#### RefStack provides tools for the interoperability testing of OpenStack clouds

RefStack provides users in the OpenStack community with a Tempest wrapper,
refstack-client (included in this snap), that helps to verify interoperability
of their cloud with other OpenStack clouds.
It does so by validating any cloud implementation against the OpenStack Tempest API tests.
