-generator/keystone.conf``.

Database Migrations
===================
Starting with Newton, keystone supports upgrading both with and without
downtime. In order to support this, there are three separate migration
repositories (all under ``keystone/common/sql/``) that match the three phases
of an upgrade (schema expansion, data migration, and schema contraction):
``expand_repo``
For additive schema modifications and triggers to ensure data is kept in
sync between the old and new schema until the point when there are no
keystone instances running old code.
``data_migration_repo``
To ensure new tables/columns are fully populated with data from the old
schema.
``contract_repo``
Run after all old code versions have been upgraded to running the new code,
so remove any old schema columns/tables that are not used by the new
version of the code. Drop any triggers added in the expand phase.
All migrations are required to have a migration script in each of these repos,
each with the same version number (which is indicated by the first three digits
of the name of the script, e.g. ``003_add_X_table.py``). If there is no work to
do in a specific phase, then include a no-op migration to simply ``pass`` (in
fact the ``001`` migration in each of these repositories is a no-op migration,
so that can be used as a template).
.. NOTE::
Since rolling upgrade support was added part way through the Newton cycle,
some migrations had already been added to the legacy repository
(``keystone/common/sql/migrate_repo``). This repository is now closed and
no new migrations should be added (except for backporting of previous
placeholders).
In order to support rolling upgrades, where two releases of keystone briefly
operate side-by-side using the same database without downtime, each phase of
the migration must adhere to following constraints:
These triggers should be removed in the contract phase. There are further
restrictions as to what can and cannot be included in migration scripts in each
phase:
Expand phase:
Only additive schema changes are allowed, such as new columns, tables,
indices, and triggers.
Data insertion, modification, and removal is not allowed.
Triggers must be created to keep data in sync between the previous release
and the next release. Data written by the previous release must be readable
by both the previous release and the next release. Data written by the next
release must be readable by both the next release and the previous release.
In cases it is not possible for triggers to maintain data integrity across
multiple schemas, writing data should be forbidden using triggers.
Data Migration phase:
Data is allowed to be inserted, updated, and deleted.
No schema changes are allowed.
Contract phase:
Only contractive schema changes are allowed, such as dropping or altering
columns, tables, indices, and triggers.
Data insertion, modification, and removal is not allowed.
Triggers created during the expand phase must be dropped.

`SQLAlchemy-migrate`_.

Developing ``doctor`` checks
============================
As noted in the section above, keystone's management CLI provides various tools
for administrating OpenStack Identity. One of those tools is called
``keystone-manage doctor`` and it is responsible for performing health checks
about the deployment. If ``keystone-manage doctor`` detects a symptom, it
will provide the operator with suggestions to improve the overall health of the
deployment. This section is dedicated to documenting how to write symptoms for
``doctor``.
The ``doctor`` tool consists of a list of symptoms. Each symptom is something
that we can check against, and provide a warning for if we detect a
misconfiguration. The ``doctor`` module is located in
:py:mod:`keystone.cmd.doctor`. The current checks are based heavily on
inspecting configuration values. As a result, many of the submodules within the
``doctor`` module are named after the configuration section for the symptoms
they check. For example, if we want to ensure the ``keystone.conf [DEFAULT]
max_token_size`` option is properly configured for whatever ``keystone.conf
[token] provider`` is set to, we can place that symptom in a module called
:py:mod:`keystone.cmd.doctor.tokens`. The symptom will be loaded by
importing the ``doctor`` module, which is done when ``keystone-manage doctor``
is invoked from the command line. When adding new symptoms, it's important to
remember to add new modules to the ``SYMPTOM_MODULES`` list in
:py:mod:`keystone.cmd.doctor.__init__`. Doing that will ensure ``doctor``
discovers properly named symptoms when executed.
Now that we know symptoms are organized according to configuration sections,
and how to add them, how exactly do we write a new symptom? ``doctor`` will
automatically discover new symptoms by inspecting the methods of each symptom
module (i.e. ``SYMPTOM_MODULES``). If a method declaration starts with
``def symptom_`` it is considered a symptom that ``doctor`` should check for,
and it should be run. The naming of the symptom, or method name, is extremely
important since ``doctor`` will use it to describe what it's doing to whoever
runs ``doctor``. In addition to a well named method, we also need to provide a
complete documentation string for the method. If ``doctor`` detects a symptom,
it will use the method's documentation string as feedback to the operator. It
should describe why the check is being done, why it was triggered, and possible
solutions to cure the symptom. For examples of this, see the existing symptoms
in any of ``doctor``'s symptom modules.
The last step is evaluating the logic within the symptom. As previously stated,
``doctor`` will check for a symptom if methods within specific symptom modules
make a specific naming convention. In order for ``doctor`` to suggest feedback,
it needs to know whether or not the symptom is actually present. We accomplish
this by making all symptoms return ``True`` when a symptom is present. When a
symptom evaluates to ``False``, ``doctor`` will move along to the next symptom
in the list since. If the deployment isn't suffering for a specific symptom,
``doctor`` should not suggest any actions related to that symptom (i.e. if
you have your cholesterol under control, why would a physician recommend
cholesterol medication if you don't need it).
To summarize:
- Symptoms should live in modules named according to the most relevant
configuration section they apply to. This ensure we keep our symptoms
organized, grouped, and easy to find.
- When writing symptoms for a new section, remember to add the module name to
the ``SYMPTOM_MODULES`` list in :py:mod:`keystone.cmd.doctor.__init__`.
- Remember to use a good name for the symptom method signature and to prepend
it with ``symptom_`` in order for it to be discovered automatically by
``doctor``.
- Symptoms have to evaluate to ``True`` in order to provide feedback to
operators.
- Symptoms should have very thorough documentation strings that describe the
symptom, side-effects of the symptom, and ways to remedy it.
For examples, feel free to run ``doctor`` locally using ``keystone-manage`` and
inspect the existing symptoms.

Filtering responsibilities between controllers and drivers
==========================================================
Keystone supports the specification of filtering on list queries as part of the
v3 identity API. By default these queries are satisfied in the controller
class when a controller calls the ``wrap_collection`` method at the end of a
``list_{entity}`` method. However, to enable optimum performance, any driver
can implement some or all of the specified filters (for example, by adding
filtering to the generated SQL statements to generate the list).
The communication of the filter details between the controller level and its
drivers is handled by the passing of a reference to a Hints object,
which is a list of dicts describing the filters. A driver that satisfies a
filter must delete the filter from the Hints object so that when it is returned
to the controller level, it knows to only execute any unsatisfied
filters.
The contract for a driver for ``list_{entity}`` methods is therefore:
* It MUST return a list of entities of the specified type
* It MAY either just return all such entities, or alternatively reduce the
list by filtering for one or more of the specified filters in the passed
Hints reference, and removing any such satisfied filters. An exception to
this is that for identity drivers that support domains, then they should
at least support filtering by domain_id.

Identity entity ID management between controllers and drivers
=============================================================
Keystone supports the option of having domain-specific backends for the
identity driver (i.e. for user and group storage), allowing, for example,
a different LDAP server for each domain. To ensure that Keystone can determine
to which backend it should route an API call, starting with Juno, the
identity manager will, provided that domain-specific backends are enabled,
build on-the-fly a persistent mapping table between Keystone Public IDs that
are presented to the controller and the domain that holds the entity, along
with whatever local ID is understood by the driver. This hides, for instance,
the LDAP specifics of whatever ID is being used.
To ensure backward compatibility, the default configuration of either a
single SQL or LDAP backend for Identity will not use the mapping table,
meaning that public facing IDs will be the unchanged. If keeping these IDs
the same for the default LDAP backend is not required, then setting the
configuration variable ``backward_compatible_ids`` to ``False`` will enable
the mapping for the default LDAP driver, hence hiding the LDAP specifics of the
IDs being used.

Initializing Keystone
=====================
Before using keystone, it is necessary to create the database tables and ensures
the database schemas are up to date, perform the following:
.. code-block:: bash
$ keystone-manage db_sync
If the above commands result in a ``KeyError``, or they fail on a
``.pyc`` file with the message, ``You can only have one Python script per
version``, then it is possible that there are out-of-date compiled Python
bytecode files in the Keystone directory tree that are causing problems. This
can occur if you have previously installed and ran older versions of Keystone.
These out-of-date files can be easily removed by running a command like the
following from the Keystone root project directory:
.. code-block:: bash
$ find . -name "*.pyc" -delete
Initial Sample Data
-------------------
There is an included script which is helpful in setting up some initial sample
data for use with keystone:
.. code-block:: bash
$ ADMIN_PASSWORD=s3cr3t tools/sample_data.sh
Once run, you can see the sample data that has been created by using the
`python-openstackclient`_ command-line interface:
.. code-block:: bash
$ export OS_USERNAME=admin
$ export OS_PASSWORD=s3cr3t
$ export OS_PROJECT_NAME=admin
$ export OS_USER_DOMAIN_ID=default
$ export OS_PROJECT_DOMAIN_ID=default
$ export OS_IDENTITY_API_VERSION=3
$ export OS_AUTH_URL=http://localhost:5000/v3
$ openstack user list
The `python-openstackclient`_ can be installed using the following:
.. code-block:: bash
$ pip install python-openstackclient
.. _`python-openstackclient`: https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/python-openstackclient

Interacting with Keystone
=========================
You can also interact with keystone through its REST API. There is a Python
keystone client library `python-keystoneclient`_ which interacts exclusively
through the REST API, and a command-line interface `python-openstackclient`_
command-line interface.

Entity list truncation by drivers
=================================
Keystone supports the ability for a deployment to restrict the number of
entries returned from ``list_{entity}`` methods, typically to prevent poorly
formed searches (e.g. without sufficient filters) from becoming a performance
issue.
These limits are set in the configuration file, either for a specific driver or
across all drivers. These limits are read at the Manager level and passed into
individual drivers as part of the Hints list object. A driver should try and
honor any such limit if possible, but if it is unable to do so then it may
ignore it (and the truncation of the returned list of entities will happen at
the controller level).

Release Notes
=============
The Keystone team uses `reno
<https://docs.openstack.org/developer/reno/usage.html>`_ to generate release
notes. These are important user-facing documents that must be included when a
user or operator facing change is performed, like a bug-fix or a new feature. A
release note should be included in the same patch the work is being performed.
Release notes should be easy to read and maintain; should link back to
appropriate documentation readers may need. The following conventions help the
team ensure all release notes achieve those goals.
Most release notes either describe bug fixes or announce support for new
features, both of which are tracked using Launchpad. When creating a release
note that communicates a bug fix, use the bug number in the name of the note:
.. code-block:: bash
$ reno new bug-1652012
Created new notes file in releasenotes/notes/bug-1652012-7c53b9702b10084d.yaml
The body of the release note should clearly explain how the impact will affect
users and operators. It should also include why the change was necessary but
not be overspecific about implementation details, as that can be found in the
commit. It should contain a properly formatted link in reStructuredText that
points back to the original bug report used to track the fix. This makes
reading release notes easier because readers can get a quick summary of the
change, understand how it is going to impact them, and follow a link to more
detail if they choose.
.. code-block:: yaml
---
fixes:
- |
[`bug 1652012 <https://bugs.launchpad.net/keystone/+bug/1652012>`_]
Changes the token_model to return is_admin_project False if the
attribute is not defined. Returning True for this has the potential to
be dangerous and the given reason for keeping it True was strictly for
backwards compatability.
Release notes detailing feature work follow the same basic format, but instead
of using the bug number in the name of the release note, use the blueprint slug
used to track the feature work:
.. code-block:: bash
$ reno new bp-support-fizzbangs
Created new notes file in releasenotes/notes/bp-support-fizzbangs-d8f6a3d81c2a465f.yaml
Just like release notes communicating bug fixes, release notes detailing
feature work must contain a link back to the blueprint. Readers should be able
to easily discover all patches that implement the feature, as well as find
links to the full specification and documentation. All of this is typically
found in the blueprint registered in Launchpad.
.. code-block:: yaml
---
features:
- >
[`blueprint support-fizzbangs<https://blueprints.launchpad.net/keystone/+spec/support-fizzbangs>`_]
Keystone now fully supports the usage of fizzbangs.
In the rare case there is a release note that does not pertain to a bug or
feature work, use a sensible slug and include any documentation relating to the
note. We can iterate on the content and application of the release note during
the review process.
For more information on how and when to create release notes, see the
`project-team-guide <https://docs.openstack.org/project-team-guide/release-management.html#how-to-add-new-release-notes>`_.

Testing Keystone
================
Running Tests
-------------
Before running tests, you should have ``tox`` installed and available in your
environment (in addition to the other external dependencies in
:doc:`development_environment`):
.. code-block:: bash
$ pip install tox
.. NOTE::
You may need to perform both the above operation and the next inside a
python virtualenv, or prefix the above command with ``sudo``, depending on
your preference.
To execute the full suite of tests maintained within Keystone, simply run:
.. code-block:: bash
$ tox
This iterates over multiple configuration variations, and uses external
projects to do light integration testing to verify the Identity API against
other projects.
.. NOTE::
The first time you run ``tox``, it will take additional time to build
virtualenvs. You can later use the ``-r`` option with ``tox`` to rebuild
your virtualenv in a similar manner.
To run tests for one or more specific test environments (for example, the most
common configuration of Python 2.7 and PEP-8), list the environments with the
``-e`` option, separated by spaces:
.. code-block:: bash
$ tox -e py27,pep8
See ``tox.ini`` for the full list of available test environments.
Running with PDB
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Using PDB breakpoints with tox and testr normally doesn't work since the tests
just fail with a BdbQuit exception rather than stopping at the breakpoint.
To run with PDB breakpoints during testing, use the ``debug`` tox environment
rather than ``py27``. Here's an example, passing the name of a test since
you'll normally only want to run the test that hits your breakpoint:
.. code-block:: bash
$ tox -e debug keystone.tests.unit.test_auth.AuthWithToken.test_belongs_to
For reference, the ``debug`` tox environment implements the instructions
here: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Testr#Debugging_.28pdb.29_Tests
Disabling Stream Capture
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The stdout, stderr and log messages generated during a test are captured and
in the event of a test failure those streams will be printed to the terminal
along with the traceback. The data is discarded for passing tests.
Each stream has an environment variable that can be used to force captured
data to be discarded even if the test fails: `OS_STDOUT_CAPTURE` for stdout,
`OS_STDERR_CAPTURE` for stderr and `OS_LOG_CAPTURE` for logging. If the value
of the environment variable is not one of (True, true, 1, yes) the stream will
be discarded. All three variables default to 1.
For example, to discard logging data during a test run:
.. code-block:: bash
$ OS_LOG_CAPTURE=0 tox -e py27
Tests Structure
---------------
Not all of the tests in the ``keystone/tests/unit`` directory are strictly unit
tests. Keystone intentionally includes tests that run the service locally and
drives the entire configuration to achieve basic functional testing.
For the functional tests, an in-memory key-value store or in-memory SQLite
database is used to keep the tests fast.
Within the tests directory, the general structure of the backend tests is a
basic set of tests represented under a test class, and then subclasses of those
tests under other classes with different configurations to drive different
backends through the APIs. To add tests covering all drivers, update the base
test class in ``test_backend.py``.
.. NOTE::
The structure of backend testing is in transition, migrating from having
all classes in a single file (test_backend.py) to one where there is a
directory structure to reduce the size of the test files. See:
- :mod:`keystone.tests.unit.backend.role`
- :mod:`keystone.tests.unit.backend.domain_config`
To add new drivers, subclass the base class at ``test_backend.py`` (look
towards ``test_backend_sql.py`` for examples) and update the configuration of
the test class in ``setUp()``.
For example, ``test_backend.py`` has a sequence of tests under the class
:class:`~keystone.tests.unit.test_backend.IdentityTests` that will work with
the default drivers as configured in this project's etc/ directory.
``test_backend_sql.py`` subclasses those tests, changing the configuration by
overriding with configuration files stored in the ``tests/unit/config_files``
directory aimed at enabling the SQL backend for the Identity module.
:class:`keystone.tests.unit.test_v2_keystoneclient.ClientDrivenTestCase`
uses the installed python-keystoneclient, verifying it against a temporarily
running local keystone instance to explicitly verify basic functional testing
across the API.
Testing Schema Migrations
-------------------------
The application of schema migrations can be tested using SQLAlchemy Migrates
built-in test runner, one migration at a time.
.. WARNING::
This may leave your database in an inconsistent state; attempt this in
non-production environments only!
This is useful for testing the *next* migration in sequence (both forward &
backward) in a database under version control:
.. code-block:: bash
$ python keystone/common/sql/migrate_repo/manage.py test \
--url=sqlite:///test.db \
--repository=keystone/common/sql/migrate_repo/
This command references to a SQLite database (test.db) to be used. Depending on
the migration, this command alone does not make assertions as to the integrity
of your data during migration.
LDAP Tests
----------
LDAP has a fake backend that performs rudimentary operations. If you
are building more significant LDAP functionality, you should test against
a live LDAP server. Devstack has an option to set up a directory server for
Keystone to use. Add ldap to the ``ENABLED_SERVICES`` environment variable,
and set environment variables ``KEYSTONE_IDENTITY_BACKEND=ldap`` and
``KEYSTONE_CLEAR_LDAP=yes`` in your ``localrc`` file.
The unit tests can be run against a live server with
``keystone/tests/unit/test_ldap_livetest.py`` and
``keystone/tests/unit/test_ldap_pool_livetest.py``. The default password is
``test`` but if you have installed devstack with a different LDAP password,
modify the file ``keystone/tests/unit/config_files/backend_liveldap.conf`` and
``keystone/tests/unit/config_files/backend_pool_liveldap.conf`` to reflect your
password.
.. NOTE::
To run the live tests you need to set the environment variable
``ENABLE_LDAP_LIVE_TEST`` to a non-negative value.
"Work in progress" Tests
------------------------
Work in progress (WIP) tests are very useful in a variety of situations
including:
* During a TDD process they can be used to add tests to a review while
they are not yet working and will not cause test failures. (They should
be removed before the final merge.)
* Often bug reports include small snippets of code to show broken
behaviors. Some of these can be converted into WIP tests that can later
be worked on by a developer. This allows us to take code that can be
used to catch bug regressions and commit it before any code is
written.
The :func:`keystone.tests.unit.utils.wip` decorator can be used to mark a test
as WIP. A WIP test will always be run. If the test fails then a TestSkipped
exception is raised because we expect the test to fail. We do not pass
the test in this case so that it doesn't count toward the number of
successfully run tests. If the test passes an AssertionError exception is
raised so that the developer knows they made the test pass. This is a
reminder to remove the decorator.
The :func:`~keystone.tests.unit.utils.wip` decorator requires that the author
provides a message. This message is important because it will tell other
developers why this test is marked as a work in progress. Reviewers will
require that these messages are descriptive and accurate.
.. NOTE::
The :func:`~keystone.tests.unit.utils.wip` decorator is not a replacement for
skipping tests.
.. code-block:: python
@wip('waiting on bug #000000')
def test():
pass
.. NOTE::
Another strategy is to not use the wip decorator and instead show how the
code currently incorrectly works. Which strategy is chosen is up to the
developer.
API & Scenario Tests
--------------------
Keystone provides API and scenario tests via a `tempest plugin`_ located at
:func:`~keystone.keystone_tempest_plugin`. This tempest plugin is mainly
intended for specific scenarios that require a special deployment, such as
the tests for the ``Federated Identity`` feature. For the deployment of these
scenarios, keystone also provides a `devstack plugin`_.
For example, to setup a working federated environment, add the following lines
in your `devstack` `local.conf`` file:
.. code-block:: bash
[[local|localrc]]
enable_plugin keystone git://git.openstack.org/openstack/keystone
enable_service keystone-saml2-federation
Finally, to run keystone's API and scenario tests, deploy `tempest`_ with
`devstack`_ (using the configuration above) and then run the following command
from the tempest directory:
.. code-block:: bash
tox -e all-plugin -- keystone_tempest_plugin
.. NOTE::
Most of keystone's API tests are implemented in `tempest`_ and it is usually
the correct place to add new tests.
.. _devstack: https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack-dev/devstack
.. _devstack plugin: https://docs.openstack.org/developer/devstack/plugins.html
.. _tempest: https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/tempest
.. _tempest plugin: https://docs.openstack.org/developer/tempest/plugin.html
Writing new API & Scenario Tests
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When writing tests for the keystone tempest plugin, we should follow the
official tempest guidelines, details about the guidelines can be found at the
`tempest coding guide`_. There are also specific guides for the API and
scenario tests: `Tempest Field Guide to API tests`_ and
`Tempest Field Guide to Scenario tests`_.
The keystone tempest plugin also provides a base class. For most cases, the
tests should inherit from it:
:class:`keystone_tempest_plugin.tests.base.BaseIdentityTest`. This class
already setups the identity API version and is the container of all API
services clients.
New API services clients :mod:`keystone_tempest_plugin.services`
(which are used to communicate with the REST API from
the services) should also be added to this class. For example, below we have a
snippet from the tests at
:py:mod:`keystone_tempest_plugin.tests.api.identity.v3.test_identity_providers.py`.
.. code-block:: python
class IdentityProvidersTest(base.BaseIdentityTest):
...
def _create_idp(self, idp_id, idp_ref):
idp = self.idps_client.create_identity_provider(
idp_id, **idp_ref)['identity_provider']
self.addCleanup(
self.idps_client.delete_identity_provider, idp_id)
return idp
@decorators.idempotent_id('09450910-b816-4150-8513-a2fd4628a0c3')
def test_identity_provider_create(self):
idp_id = data_utils.rand_uuid_hex()
idp_ref = fixtures.idp_ref()
idp = self._create_idp(idp_id, idp_ref)
# The identity provider is disabled by default
idp_ref['enabled'] = False
# The remote_ids attribute should be set to an empty list by default
idp_ref['remote_ids'] = []
self._assert_identity_provider_attributes(idp, idp_id, idp_ref)
The test class extends
:class:`keystone_tempest_plugin.tests.base.BaseIdentityTest`. Also, the
``_create_idp`` method calls keystone's API using the ``idps_client``,
which is an instance from.
:class:`keystone_tempest_plugin.tests.services.identity.v3.identity_providers_client.IdentityProvidersClient`.
Additionally, to illustrate the construction of a new test class, below we have
a snippet from the scenario test that checks the complete federated
authentication workflow (
:py:mod:`keystone_tempest_plugin.tests.scenario.test_federated_authentication.py`).
In the test setup, all of the needed resources are created using the API
service clients. Since it is a scenario test, it is common to need some
customized settings that will come from the environment (in this case, from
the devstack plugin) - these settings are collected in the ``_setup_settings``
method.
.. code-block:: python
class TestSaml2EcpFederatedAuthentication(base.BaseIdentityTest):
...
def _setup_settings(self):
self.idp_id = CONF.fed_scenario.idp_id
self.idp_url = CONF.fed_scenario.idp_ecp_url
self.keystone_v3_endpoint = CONF.identity.uri_v3
self.password = CONF.fed_scenario.idp_password
self.protocol_id = CONF.fed_scenario.protocol_id
self.username = CONF.fed_scenario.idp_username
...
def setUp(self):
super(TestSaml2EcpFederatedAuthentication, self).setUp()
self._setup_settings()
# Reset client's session to avoid getting garbage from another runs
self.saml2_client.reset_session()
# Setup identity provider, mapping and protocol
self._setup_idp()
self._setup_mapping()
self._setup_protocol()
Finally, the tests perform the complete workflow of the feature, asserting its
correctness in each step:
.. code-block:: python
def _request_unscoped_token(self):
resp = self.saml2_client.send_service_provider_request(
self.keystone_v3_endpoint, self.idp_id, self.protocol_id)
self.assertEqual(http_client.OK, resp.status_code)
saml2_authn_request = etree.XML(resp.content)
relay_state = self._str_from_xml(
saml2_authn_request, self.ECP_RELAY_STATE)
sp_consumer_url = self._str_from_xml(
saml2_authn_request, self.ECP_SERVICE_PROVIDER_CONSUMER_URL)
# Perform the authn request to the identity provider
resp = self.saml2_client.send_identity_provider_authn_request(
saml2_authn_request, self.idp_url, self.username, self.password)
self.assertEqual(http_client.OK, resp.status_code)
saml2_idp_authn_response = etree.XML(resp.content)
idp_consumer_url = self._str_from_xml(
saml2_idp_authn_response, self.ECP_IDP_CONSUMER_URL)
# Assert that both saml2_authn_request and saml2_idp_authn_response
# have the same consumer URL.
self.assertEqual(sp_consumer_url, idp_consumer_url)
...
@testtools.skipUnless(CONF.identity_feature_enabled.federation,
"Federated Identity feature not enabled")
def test_request_unscoped_token(self):
self._request_unscoped_token()
Notice that the ``test_request_unscoped_token`` test only executes if the the
``federation`` feature flag is enabled.
.. NOTE::
For each patch submitted upstream, all of the tests from the keystone
tempest plugin are executed in the
``gate-keystone-dsvm-functional-v3-only-*`` job.

Translated responses
====================
The Keystone server can provide error responses translated into the language in
the ``Accept-Language`` header of the request. In order to test this in your
development environment, there's a couple of things you need to do.
1. Build the message files. Run the following command in your keystone
directory:
.. code-block:: bash
$ python setup.py compile_catalog
This will generate .mo files like keystone/locale/[lang]/LC_MESSAGES/[lang].mo
2. When running Keystone, set the ``KEYSTONE_LOCALEDIR`` environment variable
to the keystone/locale directory. For example:
.. code-block:: bash
$ KEYSTONE_LOCALEDIR=/opt/stack/keystone/keystone/locale uwsgi --http 127.0.0.1:35357 --wsgi-file $(which keystone-wsgi-admin)
Now you can get a translated error response:
.. code-block:: bash
$ curl -s -H "Accept-Language: zh" http://localhost:5000/notapath | python -mjson.tool
{
"error": {
"code": 404,
"message": "\u627e\u4e0d\u5230\u8cc7\u6e90\u3002",
"title": "Not Found"
}
}
