A side effect of fully symmetric testing of the olsotest module is
that it will end up joining the world into a single gating queue
due to transitive dependencies. It already put ironic in line with
the rest of the gate because the following cross testing:
ironic <-> dib <-> oslotest <-> oslo.messaging <-> all of openstack
As stackforge projects included oslotest, we might have gotten
similar things.
Here is the proposed solution to get us out of this:
* remove oslotest tests from the gate queue of projects that use it
* continue to run oslotest tests on check queues for those projects
(this is basically 'gate lite', as clean check still makes them
have to pass these tests)
* leave oslotest gate tests on oslotest. This handles the case where
a series of olsotest patches merge conflict badly, but can't get
caught until the gate.
This means there is an exposure where "just the right" set of patch
lands in a project which break oslotest usage could cause a temporary
wedge of that project + oslotest. However I think that's a localized
enough problem we should take that risk and manage it instead of
the current monolythic pipeline problem.
