Cinder Style Commandments
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
- Step 1: Read the OpenStack Style Commandments
|
|

|
|
- Step 2: Read on

|
Cinder Specific Commandments
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
General
|
|
-------
|
|
- Use 'raise' instead of 'raise e' to preserve original traceback or exception being reraised::
|
|
|
|
except Exception as e:
|
|
...
|
|
raise e # BAD
|
|
|
|
except Exception:
|
|
...
|
|
raise # OKAY
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Creating Unit Tests
|
|
-------------------
|
|
For every new feature, unit tests should be created that both test and
|
|
(implicitly) document the usage of said feature. If submitting a patch for a
|
|
bug that had no unit test, a new passing unit test should be added. If a
|
|
submitted bug fix does have a unit test, be sure to add a new one that fails
|
|
without the patch and passes with the patch.
|
|
|
|
Cinder is transitioning to use mock, rather than mox, and so new tests should
|
|
use mock only.
|
|
|
|
For more information on creating unit tests and utilizing the testing
|
|
infrastructure in OpenStack Cinder, please read the Cinder testing
|

`README.rst <https://github.com/openstack/cinder/blob/master/cinder/testing/README.rst>`_.
