VPP PERFORMANCE TESTS - - - **Intel Xeon Ice Lake**: Performance test data for these platforms - continues to be provided by external Intel benchmarking labs - executing |csit-release| tests. For details about the physical - setup see :ref:`tested_physical_topologies`. - - - **AWS EC2 c5n**: Performance test data for AWS c5n instances has - been added to report for ip4, ip6 and ipsec tests. - - - **Reduction of tests**: Removed certain test variations executed - iteratively for the report (as well as in daily and weekly - trending) due to physical testbeds overload. - -#. TEST FRAMEWORK - - - **CSIT test environment** version has been updated to ver. 8, see - :ref:`test_environment_versioning`. - - - **CSIT in AWS environment**: Completed CSIT automation support for - AWS c5n instances environment, including weekly performance - trending tests execution. - - - **CSIT PAPI support**: Due to issues with PAPI performance, and - deprecation of VAT, CLI is used in CSIT for many VPP scale tests. - See known issues below. - - - **General Code Housekeeping**: Ongoing code optimizations and bug - fixes. - -#.
