Introduction
============
Functest is a project dealing with functional testing.
-Functest produces its own internal test cases but can also be considered
+The project produces its own internal test cases but can also be considered
as a framework to support feature and VNF onboarding project testing.
-Functest developed a TestAPI and defined a test collection framework
-that can be used by any OPNFV project.
Therefore there are many ways to contribute to Functest. You can:
* Develop new internal test cases
* Integrate the tests from your feature project
* Develop the framework to ease the integration of external test cases
- * Develop the API / Test collection framework
- * Develop dashboards or automatic reporting portals
+
+Additional tasks involving Functest but addressing all the test projects
+may also be mentioned:
+
+ * The API / Test collection framework
+ * The dashboards
+ * The automatic reporting portals
+ * The testcase catalog
This document describes how, as a developer, you may interact with the
Functest project. The first section details the main working areas of
Functest High level architecture
================================
-Functest is project delivering a test container dedicated to OPNFV.
+Functest is a project delivering test containers dedicated to OPNFV.
It includes the tools, the scripts and the test scenarios.
+In Euphrates Alpine containers have been introduced in order to lighten the
+container and manage testing slicing. The new containers are created according
+to the different tiers:
+
+ * functest-core: https://hub.docker.com/r/opnfv/functest-core/
+ * functest-healthcheck: https://hub.docker.com/r/opnfv/functest-healthcheck/
+ * functest-smoke: https://hub.docker.com/r/opnfv/functest-smoke/
+ * functest-features: https://hub.docker.com/r/opnfv/functest-features/
+ * functest-components: https://hub.docker.com/r/opnfv/functest-components/
+ * functest-vnf: https://hub.docker.com/r/opnfv/functest-vnf/
+ * functest-restapi: https://hub.docker.com/r/opnfv/functest-restapi/
+
+Standalone functest dockers are maintained for Euphrates but Alpine containers
+are recommended.
Functest can be described as follow::

+upstream suites (e.g. Tempest/Rally developed in OpenStack, or odl suites are
+just integrated in Functest).

Functest external test cases
============================
-The external test cases are inherited from other OPNFV projects,
-especially the feature projects.

+
+External test cases integrated in previous versions but not released in
+Euphrates:
+ * copper
+ * moon
+ * netready
+ * security_scan
+
+
+The code to run these test cases is hosted in the repository of the project.
+Please note that orchestra test cases are hosted in Functest repository and not
+in orchestra repository. Vyos_vrouter and juju_vepc code is also hosted in
+functest as there are no dedicated projects.
-The code to run these test cases may be directly in the repository of
-the project. We have also a **features** sub directory under opnfv_tests
-directory that may be used (it can be usefull if you want to reuse
-Functest library).
Functest framework
==================
-Functest can be considered as a framework.
-Functest is release as a docker file, including tools, scripts and a CLI
-to prepare the environement and run tests.
-It simplifies the integration of external test suites in CI pipeline
-and provide commodity tools to collect and display results.

Functest abstraction classes
============================
-In order to harmonize test integration, 3 abstraction classes have been
-introduced in Danube:
+In order to harmonize test integration, abstraction classes have been
+introduced:
* testcase: base for any test case
+ * unit: run unit tests as test case
* feature: abstraction for feature project
- * vnf_base: abstraction for vnf onboarding

Functest util classes
=====================
-In order to simplify the creation of test cases, Functest develops some
-functions that can be used by any feature or internal test cases.
+In order to simplify the creation of test cases, Functest develops also some
+functions that are used by internal test cases.
Several features are supported such as logger, configuration management and
-Openstack capabilities (snapshot, clean, tacker,..).
-These functions can be found under <repo>/functest/utils and can be described as
-follows:
-
-functest/utils/
-|-- config.py
-|-- constants.py
-|-- env.py
-|-- functest_logger.py
-|-- functest_utils.py
-|-- openstack_clean.py
-|-- openstack_snapshot.py
-|-- openstack_tacker.py
-`-- openstack_utils.py
-
-Note that for Openstack, keystone v3 is now deployed by default by compass,
-fuel and joid in Danube. All installers still support keysone v2 (deprecated in
-next version).
-
-Test collection framework
-=========================
-
-The OPNFV testing group created a test collection database to collect
-the test results from CI:
-
-
- http://testresults.opnfv.org/test/swagger/spec.html
-
- Authentication: opnfv/api@opnfv
-
-Any test project running on any lab integrated in CI can push the
-results to this database.
-This database can be used to see the evolution of the tests and compare
-the results versus the installers, the scenarios or the labs.
-
-
-Overall Architecture
---------------------
-The Test result management can be summarized as follows::
-
- +-------------+ +-------------+ +-------------+
- | | | | | |
- | Test | | Test | | Test |

-
-TestAPI description
--------------------
-The TestAPI is used to declare pods, projects, test cases and test
-results. Pods are the pods used to run the tests.
-The results pushed in the database are related to pods, projects and
-cases. If you try to push results of test done on non referenced pod,
-the API will return an error message.
-
-An additional method dashboard has been added to post-process
-the raw results in release Brahmaputra (deprecated in Colorado).
-
-The data model is very basic, 5 objects are created:
-
- * Pods
- * Projects
- * Testcases
- * Results
- * Scenarios
-
-The code of the API is hosted in the releng repository `[6]`_.
-The static documentation of the API can be found at `[17]`_.
-The TestAPI has been dockerized and may be installed locally in your
-lab. See `[15]`_ for details.
-
-The deployment of the TestAPI has been automated.
-A jenkins job manages:
- * the unit tests of the TestAPI
- * the creation of a new docker file
- * the deployment of the new TestAPI
- * the archive of the old TestAPI
- * the backup of the Mongo DB
-
-TestAPI Authorization
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-PUT/DELETE/POST operations of the TestAPI now require token based authorization. The token needs
-to be added in the request using a header 'X-Auth-Token' for access to the database.
-
-e.g::
- headers['X-Auth-Token']
-
-The value of the header i.e the token can be accessed in the jenkins environment variable
-*TestApiToken*. The token value is added as a masked password.
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
- headers['X-Auth-Token'] = os.environ.get('TestApiToken')
-
-The above example is in Python. Token based authentication has been added so that only ci pods
-jenkins job can have access to the database.
-
-Please note that currently token authorization is implemented but is not yet enabled.
-
- Automatic reporting
- ===================
-
- An automatic reporting page has been created in order to provide a
- consistant view of the scenarios.
- In this page, each scenario is evaluated according to test criteria.
- The code for the automatic reporting is available at `[8]`_.
-
- The results are collected from the centralized database every day and,
- per scenario. A score is calculated based on the results from the last
- 10 days. This score is the addition of single test scores. Each test
- case has a success criteria reflected in the criteria field from the
- results.
-
- Considering an instance of a scenario os-odl_l2-nofeature-ha, the
- scoring is the addition of the scores of all the runnable tests from the
- categories (tiers healthcheck, smoke and features)
- corresponding to this scenario.

- src: colorado (see release note for the last matrix version)
-
- All the testcases listed in the table are runnable on
- os-odl_l2-nofeature scenarios.
- If no result is available or if all the results are failed, the test
- case get 0 point.
- If it was succesfull at least once but not anymore during the 4 runs,
- the case get 1 point (it worked once).
- If at least 3 of the last 4 runs were successful, the case get 2 points.
- If the last 4 runs of the test are successful, the test get 3 points.
-
- In the example above, the target score for fuel/os-odl_l2-nofeature-ha
- is 3x6 = 18 points.
-
- The scenario is validated per installer when we got 3 points for all
- individual test cases (e.g 18/18).
- Please note that complex or long duration tests are not considered for
- the scoring. The success criteria are not always easy to define and may
- require specific hardware configuration. These results however provide
- a good level of trust on the scenario.
-
- A web page is automatically generated every day to display the status.
- This page can be found at `[9]`_. For the status, click on Status menu,
- you may also get feedback for vims and tempest_smoke_serial test cases.
-
- Any validated scenario is stored in a local file on the web server. In
- fact as we are using a sliding windows to get results, it may happen
- that a successful scenarios is no more run (because considered as
- stable) and then the number of iterations (4 needed) would not be
- sufficient to get the green status.
-
- Please note that other test cases (e.g. sfc_odl, bgpvpn) need also
- ODL configuration addons and as a consequence specific scenario.
- There are not considered as runnable on the generic odl_l2 scenario.
-
-Dashboard
-=========
+Openstack capabilities (tacker,..).
+These functions can be found under <repo>/functest/utils and can be described
+as follows::
-Dashboard is used to provide a consistant view of the results collected
-in CI.
-The results showed on the dashboard are post processed from the Database,
-which only contains raw results.
+ functest/utils/
+ |-- config.py
+ |-- constants.py
+ |-- decorators.py
+ |-- env.py
+ |-- functest_utils.py
+ |-- openstack_tacker.py
+ `-- openstack_utils.py
-In Brahmaputra, we created a basic dashboard.
-Since Colorado, it was decided to adopt ELK framework. Mongo DB results
-are extracted to feed Elasticsearch database (`[7]`_).
+It is recommended to use the SNAPS-OO library for deploying OpenStack
+instances. SNAPS `[4]`_ is an OPNFV project providing OpenStack utils.
-A script was developed to build elasticsearch data set. This
-script can be found in `[16]`_.
-For next versions, it was decided to integrated bitergia dashboard.
-Bitergia already provides a dashboard for code and infrastructure.
-A new Test tab will be added. The dataset will be built by consuming
-the TestAPI.

-=======
-How TOs
+TestAPI
=======
+Functest is using the Test collection framework and the TestAPI developed by
+the OPNFV community. See `[6]`_ for details.
-How Functest works?
-===================
-
-The installation and configuration of the Functest docker image is
-described in `[1]`_.
-
-The procedure to start tests is described in `[2]`_
-
-
-How can I contribute to Functest?
-=================================
-
-If you are already a contributor of any OPNFV project, you can
-contribute to functest. If you are totally new to OPNFV, you must first
-create your Linux Foundation account, then contact us in order to
-declare you in the repository database.
-
-We distinguish 2 levels of contributors:
-
- * the standard contributor can push patch and vote +1/0/-1 on any Functest patch
- * The commitor can vote -2/-1/0/+1/+2 and merge
-
-Functest commitors are promoted by the Functest contributors.
-
-
-Where can I find some help to start?
-====================================
-
-This guide is made for you. You can also have a look at the project wiki
-page `[10]`_.
-There are references on documentation, video tutorials, tips...
-
-You can also directly contact us by mail with [Functest] prefix in the
-title at opnfv-tech-discuss@lists.opnfv.org or on the IRC chan
-#opnfv-functest.
-
-
-What kind of testing do you do in Functest?
-===========================================
-
-Functest is focusing on Functional testing. The results must be PASS or
-FAIL. We do not deal with performance and/or qualification tests.
-We consider OPNFV as a black box and execute our tests from the jumphost
-according to Pharos reference technical architecture.
-
-Upstream test suites are integrated (Rally/Tempest/ODL/ONOS,...).
-If needed Functest may bootstrap temporarily testing activities if they
-are identified but not covered yet by an existing testing project (e.g
-security_scan before the creation of the security repository)
-
-
-How test constraints are defined?
-=================================
-
-Test constraints are defined according to 2 paramaters:
-
- * The scenario (DEPLOY_SCENARIO env variable)
- * The installer (INSTALLER_TYPE env variable)
-
-A scenario is a formal description of the system under test.
-The rules to define a scenario are described in `[4]`_
-
-These 2 constraints are considered to determinate if the test is runnable
-or not (e.g. no need to run onos suite on odl scenario).
-
-In the test declaration for CI, the test owner shall indicate these 2
-constraints. The file testcases.yaml `[5]`_ must be patched in git to
-include new test cases. A more elaborated system based on template is
-planned for next releases
-
-For each dependency, it is possible to define a regex::
-
- name: promise
- criteria: 'success_rate == 100%'
- description: >-
- Test suite from Promise project.
- dependencies:
- installer: '(fuel)|(joid)'
- scenario: ''
-
-In the example above, it means that promise test will be runnable only
-with joid or fuel installers on any scenario.
-
-The vims criteria means any installer and exclude onos and odl with
-bgpvpn scenarios::
-
- name: vims
- criteria: 'status == "PASS"'
- description: >-
- This test case deploys an OpenSource vIMS solution from Clearwater
- using the Cloudify orchestrator. It also runs some signaling traffic.
- dependencies:
- installer: ''
- scenario: '(ocl)|(nosdn)|^(os-odl)((?!bgpvpn).)*$'
-
-
-How to write and check constaint regex?
-=======================================
-
-Regex are standard regex. You can have a look at `[11]`_
-
-You can also easily test your regex via an online regex checker such as `[12]`_.
-Put your scenario in the TEST STRING window (e.g. os-odl_l3-ovs-ha), put
-your regex in the REGULAR EXPRESSION window, then you can test your rule.
-
-
-How to know which test I can run?
-=================================
-
-You can use the API `[13]`_. The static declaration is in git `[5]`_
-
-If you are in a Functest docker container (assuming that the
-environement has been prepared): just use the CLI.
-
-You can get the list per Test cases or by Tier::
-
- # functest testcase list
- healthcheck
- vping_ssh
- vping_userdata
- tempest_smoke_serial
- rally_sanity
- odl
- doctor
- security_scan
- tempest_full_parallel
- rally_full
- vims
- # functest tier list
- - 0. healthcheck:
- ['healthcheck']
- - 1. smoke:
- ['vping_ssh', 'vping_userdata', 'tempest_smoke_serial', 'rally_sanity']
- - 2. sdn_suites:
- ['odl']
- - 3. features:
- ['doctor', 'security_scan']
- - 4. openstack:
- ['tempest_full_parallel', 'rally_full']
- - 5. vnf:
- ['vims']
-
-
-How to manually start Functest tests?
-=====================================
-
-Assuming that you are connected on the jumphost and that the system is
-"Pharos compliant", i.e the technical architecture is compatible with
-the one defined in the Pharos project::
-
- # docker pull opnfv/functest:latest
- # envs="-e INSTALLER_TYPE=fuel -e INSTALLER_IP=10.20.0.2 -e DEPLOY_SCENARIO=os-odl_l2-nofeature-ha -e CI_DEBUG=true"
- # sudo docker run --privileged=true -id ${envs} opnfv/functest:latest /bin/bash
-
-
-Then you must connect to the docker container and source the
-credentials::
-
- # docker ps (copy the id)
- # docker exec -ti <container_id> bash
- # source $creds
-
-
-You must first check if the environment is ready::
-
- # functest env status
- Functest environment ready to run tests.
-
-
-If not ready, prepare the env by launching::
-
- # functest env prepare
- Functest environment ready to run tests.
-
-Once the Functest env is ready, you can use the CLI to start tests.
-
-You can run test cases per test case or per tier:
- # functest testcase run <case name> or # functest tier run <tier name>
-
-
-e.g::
-
- # functest testcase run tempest_smoke_serial
- # functest tier run features
-
-
-If you want to run all the tests you can type::
-
- # functest testcase run all
-
-
-If you want to run all the tiers (same at the end that running all the
-test cases) you can type::
-
- # functest tier run all
-
-
-How to declare my tests in Functest?
-====================================
-
-If you want to add new internal test cases, you can submit patch under
-the testcases directory of Functest repository.
-
-For feature test integration, the code can be kept into your own
-repository. The Functest files to be modified are:
-
- * functest/docker/Dockerfile: get your code in Functest container
- * functest/ci/testcases.yaml: reference your test and its associated constraints
-
-
-Dockerfile
-----------
-
-This file lists the repositories (internal or external) to be cloned in
-the Functest container. You can also add external packages::
-
- RUN git clone https://gerrit.opnfv.org/gerrit/<your project> ${REPOS_DIR}/<your project>
-
-testcases.yaml
---------------
-
-All the test cases that must be run from CI / CLI must be declared in
-ci/testcases.yaml.
-This file is used to get the constraints related to the test::
-
- name: <my_super_test_case>
- criteria: <not used yet in Colorado, could be > 'PASS', 'rate > 90%'
- description: >-
- <the description of your super test suite>
- dependencies:
- installer: regex related to installer e.g. 'fuel', '(apex)||(joid)'
- scenario: regex related to the scenario e.g. 'ovs*no-ha'
-
-
-You must declare your test case in one of the category (tier).
-
-If you are integrating test suites from a feature project, the default
-category is **features**.
-
-
-How to select my list of tests for CI?
-======================================
-
-Functest can be run automatically from CI, a jenkins job is usually
-called after an OPNFV fresh installation.
-By default we try to run all the possible tests (see `[14]` called from
-Functest jenkins job)::
-
- cmd="python ${FUNCTEST_REPO_DIR}/ci/run_tests.py -t all ${flags}"
-
-
-Each case can be configured as daily and/or weekly task.
-Weekly tasks are used for long duration or experimental tests.
-Daily tasks correspond to the minimum set of test suites to validate a scenario.
-
-When executing run_tests.py, a check based on the jenkins build tag will
-be considered to detect whether it is a daily and/or a weekly test.
-
-in your CI you can customize the list of test you want to run by case or
-by tier, just change the line::
-
- cmd="python ${FUNCTEST_REPO_DIR}/ci/run_tests.py -t <whatever you want> ${flags}"
-
-e.g.::
-
- cmd="python ${FUNCTEST_REPO_DIR}/ci/run_tests.py -t healthcheck,smoke ${flags}"
-
-This command will run all the test cases of the first 2 tiers, i.e.
-healthcheck, connection_check, api_check, vping_ssh, vping_userdata,
-snaps_somke, tempest_smoke_serial and rally_sanity.
-
-
-How to push your results into the Test Database
-===============================================
-
-The test database is used to collect test results. By default it is
-enabled only for CI tests from Production CI pods.
-
-The architecture and associated API is described in previous chapter.
-If you want to push your results from CI, you just have to call the API
-at the end of your script.
-
-You can also reuse a python function defined in functest_utils.py::
-
- def push_results_to_db(db_url, case_name, logger, pod_name,version, payload):
- """
- POST results to the Result target DB
- """
- url = db_url + "/results"
- installer = get_installer_type(logger)
- params = {"project_name": "functest", "case_name": case_name,
- "pod_name": pod_name, "installer": installer,
- "version": version, "details": payload}
-
- headers = {'Content-Type': 'application/json'}
- try:
- r = requests.post(url, data=json.dumps(params), headers=headers)
- if logger:
- logger.debug(r)
- return True
- except Exception, e:
- print "Error [push_results_to_db('%s', '%s', '%s', '%s', '%s')]:" \
- % (db_url, case_name, pod_name, version, payload), e
- return False
-
-
-Where can I find the documentation on the test API?
-===================================================
-
-http://artifacts.opnfv.org/releng/docs/testapi.html
-
-
-How to exclude Tempest case from default Tempest smoke suite?
-=============================================================
-
-Tempest default smoke suite deals with 165 test cases.
-Since Colorado the success criteria is 100%, i.e. if 1 test is failed the
-success criteria is not matched for the scenario.
-
-It is necessary to exclude some test cases that are expected to fail due to
-known upstream bugs (see release notes).
-
-A file has been created for such operation: https://git.opnfv.org/cgit/functest/tree/functest/opnfv_tests/openstack/tempest/custom_tests/blacklist.txt.
-
-It can be described as follows::
-
- -
- scenarios:
- - os-odl_l2-bgpvpn-ha
- - os-odl_l2-bgpvpn-noha
- installers:
- - fuel
- - apex
- tests:
- - tempest.api.compute.servers.test_create_server.ServersTestJSON.test_list_servers
- - tempest.api.compute.servers.test_create_server.ServersTestJSON.test_verify_server_details
- - tempest.api.compute.servers.test_create_server.ServersTestManualDisk.test_list_servers
- - tempest.api.compute.servers.test_create_server.ServersTestManualDisk.test_verify_server_details
- - tempest.api.compute.servers.test_server_actions.ServerActionsTestJSON.test_reboot_server_hard
- - tempest.scenario.test_network_basic_ops.TestNetworkBasicOps.test_network_basic_ops
- - tempest.scenario.test_server_basic_ops.TestServerBasicOps.test_server_basic_ops
- - tempest.scenario.test_volume_boot_pattern.TestVolumeBootPattern.test_volume_boot_pattern
- - tempest.scenario.test_volume_boot_pattern.TestVolumeBootPatternV2.test_volume_boot_pattern
-
-Please note that each exclusion must be justified. the goal is not to exclude
-test cases because they do not pass. Several scenarios reached the 100% criteria.
-So it is expected in the patch submited to exclude the cases to indicate the
-reasons of the exclusion.
-
-
-How do I know the Functest status of a scenario?
-================================================
-
-A Functest automatic reporting page is generated daily.
-This page is dynamically created through a cron job and is based on the results
-stored in the Test DB.
-You can access this reporting page: http://testresults.opnfv.org/reporting
-
-See https://wiki.opnfv.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=6828617 for details.
-
-
-I have tests, to which category should I declare them?
-======================================================
-
-CATEGORIES/TIERS description:
-
-+----------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+
-| healthcheck | Simple OpenStack healtcheck tests case that validates the |
-| | basic operations in OpenStack |
-+----------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+
-| Smoke | Set of smoke test cases/suites to validate the most common |
-| | OpenStack and SDN Controller operations |
-+----------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+
-| Features | Test cases that validate a specific feature on top of OPNFV.|
-| | Those come from Feature projects and need a bit of support |
-| | for integration |
-+----------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+
-| Components | Advanced Openstack tests: Full Tempest, Full Rally |
-+----------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+
-| Performance | Out of Functest Scope |
-+----------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+
-| VNF | Test cases related to deploy an open source VNF including |
-| | an orchestrator |
-+----------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+
-
-The main ambiguity could be between features and VNF.
-In fact sometimes you have to spawn VMs to demonstrate the capabilities of the
-feature you introduced.
-We recommend to declare your test in the feature category.
-
-VNF category is really dedicated to test including:
-
- * creation of resources
- * deployement of an orchestrator/VNFM
- * deployment of the VNF
- * test of the VNFM
- * free resources
-
-The goal is not to study a particular feature on the infrastructure but to have
-a whole end to end test of a VNF automatically deployed in CI.
-Moreover VNF are run in weekly jobs (one a week), feature tests are in daily
-jobs and use to get a scenario score.
-
-Where are the logs?
-===================
-
-Functest deals with internal and external testcases. Each testcase can generate
-logs.
-
-Since Colorado we introduce the possibility to push the logs to the artifact.
-A new script (https://git.opnfv.org/releng/tree/utils/push-test-logs.sh) has
-been created for CI.
-
-When called, and assuming that the POD is authorized to push the logs to
-artifacts, the script will push all the results or logs locally stored under
-/home/opnfv/functest/results/.
-
-If the POD is not connected to CI, logs are not pushed.
-But in both cases, logs are stored in /home/opnfv/functest/results in the
-container.
-Projects are encouraged to push their logs here.
-
-Since Colorado it is also easy for feature project to integrate this feature by
-adding the log file as output_file parameter when calling execute_command from
-functest_utils library
-
- ret_val = functest_utils.execute_command(cmd, output_file=log_file)
-
-
-How does Functest deal with VNF onboarding?
-===========================================
-
-VNF onboarding has been introduced in Brahmaputra through the automation of a
-clearwater vIMS deployed thanks to cloudify orchestrator.
-
-This automation has been described at OpenStack summit Barcelona:
-https://youtu.be/Jr4nG74glmY
-
-The goal of Functest consists in testing OPNFV from a functional perspective:
-the NFVI and/or the features developed in OPNFV. Feature test suites are
-provided by the feature project. Functest just simplifies the integration of
-the suite into the CI and gives a consolidated view of the tests per scenario.
-
-Functest does not develop VNFs.
-
-Functest does not test any MANO stack.
-
-OPNFV projects dealing with VNF onboarding
-------------------------------------------
-
-Testing VNF is not the main goal however it gives interesting and realistic
-feedback on OPNFV as a Telco cloud.
-
-Onboarding VNF also allows to test a full stack: orchestrator + VNF.
-
-Functest is VNF and MANO stack agnostic.
-
-An internship has been initiated to reference the Open Source VNF: Intern
-Project Open Source VNF catalog
-
-New projects dealing with orchestrators or VNFs are candidate for Danube.
-
-The 2 projects dealing with orchestration are:
-
- * orchestra (Openbaton)
- * opera (Open-O)
-
-The Models project address various goals for promoting availability and
-convergence of information and/or data models related to NFV service/VNF
-management, as being defined in standards (SDOs) and as developed in open
-source projects.
-
-Functest VNF onboarding
------------------------
-
-In order to simplify VNF onboarding a new abstraction class has been developed
-in Functest.
-
-This class is based on vnf_base and can be described as follow:
-
- +------------+ +--------------+
- | test_base |------------>| vnf_base |
- +------------+ +--------------+
- |_ prepare
- |_ deploy_orchestrator (optional)
- |_ deploy_vnf
- |_ test_vnf
- |_ clean
-
-
-Several methods are declared in vnf_base:
-
- * prepare
- * deploy_orchestrator
- * deploy_vnf
- * test_vnf
- * clean
-
-deploy_vnf and test_vnf are mandatory.
-
-prepare will create a user and a project.
-
-How to declare your orchestrator/VNF?
--------------------------------------
-1) test declaration
-
-You must declare your testcase in the file <Functest repo>/functest/ci/testcases.yaml
-
-2) configuration
-
-You can precise some configuration parameters in config_functest.yaml
-
-3) implement your test
+Reporting
+=========
+A web page is automatically generated every day to display the status based on
+jinja2 templates `[3]`_.
-Create your own VnfOnboarding file
-you must create your entry point through a python clase as referenced in the
-configuration file
+Dashboard
+=========
-e.g. aaa => creation of the file <Functest repo>/functest/opnfv_tests/vnf/aaa/aaa.py
+Additional dashboarding is managed at the testing group level, see `[7]`_ for
+details.
-the class shall inherit vnf_base.
-You must implement the methods deploy_vnf() and test_vnf() and may implement
-deploy_orchestrator()
-you can call the code from your repo (but need to add the repo in Functest if
-it is not the case)
+=======
+How TOs
+=======
-4) success criteria
+See How to section on Functest wiki `[8]`_
-So far we considered the test as PASS if vnf_deploy and test_vnf is PASS
-(see example in aaa).
