Layout and conventions
----------------------
Test files and directories follow a few conventions, which makes it easy to
create (or expect) certain interactions between tests and scenarios.

All tests are in the ``tests`` directory. Scenarios are defined in
``tests/functional/`` and use the following convention for directory
structure::

    tests/functional/<distro>/<distro version>/<scenario name>/

For example: ``tests/functional/centos/7/journal-collocation``

Within a test scenario there are a few files that define what that specific
scenario needs for the tests, like how many OSD nodes or MON nodes. Tls

At the very least, a scenario will need these files:

* ``Vagrantfile``: must be symlinked from the root directory of the project
* ``hosts``: An Ansible hosts file that defines the machines part of the
  cluster
* ``group_vars/all``: if any modifications are needed for deployment, this
  would override them. Additionally, further customizations can be done. For
  example, for OSDs that would mean adding ``group_vars/osds``
* ``vagrant_variables.yml``: Defines the actual environment for the test, where
  machines, networks, disks, linux distro/version, can be defined.
