[drosenfe]

Add generation of xml results file to validations role. This will allow polarion status reporting for validations.

Hi @drosenfe. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a openstack-k8s-operators member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work. Regular contributors should join the org to skip this step.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.

Instructions for interacting with me using PR comments are available here. If you have questions or suggestions related to my behavior, please file an issue against the kubernetes-sigs/prow repository.

If this is working to get the data you need into Polarion then it lgtm. Just some follow up tidying that we can do, but realistically it's orthogonal to this change anyway. I don't want to distract from the objective of the PR with that conversation here, this change just draws attention to that requirement for me.

JFYI we have roles/polarion for uploading the polarion xml once ready.

I think ultimately, what might be nice as a follow up to this PR is a new task file in the polarion role that will take some Ansible variable inputs, and use a jinja2 template to format those results into the required XML for polarion. Then instead of all the XML handling we're doing in this PR, we can simply call import tasks_from that new polarion file and it can handle to XML side of things.

But since this is only going to impact the EDPM validations, it's fairly limited impact if something were to stop working for some reason. I'm in favor of merging it to keep progress going, and maybe we can backlog a Epic to tidy up the XML side of things.
