Functional Tests Naming ----------------------- -CSIT |release| introduced a common structured naming convention for all -performance and functional tests. This change was driven by substantially -growing number and type of CSIT test cases. Firstly, the original practice did -not always follow any strict naming convention. Secondly test names did not -always clearly capture tested packet encapsulations, and the actual type or -content of the tests. Thirdly HW configurations in terms of NICs, ports and -their locality were not captured either. These were but few reasons that drove -the decision to change and define a new more complete and stricter test naming -convention, and to apply this to all existing and new test cases. - -The new naming should be intuitive for majority of the tests. The complete -description of CSIT test naming convention is provided on `CSIT test naming -page `_. - -Here few illustrative examples of the new naming usage for functional test -suites: - -#. **Physical port to physical port - a.k.a. NIC-to-NIC, Phy-to-Phy, P2P** - - - *eth2p-ethip4-ip4base-func.robot* => 2 ports of Ethernet, IPv4 baseline - routed forwarding, functional tests. - -#. **Physical port to VM (or VM chain) to physical port - a.k.a.
