How to review conformance results

Technical Requirements

The technical requirements for a conformance submission are described in the instructions.md file. The prow.cncf.io bot verifies conformance product submissions against these requirements.

If any of the requirements are not met the prow.cncf.io bot will add a not-verifiable label to the PR and comment with explanations for all requirements that have not been met. The bot will however add labels for all requirements that have been met along with the not-verifiable label. The user can force push updated files to address the errors highlighted by bot.

Once the bot finds all requirements have been met the not-verifiable label would be removed and applicable labels will be added.

A PR meeting all the technical requirement would have the following labels:

  • conformance-product-submission
  • no-failed-tests-v1.xx
  • release-documents-checked
  • release-v1.xx
  • tests-verified-v1.xx

If a PR does not have a not-verifiable label and all other required labels are present, the technical verification is complete.

Policy Requirements

  1. Confirm that the vendor is currently a member of CNCF. If they are not, request that they reach out to memberships@cncf.io to become a member in order to complete their certification. (Companies can alternatively pay a certification fee equal to the cost of membership if, for whatever reason, they don't wish to become a CNCF member.) Alternatively, non-profit organizations (including community distributions like Debian) can certify at no cost.

Review the PRODUCT.yaml file, and:

  1. Verify that there is a Participation Form on file for the vendor, and that the vendor is in good standing in the program.

  2. Verify the product name and website_url are listed in the "Qualifying Offerings" section of the vendor's Participation Form, i.e. that the name and website_url are listed.

  3. Review the name. If it contains the word "Kubernetes" in a non-descriptive fashion, verify that the name is listed in "Participant Kubernetes Combinations" section of the vendor's Participation Form.

If the submission doesn't meet all policy requirements, reply with a message indicating "Signed participation form needed", "Files missing from PR", "Membership in CNCF or confirmation of non-profit status needed", etc.

Tasks to Complete After Review

  1. Update the Kubernetes Distributions & Platforms spreadsheet to reflect the vendor's certified offering.

  2. Add the vendor's information to the CNCF landscape which also causes them to appear on https://www.cncf.io/certification/software-conformance/ and https://kubernetes.io/partners/#conformance.

  3. Add a comment saying "You are now Certified Kubernetes" and merge the PR.
