#. VPP PERFORMANCE TESTS
- **Service density 2n-skx tests**: Added higher NF density tests with
- 802.1q (vlan) and VXLAN encapsulation from Traffic Generator.
+ IPSec encencryption between DUTs.
- - **GBP tests**: Added GBP (Group Based Policy) routing test cases
- with 802.1q (vlan) external traffic.
-
- - **AVF IPv4 scale tests**: Increased coverage of AVF IPv4 base and
- scale test cases (Fortville NICs only).
-
- - **2n-skx tests**: Increased coverage of selected (COP, iACL,
- Policer) test cases.
-
- - **IPsec scale tests**: Added IPsec interface mode scale tests with
- 1, 40, 400, 1000, 5000, 10000, 20000, 40000, 60000 IPsec tunnels.
- Removed DPDK backend dependency. Major IPsec test code
- refactoring.
+ - **AVF tests**: Full test coveraged based on code changes in CSIT core
+ layer (driver/interface awareness) and generated by suite generator
+ (Fortville NICs only).
- **Hoststack TCP/IP tests**: Major refactor of Hoststack TCP
performance tests using WRK generator talking to the VPP HTTP
static server plugin measuring connections per second and
requests per second.
- - **Changed methodology of dot1q tests in 2-Node testbeds**: dot1q
- encapsulation is now used on both links of SUT. Previously dot1q
- was used only on a single link with the other link carrying
- untagged Ethernet frames. This change results in slightly lower
- throughput in CSIT-1908 for all dot1q tests in all 2-Node
- testbeds.
-
- - **KVM VM vhost-user tests**: completed move to Kernel-VM for all
- tests. In addition to running DPDK Testpmd as VM workload, new
- tests created with VPP as VM workload. VPP in VM is the same
- version as the DUT VPP (acting as vSwitch) and its configuration
- depends on the test type. For all L2 Ethernet Switching tests
- it's vpp-l2xc (L2 cross-connect), for all IPv4 Routing tests it's
- vpp-ip4 (VPP IPv4 routing).
-
#. TEST FRAMEWORK
+ - **CSIT Python3 Support**: Full migration of CSIT from Python2.7 to
+ Python3.6. This change includes library migration, PIP dependency upgrade,
+ CSIT container images, infrastructure packages ugrade/installation.
+
- **CSIT PAPI Support**: Finished conversion of CSIT VAT L1 keywords
to PAPI L1 KWs in CSIT using VPP Python bindings (VPP PAPI).
Redesign of key components of PAPI Socket Executor and PAPI
