Overview ======== This is the **F**\ast **D**\ata **I**/**O** Project (**FD.io**) **C**\ontinuous **S**\ystem **I**\ntegration and **T**\esting (**CSIT**) project report for CSIT |release| system testing of |vpp-release|. This is the full html version, there is also a reduced `PDF version of this report`_. The report describes CSIT functional and performance tests and their continuous execution delivered in CSIT |release|. A high-level overview is provided for each CSIT test environment running in :abbr:`LF (Linux Foundation)` FD.io Continuous Performance Labs. This is followed by summary of all executed tests against the |vpp-release| and associated FD.io projects and sub-systems (Honeycomb, DPDK, NSH_SFC), CSIT |release| release notes, result highlights and known issues discovered in CSIT. More detailed description of each environment, pointers to CSIT test code documentation and detailed test resuls with links to the source data files are also provided.
