 #. **DPDK performance tests**
 
-   - *MRR tests* - Maximum Receive Rate tests measure the packet forwarding rate
-     under the maximum load offered by traffic generator over a set trial
-     duration, regardless of packet loss. MRR tests are used for continuous
-     performance trending and for comparison between releases.
+  - **MRR Throughput**: MRR (Maximum Receive Rate) test code has now
+    configurable trial duration and number of consecutive executions.
+    Coverage of MRR tests has been extended across more test
+    scenarios. MRR tests are used for continuous performance trending
+    and for comparison between DPDK releases.
 
-   - *MLR tests* - NDR and PDR tests measure the packet forwarding rate using
-     MLRsearch library by traffic generator. All tests that previously used
-     binary search were converted to MLRsearch.
+  - **MLRsearch Throughput**: MLRsearch algorithm has been introduced
+    for all NDR and PDR throughput tests. All tests that previously
+    used binary search got converted to MLRsearch. Coverage of NDR/PDR
+    tests has been extended across more test scenarios.
 
-   - *2-node tests* - Set of 2-node tests covering testpmd and l3fwd.
+  - **2-Node Tests**: A new set of 2-node tests covering DPDK Testpmd
+    and L3fwd, running on new Xeon Skylake testbeds.
 
-   - Increased coverage of NIC specific tests (Intel-xxv710-da2, Intel-x710)
+  - **More NICs**: Increased coverage of NIC models tested: Intel-
+    xxv710-da2, Intel-x710-da4.
 
-   - *Generated tests* - Simplified and unified test structure,
-     semi-autogenerated by generator script. Test generator is currently able
-     to create test combinations with various frame size and cores combinations.
