+   - *MRR tests :* New MRR tests measure the packet forwarding rate
        under the maximum load offered by traffic generator over a set
        trial duration, regardless of packet loss. Maximum load for
        specified Ethernet frame size is set to the bi-directional link
        rate. MRR tests are used for continuous performance trending and
        for comparison between releases.

+Throughput Trending
+-------------------
+
+In addition to reporting throughput changes between VPP releases, CSIT provides
+continuous performance trending for VPP master branch:
+
+#. `VPP Performance Dashboard <https://docs.fd.io/csit/master/trending/introduction/index.html>`_
+- per VPP test case throughput trend, trend compliance and summary of detected
+anomalies.
+
+#. `Trending Methodology <https://docs.fd.io/csit/master/trending/methodology/index.html>`_
+- throughput test metrics, trend calculations and anomaly classification
+(progression, regression, outlier).
+
+#. `Trendline Graphs <https://docs.fd.io/csit/master/trending/trending/index.html>`_
+- per VPP build MRR throughput measurements against the trendline with anomaly
+highlights, with associated CSIT test jobs.
