Public bug reported:
I noticed this while running unit tests on stable/mitaka, but I think it
applies to other branches including master.
When you run tox -r -e py27 you'll have a nova/instances directory
created, I think from the state_path variable used in the libvirt
driver. nova/keys is also created and left around, but wasn't an issue
for me.
On stable/mitaka, because of the files existing on disk in
nova/instances, the test_rescue() test in the libvirt driver would find
a file that exists (which normally wouldn't) and tries to chown it,
which hangs the test process on sudo prompting for a password.
Ideally the tests would cleanup any resources they create, but as a
quick fix we could simply just rm -rf nova/instances from tox.ini when
we run tests, just like we do with removing *.pyc files.
