AKA "One Hundred and One Dalmatians", is now available!

Release documentation: Avocado 101.0 <http://avocado-framework.readthedocs.io/en/101.0/>_

Users/Test Writers

  • The xunit (AKA junit) result file now contains the class
    name and better error information for test cases.

  • The xunit and json result files now contain the test variant
    information.

  • The documentation now uses proper terminology everywhere, matching
    the nrunner architecture.

Utility Modules

  • :mod:avocado.utils.cpu introduced a utility to check if a given CPU
    is hotpluggable.

    :func:avocado.utils.network.hosts.Host.validate_mac_addr which

Bug Fixes

  • Test runners written in Python (using Python modules as an
    entrypoint) will now be found by the podman spawner.

  • A runnable's variant (and thus parameters) information was not being
    respected when using the Job API.

Internal Changes

  • A number of lint checks were added, with the bump of Pylint to
    version 2.15.10.

  • Besides the main Avocado egg, all of the optional plugins (but part
    of the Avocado code repository), now build eggs on the CI.
