There was a problem hiding this comment.
We discussed that the tests would be written in plain language (English)?

| Initially created by the following prompt: | ||
| Write a python implementation that can read content from feature.yml, create variables whose names are defined in the "arrange" mapping's keys, and the variables' value are derived from the "arrange" mapping's value; interpret those value as if they are python snippet using MSAL library. |

This PR contains a runner that can load specs-based test cases from a central service. The schema of those test cases will be defined elsewhere.
The test runner is then integrated as ONE test case, into the existing test automation. Its effect will be one of the following three outcomes.
tests/test_smile.py . [ xx%]That small dot after the file name means the multiple specs-based test cases as a whole passed.
We don't normally need to find that log because, if all other traditional existing test cases also pass, the build will simply end with a green status, as it normally would be.
tests/test_smile.py F [ xx%]That capital F after the file name means some of the multiple specs failed and, as a result, the entire test automation run will be marked as failed.
tests/test_smile.py s [ xx%]That lowercase s after the file name means the specs-based test cases were skipped.
This way, the occasional central test service maintenance will not block existing test automation.
The test runner currently supports test cases for managed identity v1. Going forward, this repo will receive more changes to the test runner to support more scenarios such as CCA. Actual specs-based test cases will continue to be hosted elsewhere centrally.
