Flocker tests are failing

[Nayana-ibm]

Hi,

Flocker tests are failing on RHEL7 and Ubuntu 16.04 on Intel x86.
Flocker version 1.15.0

I have executed flocker test suite using "tox" command however getting below failures:

Failure: testtools.testresult.real._StringException: Empty attachments

Ran 2770 tests in 1030.296s
FAILED (skips=280, failures=5, successes=2485)
ERROR:   py27: commands failed

Tests failing with above error are:

flocker.control.test.test_persistence.GenerationHashTests.test_consistent_hash
flocker.control.test.test_persistence.LatestGoldenFilesValid.test_can_create_latest_golden
flocker.restapi.testtools.ConfigurationContainersSchemaTests.test_fails_validation_maxItems_0
flocker.restapi.testtools.ConfigurationDatasetsCreateSchemaTests.test_fails_validation_pattern_1
flocker.restapi.testtools.ConfigurationDatasetsSchemaTests.test_fails_validation_pattern_1

Traceback for test
flocker.control.test.test_persistence.GenerationHashTests.test_consistent_hash:

I have followed below steps to build flocker:

git clone https://github.com/ClusterHQ/flocker
cd flocker
git checkout 1.15.0
pip install -e .
tox

Also, same result with below steps:

yum install python-devel openssl-devel git libffi-devel python-pip
yum groupinstall "Development tools"
pip install virtualenvwrapper
source /usr/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh
mkvirtualenv flocker
git clone https://github.com/ClusterHQ/flocker
cd flocker/
pip install --requirement dev-requirements.txt
trial flocker

Tried with git clone https://github.com/ScatterHQ/flocker as well.

Any idea on these failures? are these failures expected?

Note: I had raised this issue here also.
