This cleaned up, and unified, the instructions for how to run them on the different platforms we support, and introduces upstream testing on OpenShift CI. + +Since the OpenShift CI instance we were using is going away, and we have not found an alternative place to run on OpenShift, we introduced testing on Kubernetes as part of https://issues.redhat.com/browse/WFLY-19334[WFLY-19334 - Add PR testing of Quickstarts on Kubernetes]. This has the benefit of being a lot easier to test on GitHub Actions. + +Following from this, it makes sense to promote the usage of Kubernetes to our users since it is easier to download Kubernetes than to obtain an OpenShift instance. + +== Issue Metadata + +=== Issue + +* https://issues.redhat.com/browse/WFLY[WFLY-19335] + +=== Related Issues + +* https://issues.redhat.com/browse/WFLY[WFLY-19334 - Add PR testing of Quickstarts on Kubernetes] +* https://issues.redhat.com/browse/WFLY-19337[WFLY-19337 - Enable the ejb-txn-remote-call quickstart on Kubernetes CI testing] - at the time of writing this quickstart is not working yet on the Kubernetes CI. +* At the time of writing these quickstarts are not working yet on the Kubernetes CI: +** https://issues.redhat.com/browse/WFLY-19336[WFLY-19336 - Enable the ejb-txn-remote-call quickstart on Kubernetes CI testing ] +** https://issues.redhat.com/browse/WFLY-19337[WFLY-19337 - Enable the ejb-txn-remote-call quickstart on Kubernetes CI testing] + +=== Stability Level +// Choose the planned stability level for the proposed functionality +* [ ] Experimental + +* [ ] Preview + +* [x] Community + +* [ ] default + +=== Dev Contacts + +* mailto:{email}[{author}] + +=== QE Contacts + +=== Testing By +// Put an x in the relevant field to indicate if testing will be done by Engineering or QE. +// Discuss with QE during the Kickoff state to decide this +* [x] Engineering + +* [ ] QE + +=== Affected Projects or Components + +Just the Quickstarts + +=== Other Interested Projects + +None that I am aware of + +=== Relevant Installation Types +// Remove the x next to the relevant field if the feature in question is not relevant +// to that kind of WildFly installation +* [x] Traditional standalone server (unzipped or provisioned by Galleon) + +* [ ] Managed domain + +* [ ] OpenShift s2i + +* [x] Bootable jar + +The choices here aren't really relevant since for Kubernetes we don't rely on OpenShift CI.

In some cases though the documentation belongs more in a component, or does not need any documentation. Indicate which of these will happen. +//// +The community documentation in this case, is the READMEs. So the instructions updated as part of this RFE will cover this aspect. + +== Release Note Content +//// +Draft verbiage for up to a few sentences on the feature for inclusion in the +Release Note blog article for the release that first includes this feature. +Example article: http://wildfly.org/news/2018/08/30/WildFly14-Final-Released/. +This content will be edited, so there is no need to make it perfect or discuss +what release it appears in. "See Overview" is acceptable if the overview is +suitable. For simple features best covered as an item in a bullet-point list +of features containing a few words on each, use "Bullet point: " +//// +Several of the WildFly Quickstarts now include instructions for how to run and test on Kubernetes.
