UML diagrams for openQA test code

This project is intended to provide a graphical representation of openQA SUSE test code using a metalanguage for UML diagrams generation, for planning and debugging purposes.

The openqa reference code is in https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-opensuse

In particular, the initial demo of the UML coding is a reverse engineering of some test routines for Public Cloud, of the Perl module https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-opensuse/blob/master/lib/main_publiccloud.pm

The UML diagrams are used to represent a graphical view of a project, helping to write the code, add changes and even improve the logic of the code or identify bugs.

Here we refer to the https://plantuml.com tool documentation.

• Many web editor are available to represent the resulting images, like https://plantuml.com/plantuml or https://www.planttext.com/

• But also an offline version of the UML interpreter is available, using a jar file, available from https://plantuml.com/download and used as explained in https://plantuml.com/faq-install and https://plantuml.com/command-line

• Finally, a Visual Studio Code plugin is also available to render the UML code and generate the diagrams. To install it: Launch VS Code Quick Open (Ctrl+P), paste the following command, and press enter:
  ext install plantuml
  then click Alt+D for the preview.
