4 This is the **F**\ast **D**\ata **I**/**O** Project (**FD.io**) **C**\ontinuous
5 **S**\ystem **I**\ntegration and **T**\esting (**CSIT**) project report for CSIT
6 |release| system testing of |vpp-release|.
8 The report describes CSIT functional and performance tests and their
9 continuous execution delivered in CSIT |release|. A high-level overview is
10 provided for each CSIT test environment running in Linux Foundation (LF) FD.io
11 Continuous Performance Labs. This is followed by summary of all executed tests
12 against the |vpp-release| and associated FD.io projects and sub-systems
13 (HoneyComb, DPDK, NSH_SFC), CSIT |release| release notes, result highlights and
14 known issues discovered in CSIT. More detailed description of each environment,
15 pointers to CSIT test code documentation and detailed test resuls with links to
16 the source data files are also provided.
