VPP PERFORMANCE TESTS - **Service density 2n-skx tests**: Added higher NF density tests with - 802.1q (vlan) and VXLAN encapsulation from Traffic Generator. + IPSec encencryption between DUTs. - - **GBP tests**: Added GBP (Group Based Policy) routing test cases - with 802.1q (vlan) external traffic. - - - **AVF IPv4 scale tests**: Increased coverage of AVF IPv4 base and - scale test cases (Fortville NICs only). - - - **2n-skx tests**: Increased coverage of selected (COP, iACL, - Policer) test cases. - - - **IPsec scale tests**: Added IPsec interface mode scale tests with - 1, 40, 400, 1000, 5000, 10000, 20000, 40000, 60000 IPsec tunnels. - Removed DPDK backend dependency. Major IPsec test code - refactoring. + - **AVF tests**: Full test coveraged based on code changes in CSIT core + layer (driver/interface awareness) and generated by suite generator + (Fortville NICs only). - **Hoststack TCP/IP tests**: Major refactor of Hoststack TCP performance tests using WRK generator talking to the VPP HTTP static server plugin measuring connections per second and requests per second. - - **Changed methodology of dot1q tests in 2-Node testbeds**: dot1q - encapsulation is now used on both links of SUT. Previously dot1q - was used only on a single link with the other link carrying - untagged Ethernet frames. This change results in slightly lower - throughput in CSIT-1908 for all dot1q tests in all 2-Node - testbeds. - - - **KVM VM vhost-user tests**: completed move to Kernel-VM for all - tests. In addition to running DPDK Testpmd as VM workload, new - tests created with VPP as VM workload. VPP in VM is the same - version as the DUT VPP (acting as vSwitch) and its configuration - depends on the test type. For all L2 Ethernet Switching tests - it's vpp-l2xc (L2 cross-connect), for all IPv4 Routing tests it's - vpp-ip4 (VPP IPv4 routing). - #. TEST FRAMEWORK + - **CSIT Python3 Support**: Full migration of CSIT from Python2.7 to + Python3.6. This change includes library migration, PIP dependency upgrade, + CSIT container images, infrastructure packages ugrade/installation. + - **CSIT PAPI Support**: Finished conversion of CSIT VAT L1 keywords to PAPI L1 KWs in CSIT using VPP Python bindings (VPP PAPI).
