-   - *MRR tests :* New MRR tests measure the packet forwarding rate

-       under the maximum load offered by traffic generator over a set

-       trial duration, regardless of packet loss. Maximum load for

-       specified Ethernet frame size is set to the bi-directional link

-       rate. MRR tests are used for continuous performance trending and

-       for comparison between releases.

-   - *Service Chaining with SRv6 :* SRv6 (Segment Routing IPv6) proxy tests

-       verifying performance of Endpoint to SR-unaware appliance via

-       masquerading (End.AM), dynamic proxy (End.AD) or static proxy (End.AS)

-       functions.

-#. **Presentation and Analytics Layer (PAL)**

+#. **Presentation and Analytics Layer**

 

-     - Added continuous performance measuring, trending and anomaly

-       detection. Includes new PAL code and Jenkins jobs for Performance

-       Trending (PT) and Performance Analysis (PA) producing performance

-       trending dashboard and trendline graphs with summary and drill-

-       down views across all specified tests that can be reviewed and

-       inspected regularly by FD.io developers and users community.

+  - *Performance trending* - Added continuous performance trending and

+    analysis. New Performance Trending and Performance Analysis jobs

+    executed regular throughput tests, with results being subsequently

+    analysed and trend and anomalies summarized and presented in VPP

+    Performance Dashboard and trendline graphs.

 

 #. **Test Framework Optimizations**

 

-     - *Performance tests efficiency :* Qemu build/install

-     optimizations, warmup phase handling, vpp restart handling.

-     Resulted in improved stability and reduced total execution time by

-     30% for single pkt size e.g. 64B/78B.
