project. All tests are executed in two node logical test topology - Traffic
Generator (TG) node and Systems Under Test (SUT1) node connected in a loop.

SUT1 is a VM (Ubuntu or Centos, depending on the test suite), TG is a Traffic
Generator (TG, another Ubuntu VM). SUTs run Honeycomb and VPP SW applications
Functional Tests Naming

-|csit-release| introduced a common structured naming convention for all
+CSIT-17.01 introduced a common structured naming convention for all
performance and functional tests. This change was driven by substantially
growing number and type of CSIT test cases. Firstly, the original practice did
not always follow any strict naming convention. Secondly test names did not
