From: Cleber Rosa <crosa@redhat.com>

This patch adds the very minimum infrastructure necessary for writing
and running functional/acceptance tests, including:

 * Documentation
 * The avocado_qemu.Test base test class
 * One example tests (version.py)

Additional functionality is expected to be added along the tests that
require them.

+Acceptance tests using the Avocado Framework
+============================================
+
+The ``tests/acceptance`` directory hosts functional tests, also known
+as acceptance level tests.  They're usually higher level tests, and
+may interact with external resources and with various guest operating
+systems.
+
+These tests are written using the Avocado Testing Framework (which must
+be installed separately) in conjunction with a the ``avocado_qemu.Test``
+class, implemented at ``tests/acceptance/avocado_qemu``.
+
+Tests based on ``avocado_qemu.Test`` can easily:
+
+ * Customize the command line arguments given to the convenience
+   ``self.vm`` attribute (a QEMUMachine instance)
+
+ * Interact with the QEMU monitor, send QMP commands and check
+   their results
+
+ * Interact with the guest OS, using the convenience console device
+   (which may be useful to assert the effectiveness and correctness of
+   command line arguments or QMP commands)
+
+ * Interact with external data files that accompany the test itself
+   (see ``self.get_data()``)
+
+ * Download (and cache) remote data files, such as firmware and kernel
+   images
+
+ * Have access to a library of guest OS images (by means of the
+   ``avocado.utils.vmimage`` library)
+
+ * Make use of various other test related utilities available at the
+   test class itself and at the utility library:
+
+   - http://avocado-framework.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/test/avocado.html#avocado.Test
+   - http://avocado-framework.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/utils/avocado.utils.html
+
+Installation
+------------
+
+To install Avocado and its dependencies, run:
+
+.. code::
+
+  pip install --user avocado-framework
+
+Alternatively, follow the instructions on this link:
+
+  http://avocado-framework.readthedocs.io/en/latest/GetStartedGuide.html#installing-avocado
+
+Overview
+--------
+
+This directory provides the ``avocado_qemu`` Python module, containing
+the ``avocado_qemu.Test`` class.  Here's a simple usage example:
+
+.. code::
+
+  from avocado_qemu import Test
+
+
+  class Version(Test):
+      """
+      :avocado: enable
+      :avocado: tags=quick
+      """
+      def test_qmp_human_info_version(self):
+          self.vm.launch()
+          res = self.vm.command('human-monitor-command',
+                                command_line='info version')
+          self.assertRegexpMatches(res, r'^(\d+\.\d+\.\d)')
+
+To execute your test, run:
+
+.. code::
+
+  avocado run version.py
+
+Tests may be classified according to a convention by using docstring
+directives such as ``:avocado: tags=TAG1,TAG2``.  To run all tests
+in the current directory, tagged as "quick", run:
+
+.. code::
+
+  avocado run -t quick .
+
+The ``avocado_qemu.Test`` base test class
+-----------------------------------------
+
+The ``avocado_qemu.Test`` class has a number of characteristics that
+are worth being mentioned right away.
+
+First of all, it attempts to give each test a ready to use QEMUMachine
+instance, available at ``self.vm``.  Because many tests will tweak the
+QEMU command line, launching the QEMUMachine (by using ``self.vm.launch()``)
+is left to the test writer.
+
+At test "tear down", ``avocado_qemu.Test`` handles the QEMUMachine
+shutdown.
+
+QEMUMachine
+~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The QEMUMachine API is already widely used in the Python iotests,
+device-crash-test and other Python scripts.  It's a wrapper around the
+execution of a QEMU binary, giving its users:
+
+ * the ability to set command line arguments to be given to the QEMU
+   binary
+
+ * a ready to use QMP connection and interface, which can be used to
+   send commands and inspect its results, as well as asynchronous
+   events
+
+ * convenience methods to set commonly used command line arguments in
+   a more succinct and intuitive way
+
+QEMU binary selection
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The QEMU binary used for the ``self.vm`` QEMUMachine instance will
+primarily depend on the value of the ``qemu_bin`` parameter.  If it's
+not explicitly set, its default value will be the result of a dynamic
+probe in the same source tree.  A suitable binary will be one that
+targets the architecture matching host machine.
+
+Based on this description, test writers will usually rely on one of
+the following approaches:
+
+1) Set ``qemu_bin``, and use the given binary
+
+2) Do not set ``qemu_bin``, and use a QEMU binary named like
+   "${arch}-softmmu/qemu-system-${arch}", either in the current
+   working directory, or in the current source tree.
+
+The resulting ``qemu_bin`` value will be preserved in the
+``avocado_qemu.Test`` as an attribute with the same name.
+
+Attribute reference
+-------------------
+
+Besides the attributes and methods that are part of the base
+``avocado.Test`` class, the following attributes are available on any
+``avocado_qemu.Test`` instance.
+
+vm
+~~
+
+A QEMUMachine instance, initially configured according to the given
+``qemu_bin`` parameter.
+
+qemu_bin
+~~~~~~~~
+
+The preserved value of the ``qemu_bin`` parameter or the result of the
+dynamic probe for a QEMU binary in the current working directory or
+source tree.
+
+Parameter reference
+-------------------
+
+To understand how Avocado parameters are accessed by tests, and how
+they can be passed to tests, please refer to::
+
+  http://avocado-framework.readthedocs.io/en/latest/WritingTests.html#accessing-test-parameters
+
+Parameter values can be easily seen in the log files, and will look
+like the following:
+
+.. code::
+
+  PARAMS (key=qemu_bin, path=*, default=x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64) => 'x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64
+
+qemu_bin
+~~~~~~~~
+
+The exact QEMU binary to be used on QEMUMachine.
+
+Uninstalling Avocado
+--------------------
+
+If you've followed the installation instructions above, you can easily
+uninstall Avocado.  Start by listing the packages you have installed::
+
+  pip list --user
+
+And remove any package you want with::
+
+  pip uninstall <package_name>
