Overview
========
.. note::
This section includes an abbreviated version of the VPP Test Framework
overview maintained within the VPP project. Complete overview can be found
in `VPP unit test documentation <link>`_
VPP Unit Test Framework
-----------------------
VPP Test Framework is used to ease writing, running and debugging unit tests
for the VPP. It is based on python as a high level language to allow rapid
test development. scapy\_ is used as a tool for creating and dissecting
packets.
VPP Test Framework does not send any packets to VPP directly. Traffic is
instead injected using VPP packet-generator interfaces. Packets are written
into a temporary .pcap file, which is then read by the VPP code with packets
getting injected into the VPP processing nodes.
Similarly, VPP does not send any packets to VPP Test Framework directly.
Instead, VPP packet capture feature is used to capture and write packets to a
temporary .pcap file, which is then read and analyzed by the VPP Test
Framework.
For complete description of the VPP Test Framework including anatomy of a test
case and detailed documentation of existing VPP unit test cases please refer
to the `VPP unit test documentation <link>`_
Unit Tests Coverage
