A plugin for [[OpenStack Tempest]] that tests a non-core service such as gobs.

**Recommendation:** keep tempest plugin for a service in a seperate repository.

Requires an entrypoint in your app that it can find.
Consists of "service clients", clients that consume specific parts of the service. ie. a backup service client, or snapshot service client.

1 test suite per service / resource of the API.

Base class for "API Tests" can handle resource management using an idempotent id it can make sure resources are properly destroyed upon teardown.
