How to Contribute

python-tempestconf source code is publicly available. You can contribute code to individual projects, documentation, report bugs and vulnerabilities and request features.

Reporting Bugs

We have a storyboard project created to track any change required for python-tempestconf. If you have found any bug, please, report it there.

Important information to mention:

  • System on which the problem occurred (e.g. CentOS, Ubuntu, …)

  • The source of python-tempestconf you have used. The package version number in case of RPM or the branch used in case of installation from git.

  • The exact command with all arguments you have used.

  • It’s always better to include the console output as well.

Requesting Features

Create a story with a task for our project containing all the relevant information, mainly:

  • description of the feature

  • inputs (new CLI option, …) and outputs (desired configuration in tempest.conf) of the feature

  • the reason why it should be implemented
