I think the hard question to me here is:

Do people care about testing code on system installs vs. virtual env?
run_tests does that and for some cases when you want to be extra sure
about your CICD nodes, packaging and upgrades, the problem is solved.

Are packagers using tox to this purpose?

TBH, if you're testing things without venvs and sytemwide, I think it'd be far
easier to just call nosetests/testr directly in your system than calling the
run_tests script.

Some packages don't even ship tests.

The keystone team did the same during Liberty while we were moving
towards using oslo.* projects instead of oslo-incubator [0]. We also
noticed that they were rarely used, and we did not go through a
deprecation process since these are developer tools. We're still
finding a few spots in our docs that need updating, but overall it was
an easy transition.

Subject: [Openstack-operators] [glance] Remove `run_tests.sh` and
`tools/*`

------------------------------------------------------------------------



Hey Folks,

I'm looking at doing some cleanups in our repo and I would like to
start by
deprecating the `run_tests` script and the contents in the `tools/` dir.

As far as I can tell, no one is using this code - we're not even using
it in the
gate - as it was broken until recently, I believe. The recommended way
to run
tests is using `tox` and I believe having this script in the code base
misleads
new contributors and other users.

So, before we do this. I wanted to get feedback from a broader
audience and give
a heads up to folks that might be using this code.

Any objections? Something I'm missing?

Flavio
