Testing and coding standards

[tremblerz]

We need to build a robust testing and coding standards infrastructure in order to make sure new changes do not break existing systems. It is going to be critical going forward because the actual SONAR deployment infra also depends on this codebase. Furthermore, this allow us to collaborate on code with a larger community of open-source contributors. We need to finish multiple tasks -

For tests we at least need the following -

1. Tests for config parsers
2. Tests for algorithms to make sure they run.
3. Integration tests to make sure scheduler runs fine

For coding standards, we will rely on our existing pylint github workflow for now and going forward create a contributor guide that shows how to update documentation.
