Neutron Jobs Running in Zuul CI

Different kinds of CI jobs are running against patches proposed for Neutron in Gerrit. They have different purposes and complexity. Some jobs are more lightweight (for example, unit tests or linters), while others are more heavyweight (for example, tempest or grenade jobs).

Mainline Tempest and Grenade jobs

Neutron CI runs a number of tempest and grenade (upgrade) jobs in CI. These jobs are required to pass to merge a patch.

Periodic and experimental jobs

Due to a significant number of jobs, not all of them are run on every patch. Some of them are instead executed periodically or on-demand. The periodic jobs are run on a schedule, while the experimental jobs are run on-demand by making a check experimental comment in Gerrit under a patch.

Where to find job definitions

You may inspect the list of jobs defined for the project by either looking under zuul.d/ in the Neutron repository or by visiting the Zuul web interface at https://zuul.opendev.org/

Some jobs are not defined in this repository, but in the neutron-tempest-plugin repository.

Finally, some jobs are defined through templates. Please consult zuul.d/project.yaml for the list of templates used in the Neutron project.

Alternatively, you may also inspect the list of jobs in a recent patch in Gerrit comments. (Note that the list executed for a particular patch may be affected by irrelevant-files filters. You may consult these in the zuul.d/ configuration files.)
