UTI: Export results
+ Model version 1.0.0. - Only some result types are exported. + MRR, NDRPDR and SOAK. - Other result types to be added later. + In contrast, all test types are detected. + Convert custom classes to JSON-serializable equivalents. + Sort dict keys before converting to JSON. + Override the order for some known keys. + Export sets as sorted arrays. + Convert to info content from serialized raw content. + Also export outputs for suite setups and teardowns. + Info files for setup/teardown exist only temporarily. + The data is merged into suite.info.json file. + This simplifies presentation of total suite duration. + Define model via JSON schema: - Just test case, suite setup/teardown/suite to be added later. - Just info, raw to be added later. + Proper descriptions. + Json is generated from yaml. + This is a convenience for maintainers. + The officially used schema is the .json one. + TODOs written into a separate .txt file. + Validate exported instance against the schema. + Include format checking. + Update CSIT requirements for validation dependencies. + This needs python-dateutil==2.8.2, only a patch bump. + Compute bandwidth also for soak tests. + This unifies with NDRPDR to simplify schema definition. - PAL may need an update for parsing soak test message. + Include SSH log items, raw output only. + Generate all outputs in a single filesystem tree. + Move raw outputs into test_output_raw.tar.xz. + Rename existing tar with suites to generated_robot_files.tar.xz.

It mainly focuses on exporting information gathered during test run

+Output Structure
+-----------------
-No files are exported yet in this version.
+UTI outputs come in filesystem tree structure (single tree), where directories
+correspond to suite levels and files correspond to suite setup, suite teardown
+or any test case at this level of suite.
+The directory name comes from SUITE_NAME Robot variable (the last part
+as the previous parts are higher level suites), converted to lowercase.
+If the suite name contains spaces (Robot converts underscores to spaces),
+they are replaced with underscores.
+
+The filesystem tree is rooted under tests/ (as suites in git are there),
+and for each component (test case, suite setup, suite teardown)
+two files are generated.
+The "raw" variant is suitable for debugging (can contain lower level logging),
+while the "info" variant is suitable for processing by PAL
+(can contain derivative values so PAL does not need to compute them
+on every download).
+Their structure and content is mostly identical, model definition mentions
+if a particular subschema is not identical in the two variants.
+It is possible to convert from raw to info, but not the other way.
+
+Although we expect only ASCII text in the exported files,
+we manipulate files using UTF-8 encoding,
+so if Robot Framework uses a non-ascii character, it will be handled.
+
+JSON schemas
+------------
+
+CSIT model is formally defined as a collection of JSON schema documents,
+one for each output file type.
+
+The current version specifies only one output file type:
+Info output for test case.
+
+The authoritative JSON schema documents are in JSON format.
+Git repository also contains YAML formatted document and conversion utility,
+which simplifies maintaining of the JSON document
+(no need to track brackets and commas), but are not authoritative.
