2016-08-03pkt_gen: MoonGen start rates not correctbmichalo1-0/+2
The VSPERF traffic profile for starting rate is in a percentage of line rate. MoonGen programs its starting rate as Mpps. Therefore the traffic profile for VSPERF needs to be converted to a MoonGen format. There was a hardcoding of 14.88 that was used for the starting frame rate for all frame sizes. This needs to be corrected to take into account all frame sizes. JIRA: VSPERF-350 Change-Id: Ied71668a560d7d2b03483f9a1192dd2fb4965996 Signed-off-by: bmichalo <bmichalo@redhat.com>

Generic support for integration testcases with first set of tests for vswitch testing. New test option "TestSteps" has been introduced to define test step by step directly in configuration file. In case that this concept will be accepted, there are plenty of possibilities for future improvements.
