Testing and Delivery of the Base Container Images (osc23)

BCI (Base Container Images) is a set of open-source container images that developers and operators can use as a foundation for containerizing applications. BCIs cover a wide range of use cases and scenarios compared to traditional enterprise distribution images. We had to take a different approach to testing and delivery to cover all these new use cases. In this session we briefly cover the history of the Base Container Images and the tooling that we created in the process. This includes our [Dockerfile generator](https://github.com/SUSE/BCI-dockerfile-generator), the [BCI test suite](https://github.com/SUSE/BCI-tests/), and the [`pytest_container`](https://github.com/dcermak/pytest_container) plugin. We also take a look how we moved the development from our internal build service to the [public Open Build Service](https://build.opensuse.org/project/subprojects/devel:BCI) and then to [Github](https://github.com/SUSE/BCI-dockerfile-generator).
