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:

    • VNF 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.

    • NFVI Compliance:
      • what does it mean for NFVI to be compliant?
      • any standard exit?


  • Validation:

    • VNF 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  of VNF (long term vision) - my version of FCAPS:
        • Fault Management
        • Capacity Management
        • Billing/Accounting Management
        • Performance Management
        • Security Management 
    • NFVI Validation:
      • Healthcheck?

  • Performance:

    • NFVI Performance

      • Capacity:

      • Stability:

        • Chaos monkey tests?
      • What is my reference implementation of NFVI? GSMA Profiles (B, N, and C).
      • What are the metrics we need to measure? (align with ETSI, GSMA defined metrics).
        • 1 test per metric?
    • VNF Performance.
      • huge dependency on NFVI. need reference NFVI to compare against. (GSMA Profiles).
      • what are the metrics we need to measure? (align with ETSI, GSMA defined metrics).
        • 1 test per metric?

  • Security:

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

NFVI Testing

  • Compliance:

  • Validation:

  • Performance:
