+# Test Scripts - Refactoring of Common modules
+
+* Proposal: [SDL-NNNN](NNNN-test-scripts-common-modules-refactoring.md)
+* Author: [Dmytro Boltovskyi](https://github.com/dboltovskyi)
+* Status: **Awaiting review**
+* Impacted Platforms: [ATF]
+
+## Introduction
+
+[ATF test scripts](https://github.com/smartdevicelink/sdl_atf_test_scripts/) use a lot of functions in commonly used modules, like:
+
+  - data accessors: file, database
+  - functions for tables: print, copy
+  - sequences:
+    - create mobile session
+    - register/activate mobile application
+    - perform policy table update
+  - etc.
+
+All these functionality are not tests artifacts but tools that tests use.
+
+The purpose of this proposal is to clean up these common modules that everyone is able to use while creating ATF test scripts.
+
+## Motivation
+
+Current downsides of common modules are:
+
+  - There is no clear structure
+  - Lack of description for huge amount of functions
+  - There is no single standard for the functions
+  - Some functions are duplicated
+  - A lot of outdated and unused code
+
+## Proposed solution
+
+In order to clean up the common modules there are following items needs to be done.
+
+### Leave existing modules as is for backward compatibility
+
+By leaving all existing modules currently located in ./user_modules folder as is
+it will be possible to use all existing ATF test scripts without changes.
+
+### Design a standard template for functions
+
+Each function in common modules should follow a template. E.g.:
+
+```lua
+--[[ @jsonFileToTable: convert .json file to table
+--! @parameters:
+--! pFileName - input file name
+--! @return: table with data
+--]]
+local function jsonFileToTable(pFileName)
+  local f = io.open(pFileName, "r")
+  local content = f:read("*all")
+  f:close()
+  return json.decode(content)
+end
+```
+
+### Create new folders structure
+
+In test scripts repository create the following folders structure:
+
+```
+  ./common_modules/
+          utils/
+          sequences/
+```
+
+  - utils - folder for modules with utility functions (e.g.: data accessors, table functions, data converters, etc.)
+  - sequences - folder for modules with common sequences (e.g.: register/activate mobile application, policy update, put file, etc.)
+
+### Transfer most used common functions into a new folder
+
+Most used functions need to be transferred from existing "user_modules" to a new "common_modules" folder in appropriate module file.
+Also they need to be updated according to a new template.
+A few functions can be placed in one module file.
+
+### Follow new approach when developing new ATF test scripts
+
+  - In newly created ATF scripts use only functions from new "common_modules" folder and not from an old "user_modules" one
+  - If some utility or common sequence function doesn't exist - create it in a new "common_modules" in appropriate module file using standard template
+
+## Potential downsides
+
+Existing ATF test scripts must be updated if some function from new common modules is required.
+
+## Impact on existing code
+
+Since new common modules is going to be implemented in a new separate folder there will be no impact on existing code.
+
+## Alternatives considered
+
+Use current approach.
