Please add your suggestions for the OPNFV plugfest below. Timeline for topic selection is:
- Initial proposals due for review
- Review will be undertaken by the Plugfest Planning Meeting / Participants and feedback will be provided
- Review proposals and select topics
- Final review and selections will be made for the plugfest tracks.
Plugfest planners are requesting more of a focus on developer engagement and less on content presentation. Consequently, proposals that are development oriented are more likely to be selected for the Prague OPNFV Plugfest. We are expecting to select between 4 and 5 plugfest topics / tracks. These tracks will run throughout the week, with the goal to deliver the outcome described in the proposed. The event will wrap up, with each track providing a 10 minute update the event closing plenary on Thursday.
For Plugfest challenges, state the hacking challenge and include the technologies of interest so that developers can self-identify if they have the skills for the challenge.

OVP VNF Hacking Track
Short Description: Provide a collaborative and safe environment for VNF vendors to try out ONAP/OPNFV interop via OVP and other tooling. VNF participants completing full passing runs will be able to submit the results to the OVP portal, to have their product listed with the VNF badge.
- Detailed Description: Hands-on testing topics include the following. Get more information here.
- Compliance testing (via OVP tooling)
- Validation testing (via OVP beta tooling)
- Additional LCM testing (ad-hoc tooling/GUI)
- Additional monitoring testing (ad-hoc tooling/GUI)
As part of this track, labs are being organized to host existing instances of the ONAP El Alto release (first release with validation tests cases included) to support the testing efforts. We will have experts and test developers participating in the track, to assist with debugging issues and to answer questions about the requirements or test results. If time permits and resources are available, VNF participants will be able to try out more advanced cases on the ONAP infrastructure, such as VNF configuration, scale-out / scale-in, etc.
Note: even though the session is optimized for VNF vendors, PNF/CNF vendors are welcome
