tests: Create a regression-tests package for distribution
As of today regression tests are an in-house breed, by making
it a new package and distributing it ensures larger set of
people use it and contribute to it. This can also be used
by any consumer/user to build their own environment for glusterfs
regression testing which is today limited only to 'upstream'
'glusterfs' releases and build.gluster.org

Make + sure the installed version is accessible from $PATH. + +## How-To +- To mount glusterfs, NEVER use 'mount -t glusterfs', instead use + 'glusterfs -s ' method. This is because with the patch build setup + doesnot install the /sbin/mount.glusterfs necessary, where as the + glusterfs binary will be accessible with $PATH, and will pick the + right version. +- (optional) Set environment variables to specify location of + export directories and mount points. Unless you have special + requirements, the defaults should just work. The variables + themselves can be found at the top of tests/include.rc. All + of them can be overriden with environment variables. + +## Usage +- Execute `/usr/share/glusterfs/run-tests.sh` as root. + +- If some test cases fail, report to GlusterFS community at + `gluster-devel@nongnu.org`. + +## Reminder +- BE WARNED THAT THE TEST CASES DELETE /var/lib/glusterd/* !!!
