Summary: [Marvin]: Base.py and Service class changes
Key: CLOUDSTACK-6384
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-6384
Project: CloudStack
Issue Type: Improvement
Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
Components: marvin
Reporter: Santhosh Kumar Edukulla
1. Currently, the way base.py has been used especially with related to passing
and using services dictiionary is far confusing.
2. Any change we do to services dictionary and its structure effects base.py
functionality, ideally it should abstract the base.py interfaces from internal
data structures usage.
3. We are not sure as which elements in services dictionary are mandatory and
which are not. This we can make sure to mention and use base.py classes to have
these parameters defined.
4. We can make the classes accept default keyword values defined from
test_data, or services so that people can start using them in tests with out
worrying much with creating, listing, using etc. EX: We will just say
Network_obj.create(), rather passing complete argument list at times, if we can
define keyword and mandatory arguments defined with initial default values to
these apis, then that should be good.
5. This makes test writing cleaner and simpler. Lot places, we play around and
shuffle with services dictionary which is little redundant.
