-The OPNFV compliance ​testing project (affirm) intends to define and provide a set of OPNFV related validation criteria ​for levels of OPNFV compliance ​that will provide for the evaluation of the use of OPNFV trademarks. ​ The affirm ​project will be executed with the guidance and oversight of the Compliance and Certification committee and work to secure the goals of the C&C committee for each release.+The OPNFV testing project (dovetail) intends to define and provide a set of OPNFV related validation criteria that will provide ​input for the evaluation of the use of OPNFV trademarks. ​ The dovetail ​project will be executed with the guidance and oversight of the Compliance and Certification committee and work to secure the goals of the C&C committee for each release.
