===== Test Bed Types =====

  1) Development (coding) – for continuous integration with regression testing (hosted by Linux Foundation)
  2) NFVI/VIM Testbed – a developer “sandbox” -> THIS IS THE TESTBED THAT WE WERE DISCUSSING
  3) Specific VNF/PNF (cable, mobile, wireline, etc.) … carrier labs serve this function
  4) Vendor interop of VNF/PNFs … may be temporary (e.g. interop fests)

NFVI/VIM Testbed (from # 2 above) …

  1) A “sandbox” for developer testing
  2) Provides a documented baseline using release candidates of hw/sw ingredients (will keep in sync with OPNFV published reference architectures)
  3) Can host multivendor VNFs (i.e. a combination of VNFs represents a use-case that runs on the test-bed)

===== Types of testing =====
  * Performance of defined use-case
  * Functionality of defined use-case
  * Integration testing in order to host a stable baseline for developers

===== Project focus =====

We identified the following areas to focus on for now and assigned owners to coordinate input and collate a proposal for each …

==== Governance and policy (how to manage) ====
  * Refer to ODL Open lab page [[https://wiki.opendaylight.org/view/CrossProject:Integration_Group:Open_Labs]]
  * Morgan Richomme (Orange) + Chris Donley (Cable Labs)

==== Hw/sw definition ====
  * Sw definition will come from the other sub-group (CI process around upstream projects)
  * Start with one “sku” - additional later
  * Trevor Cooper (Intel)

==== Tooling / IT infrastructure ====
  * Require an test-bed user interface to do manual configuration of node interfaces
  * Test-bed users require remote access to nodes and environment
  * Wenjing Chu (Dell)

==== Use-cases -> test cases (with configurations / test scenarios) ====
  * VNF, macro, micro
  * Test objectives
  * Palani Chinnakannan (CISCO)

==== Other … ====
  * We are not talking about a certification or interoperability lab
  * Purpose is purely for enabling (a community resource)
  * Need specific policy and guideline for how to deal with proprietary technologies in the test-bed
