The OAI EPC +supports most of the essential functions defined by the 3GPP Technical Specs; +hence the successful execution of functional tests on the OAI EPC provides a +good endorsement of the underlying NFV platform. + +This integration also includes ABot, a Test Orchestration system that enables +test scenarios to be defined in high-level DSL. ABot is also deployed as a +VM on the OPNFV platform; and this provides an example of the automation +driver and the Test VNF being both deployed as separate VNFs on the underlying +OPNFV platform. + +The Workflow is as follows: + * Deploy Orchestrator + Deploy Juju controller using Bootstrap command. + * Deploy VNF + Deploy ABot orchestrator and OAI EPC as Juju charms. + Configuration of ABot and OAI EPC components is handled through + built-in Juju relations. + * Test VNF + Execution of ABot feature files triggered by Juju actions. + This executes a suite of LTE signalling tests on the OAI EPC. + * Reporting + ABot test results are parsed accordingly and pushed to Functest Db. + +Details of the ABot test orchestration tool may be found in `[15]`_ Kubernetes (K8s) ---------------- Kubernetes testing relies on sets of tests, which are part of the Kubernetes -source tree, such as the Kubernetes End-to-End (e2e) tests `[15]`_. +source tree, such as the Kubernetes End-to-End (e2e) tests `[16]`_.
