*   Make crictl command more user friendly and add more subcommands.
    *   Integrate with CRI verbose option to provide extra debug information.
    *   Update CRI to kubernetes v1.9.
    *   Bug fixes in validation test suites.
*   [beta] [cri-containerd](https://github.com/kubernetes-incubator/cri-containerd): CRI implementation for containerd is now v1.0.0-beta.0, [[@Random-Liu](https://github.com/Random-Liu)]

- Refactored `test/e2e/framework` so that the core framework is smaller. Optional functionality like resource monitoring, log size monitoring, metrics gathering and debug information dumping must be imported by specific e2e test suites. Init packages are provided which can be imported to re-enable the functionality that traditionally was in the core framework. If you have code that no longer compiles because of this PR, you can use the script [from a commit message](https://git...

* [alpha] Add a CRI validation test suite and CRI command-line tools. ([#292](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/292), [@feiskyer](https://github.com/feiskyer))

* [stable] [cri-o](https://github.com/kubernetes-incubator/cri-o): CRI implementation for OCI-based runtimes [[@mrunalp](https://github.com/mrunalp)]

  * Passed all the Kubernetes 1.7 end-to-end conformance test suites.

* E2E tests no longer add command line flags directly to the command line, test suites that want that need to be updated if they don't use HandleFlags ([#75593](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/75593), [@pohly](https://github.com/pohly))

* **[alpha]** New Bootstrap Token authentication and management method. Works well with kubeadm. kubeadm now supports managing tokens, including time based expiration, after the cluster...

* Third Party Resource tests in the e2e suite were incorrectly marked as part of the conformance bucket.  They are alpha and are not required for conformance. ([#52823](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/52823), [@smarterclayton](https://github.com/smarterclayton))

- The e2e suite can be instructed not to wait for pods in kube-system to be ready or for all nodes to be ready by passing `--allowed-not-ready-nodes=-1` when invoking the e2e.test program. This allows callers to run subsets of the e2e suite in scenarios other than perfectly healthy clusters. ([#98781](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/98781), [@smarterclayton](...

providers today. This involved auditing the cloud provider APIs for anything that should be deprecated as well as adding changes where necessary. In addition, SIG Cloud Provider has begun exploratory work around having a “cloud provider” e2e test suite which can be used to test common cloud provider functionalities with resources such as nodes and load balancers.

We are also continuing our long running effort to extract all the existing cloud providers that live in k8s.io/kubernetes...
