There is actually, but only for python2.6 unittests run on CentOS 6.5. All of the tempest tests run on Ubuntu Precise with most jobs using MySQL and a few using PostgreSQL. None of the tests use MariaDB today. There were folks working on getting Fedora nodes into nodepool to do testing of some sort on Fedora (which would be MariaDB aiui), but ran into trouble around nodepool's privilege expectations (something about sudo needing a proper tty and paramiko not being able to nicely provide one). We should pick that work back up again, but Infra has been swamped recently. If we do end up adding MariaDB integration (tempest) tests I would not add another set of tests. Instead we should probably swap out MySQL and use MariaDB in one of the existing tests.
