Overview

This page is intended to capture discussions and work relating to the longer term strategy and direction of testing within the LFN programs.

Testing Scopes

Note, the following is a work in progress.

VNF Testing

• Compliance:

  • Conformance to HEAT or TOSCA Templates, as defined by ONAP Requirements.

  • Conformance to ONAP VNFRqmts documentation which will integrate other SDO requirements (ie, 5G, BBF, ETSI,...)

  • Documentation of VNF is available.

• Validation:

  • On-boarding: Validate the VNF Artifact(s) is able to be "consumed" by an ONAP instance.

    • Open questions: 1) What are the requirements defined for "On-boarding?" What is the requirement for the "ONAP instance?" 3) Is there a requirement for backwards compatibility? 4) Besides ONAP are there other organizations defining this?

  • Instantiation: Validate the VNF can be "launched" by an ONAP instance on top of an NFVI.

    • Open questions: 1) What is the requirements for ONAP Instance? 2) What is the requirements for the NFVI? 3) What are the requirements for the "VNF launch?"

  • Validate various life-cycle operations are possible with the VNF running on the ONAP Instance.

    • Open questions: 1) What the required "life-cycle operations?" 2) What the requirements for each "operation?" 3) What are the requirements for the "ONAP instance?"

    • Life Cycle Operations my version of FCAPS:
      • Fault Management
      • Capacity Management
      • Billing/Accounting Management
      • Performance Management
      • Security Management 

• Performance:

  • Capacity:

  • Stability:

• Security:

  • Open question: Where do these requirements come from? Who is responsible for the test cases?

NFVI Testing

• Compliance:

• Validation:

• Performance:
