This short report brings to light some interesting commits to [scylla-cluster-tests.git master](https://github.com/scylladb/scylla-cluster-tests) from the last week.  
Commits in the 93db67c8…1434c81d range are covered.

There were 18 non-merge commits from 10 authors in that period. Some notable commits:

Due to the lack of support for specific features in Amazon Linux 2 and its upcoming EOL, [Amazon2 artifact tests were retired](https://github.com/scylladb/scylla-cluster-tests/commit/1568a5a51886199affe308c2b90f3c9ae159a63b).

Artifact tests now [validate the output of `perftune.py`](https://github.com/scylladb/scylla-cluster-tests/commit/a95477090283726d595b27021d9662669c748ea4), ensuring correct CPU and IRQ masks as well as the default perftune configuration.

A new guide has been added for [configuring and using full-scan and full-partition-scan background threads](https://github.com/scylladb/scylla-cluster-tests/commit/a77c36ed584dc90e3a49d410807d9d6cb7801204).

When listing cloud resources with Hydra, users can now [limit the scope to a single cloud provider](https://github.com/scylladb/scylla-cluster-tests/commit/b4f7e3478e4fdb75b7d051f507b7d31a4837951d) for faster processing. Use `--backend <backend-type>` where `<backend-type>` can be one of `[aws, gce, azure, eks, docker]`, e.g., `hydra list-resources --backend aws --user <user>`.

See you in the next issue of last week in scylla-cluster-tests.git master!
