README: Linux Integration Services Automation (LISA) ============================================

|CI Workflow| |GitHub license| |Docs|

Linux Integration Services Automation (LISA) is a Linux quality validation system, which consists of two parts：

• A test framework to drive test execution.
• A set of test suites to verify Linux kernel/distribution quality.

LISA` was originally designed and implemented for Microsoft Azure and Windows HyperV platforms; now it can be used to validate Linux quality on any platforms if the proper orchestrator module is implemented.

Why LISA --------

• Scalable: Benefit from the appropriate abstractions, `LISA

can be used to test the quality of numerous Linux distributions without duplication of code implementation.

• Customizable: The test suites created on top of `LISA` can be

customized to support different quality validation needs.

• Support multiple platforms: `LISA` is created with modular

design, to support various of Linux platforms including Microsoft Azure, Windows HyperV, Linux bare metal, and other cloud based platforms.

• End-to-end: `LISA` supports platform specific orchestrators to

create and delete test environment automatically; it also provides flexibility to preserve environments for troubleshooting if test(s) fails.
