Keystone Scopes & Roles Support in Tempest

OpenStack Keystone supports different scopes in token, refer to the Keystone doc. Along with the scopes, keystone supports default roles, one of which is a reader role, for details refer to this keystone document.

Tempest supports those scopes and roles credentials that can be used to test APIs under different scope and roles.

Dynamic Credentials

Dynamic credential supports all the below set of personas and allows you to generate credentials tailored to a specific persona that you can use in your test.

Domain scoped personas:

  1. Domain Admin: This is supported and can be requested and used from the test as below:

    class TestDummy(base.DummyBaseTest):
    
        credentials = ['domain_admin']
    
        @classmethod
        def setup_clients(cls):
            super(TestDummy, cls).setup_clients()
            cls.az_d_admin_client = (
                cls.os_domain_admin.availability_zone_client)
    
  2. Domain Member: This is supported and can be requested and used from the test as below:

    class TestDummy(base.DummyBaseTest):
    
        credentials = ['domain_member']
    
        @classmethod
        def setup_clients(cls):
            super(TestDummy, cls).setup_clients()
            cls.az_d_member_client = (
                cls.os_domain_member.availability_zone_client)
    
  3. Domain Reader: This is supported and can be requested and used from the test as below:

    class TestDummy(base.DummyBaseTest):
    
        credentials = ['domain_reader']
    
        @classmethod
        def setup_clients(cls):
            super(TestDummy, cls).setup_clients()
            cls.az_d_reader_client = (
                cls.os_domain_reader.availability_zone_client)
    
  4. Domain other roles: This is supported and can be requested and used from the test as below:

    You need to use the domain as the prefix in credentials type, and based on that, Tempest will create test users under ‘domain’ scope.

    class TestDummy(base.DummyBaseTest):
    
        credentials = [['domain_my_role1', 'my_own_role1', 'admin']
                       ['domain_my_role2', 'my_own_role2']]
    
        @classmethod
        def setup_clients(cls):
            super(TestDummy, cls).setup_clients()
            cls.az_d_role1_client = (
                cls.os_domain_my_role1.availability_zone_client)
            cls.az_d_role2_client = (
                cls.os_domain_my_role2.availability_zone_client)
    

System scoped personas:

    class TestDummy(base.DummyBaseTest):
    
        credentials = ['system_admin']
    
        @classmethod
        def setup_clients(cls):
            super(TestDummy, cls).setup_clients()
            cls.az_s_admin_client = (
                cls.os_system_admin.availability_zone_client)
    
  2. System Member: This is supported and can be requested and used from the test as below:

    class TestDummy(base.DummyBaseTest):
    
        credentials = ['system_member']
    
        @classmethod
        def setup_clients(cls):

            cls.az_s_member_client = (
                cls.os_system_member.availability_zone_client)
    
  3. System Reader: This is supported and can be requested and used from the test as below:

  4. System other roles: This is supported and can be requested and used from the test as below:

    You need to use the system as the prefix in credentials type, and based on that, Tempest will create test users under ‘project’ scope.

        credentials = [['system_my_role1', 'my_own_role1', 'admin']
                       ['system_my_role2', 'my_own_role2']]
    
        @classmethod

    Note

    ‘alt’, ‘project_alt_admin’, ‘project_alt_member’, and ‘project_alt_reader’ credentials will be created under same project.

  7. Project other roles: This is supported and can be requested and used from the test as below:

    You need to use the project as the prefix in credentials type, and based on that, Tempest will create test users under ‘project’ scope.

    class TestDummy(base.DummyBaseTest):
    
        credentials = [['project_my_role1', 'my_own_role1', 'admin']
                       ['project_my_role2', 'my_own_role2']]

                cls.os_project_my_role1.availability_zone_client)
            cls.az_role2_client = (
                cls.os_project_my_role2.availability_zone_client)
    

Note

‘admin’ credenatials is considered and kept as legacy admin and will be created under new project. If any test want to test with admin role in projectA and non-admin/admin in projectB then test can request projectA admin using ‘admin’ or ‘project_alt_admin’ and non-admin in projectB using ‘primary’, ‘project_member’, or ‘project_reader’/admin in projectB using ‘project_admin’. Many existing tests using the ‘admin’ with new project to assert on the resource list so we are keeping ‘admin’ a kind of legacy admin.
