[Bug 1918340] [NEW] Fault Injection #1 - improve unit test effectiveness

 

Public bug reported:

Description
===========
I have performed fault injection in openstack nova by changing the code of compute/api.py (inserting a representative/probable bug) and then ran the unit, functional and integration tests and discover that some of the bugs inserted were not detected by the test suite:
The reference WIDS (Wrong string in initial data) is a type of fault where the string used in a variable initialization is set to an incorrect value.
 

Steps to reproduce
==================

Line of Code	Original Code					Incorrect Code
102		AGGREGATE_ACTION_UPDATE_META = 'UpdateMeta'	AGGREGATE_ACTION_UPDATE_META = 'NHZWTCGB'

Refactor the line of code above to the incorrect code. Then execute the
unit tests.

Expected result
===============
The unit tests should detect the fault.

Actual result
===============
The fault was not detected by the unit tests.

Environment
===========
The code tested is on the stable/ussuri branch.

** Affects: nova
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
