So the reason we didn't remove this from tempest when we stopped using it as part of grenade is at the time there were external users. They still wanted to keep the tooling around. This is why the unit tests were grown in an effort to maintain some semblance of testing after the grenade removal.

You should not just delete these files, there were real users of it in the past and there might still be. If you're saying that javelin isn't something we can realistically maintain anymore (which I'm not sure I buy, but whatever) we should first mark it for deprecation and have a warning print saying it will be removed in the future. This gives people a chance to stop using it and migrate to something else. (using ansible would be a good alternative) -Matt Treinish > > --- > [1] > https://review.openstack.org/#/q/status:open+project:openstack/tempest+branch:master+topic:bp/consistent-service-method-names,n,z >
