But, the end state we desire is (a) good AWSAPI implementation with automated tests, not (b) 2 AWSAPI implementations with no tests! time for bed here, but to keep the conversation going, couple things: Hugo is fixing coverity issues kind of automatically, I don't think it represents a need. One fix from Likitha and one applied patch from me in a year is really slim. We don't test the current awsapi during the release process or upgrade, so I actually have no clue if it's working with 4.3 and 4.4. Right now I don't see tests for the current awsapi, at least not on jenkins.buildacloud.org. Current awsapi also includes S3 stuff which I think we can all agree is confusing and unused since it's really an interface to an NFS store and not a distributed object store. So the choice for me is between: -current awsapi, not clearly maintained, without tests and which state in the release is unknown and -a new implementation 6 months old, smaller code base, up to date with AWS version number, tested manually with boto, eutester and awscli and with 99% unit test coverage. — Chiradeep From: Sebastien Goasguen run...@gmail.commailto:run...@gmail.com Reply-To: dev@cloudstack.apache.orgmailto:dev@cloudstack.apache.org dev@cloudstack.apache.orgmailto:dev@cloudstack.apache.org Date: Monday, November 24, 2014 at 1:36 PM To: dev@cloudstack.apache.orgmailto:dev@cloudstack.apache.org dev@cloudstack.apache.orgmailto:dev@cloudstack.apache.org Subject: Re: Moving ec2stack and gstack to the cloudstack repos.

Re: Moving ec2stack and gstack to the cloudstack repos.
Chiradeep, Of course, check out the git repository at https://github.com/brogand1993/ec2stack the code is pretty clean and there is 99% test coverage. TravisCI is setup to run on every commit and execute the tests along with pylint for static analysis. There's a screencast here of a rough overview https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvu-gc8h4Qglist=UUoGs2iiOIGrfXofp-3g-Qqg It looks at installation, configuration and basic usage against exoscale using awscli.
