## Owner reference relationships in Cluster API

The below tables map out the a reference for ownership relationships for the objects in a Cluster API cluster.
The below tables map out the a reference for ownership relationships for the objects in a Cluster API cluster. The tables are identical for classy and non-classy clusters.


Providers may implement their own ownership relationships which may or may not map directly to the below tables.
These owner references are almost all tested in an [end-to-end test](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/cluster-api/blob/caaa74482b51fae777334cd7a29595da1c06481e/test/e2e/quick_start_test.go#L31). Lack of testing is noted where this is not the case. CAPI Providers can take advantage of the e2e test framework to ensure their owner references are predictable, documented and stable.
