ceph/teuthology

Teuthology is an integration test framework for Ceph, the distributed storage system.

Teuthology addresses the challenge of testing Ceph's complex distributed behavior across multiple nodes and configurations. The framework orchestrates test execution by managing cluster provisioning, deploying Ceph components, running test suites, and collecting results. It enables developers to define and execute integration tests that verify Ceph's functionality in realistic multi-node environments rather than relying solely on unit tests.

Teams working on Ceph itself or building systems that depend on Ceph's stability should consider Teuthology. It suits projects that need to validate Ceph behavior across different hardware configurations, storage backends, and failure scenarios. The framework is designed for contributors to the Ceph project and operators who need to verify custom Ceph deployments through automated testing.

The project maintains steady development activity with regular commits addressing test infrastructure improvements and bug fixes. Pull requests receive review and integration into the main codebase. The codebase shows ongoing maintenance of test definitions and framework components to keep pace with Ceph's evolution.
