Background
Certain oc api calls are incorporated in Kiali Jenkins UI automation.
Those calls are suspected to have changed and causing our tests to fail.
<link to one of failed test>

We may consider removing those calls from the tests and this ticket covers the work(s) incurred from such decision to drop those calls.

Discussion
If we do plan on removing those calls, we need to

• Verify that there is sufficient improvement in test robustness

• Understand the 'gap' created from removing those api calls
       what those calls do

     why those calls fails now (those are dynamic calls depending on version of Maistra installed)

     why those calls are included in UI tests (may need to consult original author of tests)

     is there other, better place(s) to contain / cover those API calls

• Estimate how much work it is to answer the above

• Determine if we want to invest on the above

• Prioritize and schedule the work
