Thanks, Dan. The above criteria is reasonable to me. Now Tempest does not check API responses in many cases. For example, Tempest does not check what API attributes("flavor", "image", etc.) should be included in the response body of "create a server" API. So we need to improve Tempest coverage from this viewpoint for verifying any backward incompatibility does not happen on v2.1 API. We started this improvement for Tempest and have proposed some patches for it now.
