Title:
Nicira unit tests should not rely on 'fake API client' data
Status in vmware-nsx:
New
Bug description:
Several Nicira unit tests verify the result of NVP operations leveraging data
stored in the fake nvp api client.
Due to parallel testing, other threads might be operating on the same data
structure, thus adding/removing data which might cause failures in unit tests
asserting on the number of items in the dict.
Mitigation strategies include:
1 - avoid usage of these dicts at all, whenever possible.
2 - consider not using the fake api client at all, and mock nvplib calls
instead
3 - always address peculiar elements in the dict, do not make assertions on
the whole dictionary (such as len).
Long term strategy is to not use anymore the fake nvp api client, at least in
the plugin tests.
nvplib calls might just be mocked, considering that nvplib unit tests are in
place
