+The basic idea of the test is that there are a number of actions, roughly
 corresponding to the Compute API, that are fired pseudo-randomly at a nova 
 cluster as fast as possible. These actions consist of what to do, how to
 verify success, and a state filter to make sure that the operation makes sense.
 For example, if the action is to reboot a server and none are active, nothing
 should be done. A test case is a set of actions to be performed and the
