OSS release tests currently run with hardcoded Python 3.7 base. In the future we will want to run tests on different python versions.
This PR adds support for a new `python` field in the test configuration. The python field will determine both the base image used in the Buildkite runner docker container (for Ray client compatibility) and the base image for the Anyscale cluster environments.
Note that in Buildkite, we will still only wait for the python 3.7 base image before kicking off tests. That is acceptable, as we can assume that most wheels finish in a similar time, so even if we wait for the 3.7 image and kick off a 3.8 test, that runner will wait maybe for 5-10 more minutes.
What: Adds a setting "prefer_smoke_tests" to the Buildkite settings. With this, user can specify to kick off smoke tests, if available.
Why: The filtering interface of the release testing dialog is a bit complicated at the moment - in order to kick off smoke tests, users have to know with which frequency they are configured to run. Instead users should usually just filter the tests they want to run (using frequency ANY) and optionally specify to run smoke tests, if available.
#22749 broke release unit tests by not providing a legacy key - that key should be optional because we will b dealing with non-legacy tests soon.
Additionally, for some reason the unit tests pass on buildkite while they fail locally and in the release test pipeline. I'm investigating this now...
Adds a unit-tested and restructured ray_release package for running release tests.
Relevant changes in behavior:
Per default, Buildkite will wait for the wheels of the current commit to be available. Alternatively, users can a) specify a different commit hash, b) a wheels URL (which we will also wait for to be available) or c) specify a branch (or user/branch combination), in which case the latest available wheels will be used (e.g. if master is passed, behavior matches old default behavior).
The main subpackages are:
Cluster manager: Creates cluster envs/computes, starts cluster, terminates cluster
Command runner: Runs commands, e.g. as client command or sdk command
File manager: Uploads/downloads files to/from session
Reporter: Reports results (e.g. to database)
Much of the code base is unit tested, but there are probably some pieces missing.
