Hi all,
For Gluster 3.5, I'd like to propose we get some kind of
*multi-node* testing framework in place for Gluster.

The existing test framework is single node only, which
doesn't fit well for a distributed file system.
agree.
I've recently looked into Autotest in depth, but ruled
it out since it's:
* Linux only (ugh)
* Very hard to figure out for newbies
* Close to zero documentation
* Opaque/unreadable source
* Painful to work with :(
Potentially we could use STAF (staf.sourceforge.net).
I've not investigated this in depth yet, but from it's
website it's:
* Cross Platform
http://staf.sourceforge.net/current/STAFFAQ.htm#d0e36
* Seems like extensive documentation, and usable with
several languages:
http://staf.sourceforge.net/current/STAFPython.htm
* Seems like a _reasonably_ active Community
http://sourceforge.net/p/staf/mailman/staf-users/
Though I have worked with STAF for a brief period of time, I like it.
I'll put this info into a Feature Page if people think
it's worth writing up and taking further.
?
We should do a POC on this and see how it it is working for us and if
you need any help for this let me know.
Regards and best wishes,
Justin Clift
