+ | * Test cases | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Deployment configurations | ||
+ | * VNF configuration | ||
+ | * Network topology / configuration | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Focus is on functional testing - verify OPNFV Platform functionality of VIM and NFVI | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Approach | ||
+ | * Break down the use case into a basic core function in its minimalistic form and provides the necessary topology, traffic patterns etc | ||
+ | * Collect info in traffic profiles | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Use cases initially proposed | ||
+ | * virtual Provider Edge | ||
+ | * virtual Evolved Packet Core | ||
+ | * IP Multimedia Subsystem | ||
+ | * Content Delivery Network, CDN Node | ||
+ | * Home Gateway, NAT, ALG, RGW etc. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | **__Performance Benchmarking__** | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Test cases (Test Specification) | ||
+ | * Characterize components … NIC, vSwitch, hypervisor, etc. | ||
+ | * Map to VNF deployment use-cases | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Platform configuration | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Focus is on performance testing | ||
+ | * verify OPNFV Platform performance of NFVI components and sub-systems | ||
+ | * identify performance limiting hardware and software entities in the system and provide solutions to improve the performance of the system | ||
+ | * Scaling and performance the NIC, vNIC, vSwitch, hyper-visor, CPU, Memory, storage devices etc., and their associated metrics like throughput, latency, cpu utilization, etc | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Approach | ||
+ | * test cases that are used to measure the OPNFV platform characteristics as well as certain core functions of the OPNFV platform | ||
+ | * specify various platform components and associated metrics and detailed test plan | ||
