3. **History Collection:** All client operations and their results are recorded.

4. **Validation:** The collected history is validated against the etcd model and a set of validators to ensure consistency and correctness.

## Re-evaluate existing report

Robustness test validation is constantly changing and improving.

Errors in etcd model could be causing false positives, which makes the ability to re-evaluate the reports after we fix the issue important.

The name of the report directory doesn't matter, as long as it's unique to prevent clashing with reports already present in `testdata` directory.
