+Tempest Field Guide to Baremetal API tests
+==========================================
+
+
+What are these tests?
+---------------------
+
+These tests stress the OpenStack baremetal provisioning API provided by
+Ironic.
+
+
+Why are these tests in tempest?
+------------------------------
+
+The purpose of these tests is to exercise the various APIs provided by Ironic
+for managing baremetal nodes.
+
+
+Scope of these tests
+--------------------
+
+The baremetal API test perform basic CRUD operations on the Ironic node
+inventory.  They do not actually perform hardware provisioning. It is important
+to note that all Ironic API actions are admin operations meant to be used
+either by cloud operators or other OpenStack services (i.e., Nova).
