[Bug 1321481] Re: run integration tests from autopkgtest

[Barry Warsaw]

I'm marking this as won't fix due to the new policy prohibiting internet
access from DEP-8 based pocket promotion tests.  It is my opinion that
DEP-8 format should be preserved for defining integration tests with
external services (which include system-image.u.c) but which are not
tied directly to pocket promotion.  E.g. a separate CI based integration
test system would use these to ensure integration tests are automated,
but they would not be run at pocket promotion time.

When such a system is available, I'll reopen this bug, or open a new one
to track such tests.

Title:
  run integration tests from autopkgtest

Status in system-image package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  system-image is a critical piece of infrastructure that needs to be
  kept in working order; changes should not be allowed to land in the
  archive that break it, since that risks leaving users high and dry on
  a phone image that's not upgradable.  The best way to guard against
  this is by having system-image run a full battery of integration tests
  (including real system-image updates using ubuntu-emulator) from
  autopkgtest.

  This will prevent any direct dependencies of system-image from
  regressing system-image's functionality.
