- The conformance tests:
  - Services should serve multiport endpoints from pods
  - Services should serve a basic endpoint from pods
  were only validating the API objects, not performing any validation on the actual Services implementation.

- E2e tests wait for kube-root-ca.crt to be populated in namespaces for use with projected service account tokens, reducing delays starting those test pods and errors in the logs. ([#108860](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/108860), [@eddiezane](https://github.com/eddiezane)) [SIG Testing]

* fixed foreground deletion of podtemplates ([#60683](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/60683), [@nilebox](https://github.com/nilebox))

* Conformance tests are added for the DaemonSet kinds in the apps/v1 group version. Deprecated versions of DaemonSet will not be tested for conformance, and conformance is only applicable to release 1.10 and later. ([#60456](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/60456), [@kow3ns](https://github.com/kow3ns))

  // hostPath represents a directory on the host.
  // Provisioned by a developer or tester.
  // This is useful for single-node development and testing only!
  // On-host storage is not supported in any way and WILL NOT WORK in a multi-node cluster.

- The `NetworkPolicyLegacy` test suite (deprecated in `v1.21`) has now officially been removed in favor of the new table driven e2e tests. ([#118915](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/118915), [@astoycos](https://github.com/astoycos))

### Windows support improved

- [Performance dashboards](http://perf-dash.k8s.io/#/?jobname=soak-tests-capz-windows-2019) added support for Windows
- [Unit tests](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/51540) added support for Windows
- [Conformance tests](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/108592) added support for Windows

### SIG Scalability

SIG Scalability has mostly focused on stability and deflaking our tests, investing into framework for writing scalability tests (ClusterLoader v2) with a goal to migrate all tests to it by the end of 2018 and on the work towards extending definition of Kubernetes scalability by providing more/better user-friendly SLIs/SLOs.
