143 Key benefits
144 ------------
145
146  * the enduser can run all tests by setting only one input (EXTERNAL_NETWORK)
147  * the developer can only work on the test suites without diving into CI/CD
148    integration
149  * both OpenStack and Kubernetes deployments can be verified
150  * Functest test cases are trustable as they meet the best coding rules (unit
151    tests, coverage, linters, etc.)
152  * Functest can be reused in other projects (e.g.
153    `ONS: Re-using OPNFV framework tests for LFN projects`_)
