KVM-Autotest TODO list

Multi host migration - 1 week to recap the patch that was sent by QA, improve on it, have an updated patch by then - lmr

Framework

Libvirt integration - 1 week coordinating what it needs to be done, another 4 weeks (at least) implementing it - QA, lmr, mgoldish, help from libvirt developers

Include support for host kernel install on the KVM default control file - Using autotest standard API to get it done - lmr - PARTIALLY DONE, needs to resolve bugs in boottool to full functionality

Add a BLOCKED status on the autotest database, that tells the user that some feature testing was left out due to a problem on its dependencies.

Enable "guest-load" for a VMs before/while tests are running (e.g. migration of a VM, while a movie is playing on it) [Michael]
Add a way to shutdown the VMs when the whole job completes (compared to doing nothing or shutting-down after every test) [Michael]

Eventually get rid of all dependency on slirp/userspace networking to do any feature testing, since it is not a supported feature. Slipstreaming the kickstart in the install CD is a possibility, and it ends up being simpler than configuring an internal network thing for testing.

Make it possible to install virtio nw driver under windows xp/2003 guests without having to resort to the msi installer - assignee? Considerations: We would like to avoid slipstreaming the drivers in the iso cdrom, since we feel it is too messy. If after honest try we can't find another way, let's give slipstreaming a try.

Using dnsmasq in unattended_install to replace userspace network with private bridge [Amos] status: have implemented in internal tree
Bonding test [Amos]

Add docstrings to all functions that still lack them, including the ones in stepmaker.py, stepeditor.py and kvm_tests.py [Michael]
Document the setupssh.iso and setuptelnet.iso creation procedures in the wiki
Rename all Windows ISOs currently used to their official MSDN names
Fill the sections "Working with step files" and "Step file creation tips" in the wiki [Michael]
