Changes in |csit-release|
-------------------------
-#. CSIT FRAMEWORK
+#. TEST FRAMEWORK
- - Few test case bug fixes.
+ - **VPP_Device**: Added container based functional VPP device tests
+ integrated into LFN CI/CD infrastructure. VPP_Device tests run on
+ 1-Node testbeds (1n-skx, 1n-arm) and rely on Linux SRIOV Virtual
+ Function (VF), dot1q VLAN tagging and external loopback cables to
+ facilitate packet passing over exernal physical links. Initial
+ focus is on few baseline tests. Existing CSIT VIRL tests can be
+ moved to VPP_Device framework by changing L1 KW(s). L2 KWs and RF
+ test definition code stay unchanged. CSIT VIRL to VPP_Device
+ migration is expected in the next CSIT release.
-#. TEST CASE PORTING TO VPP_MAKE_TEST
+ - **Bug fixes**.
- - Implementation of VIRL functional integration tests in
- VPP_make_test.
+#. CSIT TEST MIMGRATION
- - All VIRL tests identified as Priority-0 by FD.io VPP and CSIT
- projects have been ported to VPP_make_test. Detailed breakdown in
- `CSIT_VIRL migration progress
- <https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1PciV8XN9v1qHbIRUpFJoqyES29_vik7lcFDl73G1usc/edit?usp=sharing>`_.
+ - **VPP_Path**: Continuing migration of the original FD.io CSIT VIRL
+ tests to VPP-make_test VPP integration tests for functional
+ acceptance of VPP feature path(s) driven by use case(s). See P1
+ and P2 markup in `CSIT_VIRL migration progress
+ <https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1PciV8XN9v1qHbIRUpFJoqyES29_vik7lcFDl73G1usc/edit?usp=sharing>`_
