test_obj_make_compatible() does not call __init__ properly on ServiceStatusPayload objects

[Ryan Rossiter]

Because I can tell the future, the test_obj_make_compatible() method will start failing the next time we bump the version of ServiceStatusPayload.

It looks like in https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/tests/unit/objects/test_objects.py#L1252-L1268 we run compatibility checks on all previous versions to see if we're compatible with them. It does not test current->current conversion though, so in the case of ServiceStatusPayload, which is currently at 1.0, that for loop is never run.

I caught this in my change (https://review.openstack.org/#/c/259112/2/nova/tests/unit/objects/test_objects.py) because ovo's compatibility checker includes checking from 1.0 to 1.0 (https://github.com/openstack/oslo.versionedobjects/blob/master/oslo_versionedobjects/fixture.py#L302-L310), and I'm trying to change nova's tests to use the o.vo fixture. In my tests, ServiceStatusPayload is causing:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "nova/tests/unit/objects/test_objects.py", line 1259, in test_obj_make_compatible
    checker.test_compatibility_routines(use_manifest=True)

    obj_class().obj_to_primitive(**kwargs)
TypeError: __init__() takes exactly 2 arguments (1 given)

So we need to somehow inject args to __init__() when we need to...

    Use ovo in test_obj_make_compatible()

    o.vo has a fixture for testing compatibility routines. This changes the
    nova unit tests to use that compatibility testing on all objects. In the
    original nova test, the versions tested were from 1.0 to 1.(x-1), where
    1.x is the current version. o.vo's fixture tests from 1.0 to 1.x, which
    should be a no-op, but is also a good thing to test (if we can't convert
    1.x to 1.x, that's a bad thing).

    o.vo also had an enhancement where it passed args and kwargs to __init__
    in the different objects, which was a bug in nova, but using that
    fixture allows us to also close the nova bug. This change in o.vo was
    I62646b99adca47a9c9fe0f466f7a23ac8fa4553e.
