Concise, extensible and human-friendly configuration for testing and gating

The current way of enabling tests in the Fedora CI is awkward. There is repeated feedback that the configuration is hard to understand and write. Also its extensibility is quite limited. We want to change that so:
  • Simple & common use cases are super simple to write
  • The format is flexible enough to cover future extensions
  • Concise and easily readable for both machines & humans
  • Everything needed for testing & gating at one place
  • Easier reuse of test cases across different distros
  • Clear test steps separation allows easier local execution
  • Support for inheritance to minimize duplication & maintenance
We've defined Level 1 and Level 2 metadata specification and would like to present a proof of concept on the systemd component showing how simple it could be to enable set of shared tests for continuously testing changes in GitHub, Fedora CI, CentOS CI...
