+VIM (Virtualized Infrastructure Manager)
+----------------------------------------
+
+Healthcheck tests
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+In Danube, healthcheck tests have been refactored and rely on SNAPS, an
+OPNFV middleware project.
+
+SNAPS stands for "SDN/NFV Application development Platform and Stack".
+SNAPS is an object-oriented OpenStack library packaged with tests that exercise
+OpenStack.
+More information on SNAPS can be found in  `[13]`_
+
+Three tests are declared as healthcheck tests and can be used for gating by the
+installer, they cover functionally the tests previously done by healthcheck
+test case.
+
+The tests are:
+
+
+ * *connection_check*
+ * *api_check*
+ * *snaps_health_check*
+
+Connection_check consists in 9 test cases (test duration < 5s) checking the
+connectivity with Glance, Keystone, Neutron, Nova and the external network.
+
+Api_check verifies the retrieval of OpenStack clients: Keystone, Glance,
+Neutron and Nova and may perform some simple queries. When the config value of
+snaps.use_keystone is True, functest must have access to the cloud's private
+network. This suite consists in 49 tests (test duration < 2 minutes).
+
+snaps_health_check creates instance, allocate floating IP, connect to the VM.
+This test replaced the previous Colorado healthcheck test.
+
+Self-obviously, successful completion of the 'healthcheck' testcase is a
+necessary pre-requisite for the execution of all other test Tiers.
+
+
+vPing_ssh
+^^^^^^^^^
+
+Given the script **ping.sh**::
+
+    #!/bin/sh
+    ping -c 1 $1 2>&1 >/dev/null
+    RES=$?
+    if [ "Z$RES" = "Z0" ] ; then
+        echo 'vPing OK'
+    else
+        echo 'vPing KO'
+    fi
+
+
+The goal of this test is to establish an SSH connection using a floating IP
+on the Public/External network and verify that 2 instances can talk over a Private
+Tenant network::
+

+ +-------------+                    +-------------+
+
+This test can be considered as an "Hello World" example.
+It is the first basic use case which **must** work on any deployment.
+
+vPing_userdata
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This test case is similar to vPing_ssh but without the use of Floating IPs
+and the Public/External network to transfer the ping script.
+Instead, it uses Nova metadata service to pass it to the instance at booting time.
+As vPing_ssh, it checks that 2 instances can talk to
+each other on a Private Tenant network::

+ +-------------+                    +-------------+
+
+When the second VM boots it will execute the script passed as userdata
+automatically. The ping will be detected by periodically capturing the output
+in the console-log of the second VM.
+
+
+Tempest
+^^^^^^^
+
+Tempest `[2]`_ is the reference OpenStack Integration test suite.
+It is a set of integration tests to be run against a live OpenStack cluster.
+Tempest has suites of tests for:
+
+  * OpenStack API validation
+  * Scenarios
+  * Other specific tests useful in validating an OpenStack deployment
+
+Functest uses Rally `[3]`_ to run the Tempest suite.
+Rally generates automatically the Tempest configuration file **tempest.conf**.
+Before running the actual test cases,
+Functest creates the needed resources (user, tenant) and
+updates the appropriate parameters into the configuration file.
+
+When the Tempest suite is executed, each test duration is measured and the full
+console output is stored to a *log* file for further analysis.
+
+The Tempest testcases are distributed across two
+Tiers:
+
+  * Smoke Tier - Test Case 'tempest_smoke_serial'
+  * Components Tier - Test case 'tempest_full_parallel'
+
+NOTE: Test case 'tempest_smoke_serial' executes a defined set of tempest smoke
+tests with a single thread (i.e. serial mode). Test case 'tempest_full_parallel'
+executes all defined Tempest tests using several concurrent threads
+(i.e. parallel mode). The number of threads activated corresponds to the number
+of available logical CPUs.
+
+The goal of the Tempest test suite is to check the basic functionalities of the
+different OpenStack components on an OPNFV fresh installation, using the
+corresponding REST API interfaces.
+
+
+Rally bench test suites
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Rally `[3]`_ is a benchmarking tool that answers the question:
+
+*How does OpenStack work at scale?*
+
+The goal of this test suite is to benchmark all the different OpenStack modules and
+get significant figures that could help to define Telco Cloud KPIs.
+
+The OPNFV Rally scenarios are based on the collection of the actual Rally scenarios:
+
+ * authenticate
+ * cinder
+ * glance
+ * heat
+ * keystone
+ * neutron
+ * nova
+ * quotas
+
+A basic SLA (stop test on errors) has been implemented.
+
+The Rally testcases are distributed across two Tiers:
+
+  * Smoke Tier - Test Case 'rally_sanity'
+  * Components Tier - Test case 'rally_full'
+
+NOTE: Test case 'rally_sanity' executes a limited number of Rally smoke test
+cases. Test case 'rally_full' executes the full defined set of Rally tests.
+
+
+Refstack-client to run Defcore testcases
+-----------------------------------------
+
+Refstack-client `[8]`_ is a command line utility that allows you to
+execute Tempest test runs based on configurations you specify.
+It is the official tool to run Defcore `[9]`_ testcases,
+which focuses on testing interoperability between OpenStack clouds.
+
+Refstack-client is integrated in Functest, consumed by Dovetail, which
+intends to define and provide a set of OPNFV related validation criteria
+that will provide input for the evaluation of the use of OPNFV trademarks.
+This progress is under the guideline of Compliance Verification Program(CVP).
+
+Defcore testcases
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+*Danube Release*
+
+Set of DefCore tempest test cases not flagged and required.
+According to `[10]`_, some tests are still flagged due to outstanding bugs
+in the Tempest library, particularly tests that require SSH. Refstack developers
+are working on correcting these bugs upstream. Please note that although some tests
+are flagged because of bugs, there is still an expectation that the capabilities
+covered by the tests are available. It only contains Openstack core compute
+(no object storage). The approved guidelines (2016.08) are valid for Kilo,
+Liberty, Mitaka and Newton releases of OpenStack.
+The list can be generated using the Rest API from RefStack project:
+https://refstack.openstack.org/api/v1/guidelines/2016.08/tests?target=compute&type=required&alias=true&flag=false
+
+Running methods
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Two running methods are provided after refstack-client integrated into
+Functest, Functest command line and manually, respectively.
+
+By default, for Defcore test cases run by Functest command line,
+are run followed with automatically generated
+configuration file, i.e., refstack_tempest.conf. In some circumstances,
+the automatic configuration file may not quite satisfied with the SUT,
+Functest also inherits the refstack-client command line and provides a way
+for users to set its configuration file according to its own SUT manually.
+
+*command line*
+
+Inside the Functest container, first to prepare Functest environment:
+
+::
+
+  functest env prepare
+
+then to run default defcore testcases by using refstack-client:
+
+::
+
+  functest testcase run refstack_defcore
+
+In OPNFV Continuous Integration(CI) system, the command line method is used.
+
+*manually*
+
+Prepare the tempest configuration file and the testcases want to run with the SUT,
+run the testcases with:
+
+::
+
+  ./refstack-client test -c <Path of the tempest configuration file to use> -v --test-list <Path or URL of test list>
+
+using help for more information:
+
+::
+
+  ./refstack-client --help
+  ./refstack-client test --help
+
+Reference tempest configuration
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+*command line method*
+
+When command line method is used, the default tempest configuration file
+is generated by Rally.
+
+*manually*
+
+When running manually is used, recommended way to generate tempest configuration
+file is:
+
+::
+
+  cd /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/functest/opnfv_tests/openstack/refstack_client
+  python tempest_conf.py
+
+a file called tempest.conf is stored in the current path by default, users can do
+some adjustment according to the SUT:
+
+::
+
+  vim refstack_tempest.conf
+
+a reference article can be used `[15]`_.
+
+
+snaps_smoke
+------------
+
+This test case contains tests that setup and destroy environments with VMs with
+and without Floating IPs with a newly created user and project. Set the config
+value snaps.use_floating_ips (True|False) to toggle this functionality. When
+the config value of snaps.use_keystone is True, Functest must have access
+the cloud's private network.
+This suite consists in 38 tests (test duration < 10 minutes)
+
+
+SDN Controllers
+---------------
+
+There are currently 3 available controllers:
+
+ * OpenDaylight (ODL)
+ * ONOS
+ * OpenContrail (OCL)
+
+OpenDaylight
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The OpenDaylight (ODL) test suite consists of a set of basic tests inherited
+from the ODL project using the Robot `[11]`_ framework.
+The suite verifies creation and deletion of networks, subnets and ports with
+OpenDaylight and Neutron.
+
+The list of tests can be described as follows:
+
+ * Basic Restconf test cases
+   * Connect to Restconf URL
+   * Check the HTTP code status
+
+ * Neutron Reachability test cases
+   * Get the complete list of neutron resources (networks, subnets, ports)
+
+ * Neutron Network test cases
+   * Check OpenStack networks
+   * Check OpenDaylight networks
+   * Create a new network via OpenStack and check the HTTP status code returned by Neutron
+   * Check that the network has also been successfully created in OpenDaylight
+
+ * Neutron Subnet test cases
+   * Check OpenStack subnets
+   * Check OpenDaylight subnets
+   * Create a new subnet via OpenStack and check the HTTP status code returned by Neutron
+   * Check that the subnet has also been successfully created in OpenDaylight
+
+ * Neutron Port test cases
+   * Check OpenStack Neutron for known ports
+   * Check OpenDaylight ports
+   * Create a new port via OpenStack and check the HTTP status code returned by Neutron
+   * Check that the new port has also been successfully created in OpenDaylight
+
+ * Delete operations
+   * Delete the port previously created via OpenStack
+   * Check that the port has been also successfully deleted in OpenDaylight
+   * Delete previously subnet created via OpenStack
+   * Check that the subnet has also been successfully deleted in OpenDaylight
+   * Delete the network created via OpenStack
+   * Check that the network has also been successfully deleted in OpenDaylight
+
+Note: the checks in OpenDaylight are based on the returned HTTP status
+code returned by OpenDaylight.
+
+
+ONOS
+^^^^
+
+TestON Framework is used to test the ONOS SDN controller functions.
+The test cases deal with L2 and L3 functions.
+The ONOS test suite can be run on any ONOS compliant scenario.
+
+The test cases are described as follows:
+
+ * onosfunctest: The main executable file contains the initialization of
+   the docker environment and functions called by FUNCvirNetNB and
+   FUNCvirNetNBL3
+
+ * FUNCvirNetNB
+
+   * Create Network: Post Network data and check it in ONOS

+VNF
+---
+
+
+cloudify_ims
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+The IP Multimedia Subsystem or IP Multimedia Core Network Subsystem (IMS) is an
+architectural framework for delivering IP multimedia services.
+
+vIMS has been integrated in Functest to demonstrate the capability to deploy a
+relatively complex NFV scenario on the OPNFV platform. The deployment of a complete
+functional VNF allows the test of most of the essential functions needed for a
+NFV platform.
+
+The goal of this test suite consists of:
+
+ * deploy a VNF orchestrator (Cloudify)
+ * deploy a Clearwater vIMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) VNF from this
+   orchestrator based on a TOSCA blueprint defined in `[5]`_
+ * run suite of signaling tests on top of this VNF
+
+The Clearwater architecture is described as follows:
+
+.. figure:: ../../../images/clearwater-architecture.png
+   :align: center
+   :alt: vIMS architecture
+
+orchestra_openims
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+Orchestra test case deals with the deployment of OpenIMS with OpenBaton
+orchestrator.
+
+orchestra_clearwaterims
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+Orchestra test case deals with the deployment of Clearwater vIMS with OpenBaton
+orchestrator.
+
+parser
+^^^^^^

+See parser user guide for details: `[12]`_
+
+
+vyos-vrouter
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This test case deals with the deployment and the test of vyos vrouter with
+Cloudify orchestrator. The test case can do testing for interchangeability of
+BGP Protocol using vyos.
+
+The Workflow is as follows:
+ * Deploy
