Hi Umesh, Looks like you have started on right track - Marvin is the framework to use for functional or integration automation. There are sizable number of test cases exist and you can review them. There are some wiki pages already written explaining Marvin [1]. Also best practices are published by community as well [2]. You can contribute to it as much as you can.
Besides this, there is Junit framework (unit Test), Selenium framework (UI automation) which are not as popular as Marvin. Marvin is perfect for majority of the validation. You can use simulator as well with Marvin. Please do pursue these and post questions to the community if you run in to any issues in setting up env and running tests. There are jobs setup by various community members to test Master or current releases in various labs and can help answer questions.

I am working as QA engineer and I am new to the cloudstack community. We have started using cloudstack and deployed it in our infrastructure. Can somebody please help me in identifying the good automation framework/tool/anything? The main intention is we want to automate the infrastructure validation related cases (for e.g. create/update/delete cases for instances, project, network, etc...) It would be good if you can help in identifying it. Please note: I have gone through cloudmonkey. But i haven't found much help on it. May be i need to search a bit more.. I am also going through the marvin and planning to setup it. If apart from these two, if anyone has different view please suggest. Also, if somebody has any pointers on cloudmonkey and marvin or any more info on this (like, if it would suffice the infrastructure validation related cases i mentioned above) any pros/cons would really be helpful for me... Appreciate any help on this and looking forward for the response on this!!! Thanks and Regards -- Umesh Kute
