Excerpt

60 minutes, Deepak Kataria 

BluVal (Blueprint Validation) Framework is a cloud native full stack test automation tool based on a disaggregated and layered approach for test and validation of implementations to ensure conformance. BluVal disaggregates the implementation and associated manifests into their layers and provides automated validation framework to test each layer one by one to achieve end-to-end validation of the implementation. All results are standardized by using Robot Framework which creates an html file of test results that is easy to read and interpret. By virtue of its modular design, the BluVal framework is extensible and provides a simple, declarative test harness for authoring and executing test suites. New functional tests can be written up from scratch in Robot, with simple human-readable commands, or existing upstream tests can be quickly integrated with a few lines of template code that can call any other testing or scripting tool. BluVal framework also provides a portal (User Interface) for viewing executed test result.

Agenda

Cloud-Native Full Stack Conformance Validation

...

  • Deepak presented an overview of the BluVal (Blueprint Validation) Framework, demonstrating a cloud-native full stack test automation tool based on a disaggregated and layered approach for test and validation of cloud implementations to ensure conformance.
  • Several existing use-cases shared where BluVal is used for validations today: e.g. Radio Edge Cloud, Connected Vehicle, Integrated Clud Native (ICN), etc.
  • End-to-End automated validation elements comprised of Layers of CD testing from Hardware and OS, to K8S, OpenStack, and Workloads.
  • CI/CD operations operates as a standalone, or integrated LFN LF Edge networks for ingesting blue prints blueprints for validionvalidation, leveraging Jenkins to execute and publish results to a database, viewable from a User Interface (UI).
  • Value-add discussed for layered approached, allowing users to skip layers if not ready/desired, including performing pre-production workload tests from Unit, to Pre-Prod, to Production deployments.
  • Platform is versatile and robust to ingest Opensource test-frameworks and harnesses.
  • Evolutionary roadmap includes integration of Jenkins console for monitoring build executions and results.

More specifically, Deepak Katariato (all opened 6/8 with presentation):

  •  

    Partner with Anuket Members, and respective TSC(s), to integrate RC2 into BluVal.

  •  

    Review RC2 BluVal results, observations, and key takeaways with Anuket RI2/RC2 community.

  •  

    Verify results align with CNCF requirements and compare with existing benchmark results, if available.

  •  Update BluVal blueprints with RC2 requirements, and ensure alignment with the LF Edge and Anuket communities. 
  •  Provide answers or clarity, to questions needed above (#1, #4) (Closed 6/8)
