#. VPP PERFORMANCE TESTS
- - **Service density 2n-skx tests**: Added higher density tests with dtc=0.5
- (2 NF each with 1 DT per physical core) with VPP as a VNF payload.
+ - **Service density 2n-skx tests**: Added higher NF density tests with
+ 802.1q (vlan) and 802.1ad (vxlan) encapsulation from Traffic Generator.
- - **Experimental Soak Tests**: Added performamce soak tests framework
- code for extended time duration tests and throughput discovery
- at given PLR and at give total test time e.g. minutes, hours,
- days, weeks, months, years. See updated
- :ref:`test_methodology` section for more details.
+ - **GBP tests**: Added GBP routing test cases with 802.1q (vlan) external
+ traffic.
-#. TEST FRAMEWORK
+ - **AVF IPv4 scale tests**: Increased coverage of AVF IPv4 base and scale
+ test cases.
- - **Qemu code refactor**: Complete code refactor of the key components
- QemuUtil.py and QemuManager.py (L1 and L2 KW counterparts). Added
- implementation of kernel-image-kvm based VM alongisde the previously used
- NestedVM images. Added ability to run VPP as a payload in VNF.
+ - **2n-skx tests**: Increased coverage of selected (COP, iACL, Policer)
+ test cases.
- - **CSIT PAPI Support**: Continue converting existing VAT L1 keywords to
- PAPI L1 KWs in CSIT using VPP Python bindings. Required for migrating away
- from VAT. Redesign of key components of PAPI Executor and PAPI history.
+ - **IPsec scale tests**: Added IPsec interface mode scale tests with
+ 1, 40, 400, 1000, 5000, 10000, 20000, 40000, 60000 tunnels. Removed DPDK
+ backend dependency.
- - **General Code Housekeeping**: Ongoing RF keywords optimizations,
- removal of redundant RF keywords.
+#. TEST FRAMEWORK
- - **Test suite generator**: Extend the test suite generator for ability to
- generate NIC permutation and search algorithm permutations from base
- suites.
+ - **CSIT PAPI Support**: Finished conversion of CSIT VAT L1 keywords to
+ PAPI L1 KWs in CSIT using VPP Python bindings. Redesign of key components
+ of PAPI Executor and PAPI history. Currently the only exception is
+ usage of VAT command for scale configuration.
+
+ - **General Code Housekeeping**: Ongoing RF keywords optimizations,
+ removal of redundant RF keywords and aligning of suite/test
+ setup/teardowns.
- - **TOX verification**: Added verifications for test suite generator.

-#. MISCELLANEOUS
-
- - **2n-dnv Tests (3rd Party)**: Published performance tests for 2n-
- dnv (2-Node Atom Denverton) from 3rd party testbeds running FD.io
- |csit-release| automated testing code.
- Only graphs for Packet Throughput and Speedup Multi-core and not
- for Packet Latency were published as there are no results for Packet
- Latency available.
