[x] test approval issue : [x] test pr : [x] two weeks soak end date : 1 Aug 2022 [x] test promotion pr : According to this APIsnoop query, there is still some remaining NamespaceStatus endpoints which are untested. readCoreV1NamespaceStatuspatchCoreV1NamespaceStatus Using a number of existing e2e test practices a new has been created for 2 namespace status endpoints. The e2e logs for this test are listed below. This query shows the endpoints hit within a short period of running the e2e test If a test with these calls gets merged, test coverage will go up by 3 points This test is also created with the goal of conformance promotion. /sig testing /sig architecture /area conformance
