-------------------------------------

             Summary: Need test driver to drive the testing of plugins 
                 Key: CLOUDSTACK-789
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-789
             Project: CloudStack
          Issue Type: Improvement
      Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
            Reporter: Alex Huang
             Fix For: 4.1.0


CloudStack needs test drivers that do the following:

Loads a plugin without CloudStack.  Loads the tests that test the interface the plugin supports.  And run a set of tests to qualify the plugin satisfies how Cloudstack will use the interface.  

For example, for the networkelement interface, the test driver should be able load any network element and establish the that the interface is set by the network element.  

This way, any plugin writer have some initial guarantee that their code works the way as expected by CloudStack and they can go into final integration test without causing much problems.
