Thanks for your explicit explanations,I even misunderstand(maybe superficial understand) the intentions of the random IP when I set up this thread :) Ihar Hrachyshka 于2016年10月19日周三 上午12:05写道: > (To clarify for those not part of the neutron dev team, ‘fullstack’ in > neutron

I think doug (he can correct me if I am wrong) was more wondering the question of 'why would you want to use random data' in a test vs using known fixed data. When a test fails it can be quite hard to identify the reason if certain data that the test uses is randomized for each run.

Ha,thanks for your link, it's absolutely much clearer and more correct here, and how do you think of this util function itself? Kiall Mac Innes 于2016年10月18日周二 上午12:03写道: > We tend to try stick with the various TEST-NET CIDRs etc as well in > Designate, and document them here:

Hmm,it's used to generate the ip address for validation or rule checking, Meanwhile add some randomness. Of course it's unreasonable the case you mentioned, please check the existed cases [1] and [2] [1] https://github.com/openstack/manila/blob/master/manila_tempest_tests/tests/api/base.py#L828
