+
+Important Notes
+===============
+
+The software delivered in the OPNFV Yardstick_ Project, comprising the
+*Yardstick framework*, the *Yardstick test cases* and the experimental
+framework *Apex Lake* is a realization of the methodology in ETSI-ISG
+NFV-TST001_.
+
+The *Yardstick* framework is *installer*, *infrastructure* and *application*
+independent.
+
+
+Summary
+=======
+
+This Brahmaputra release provides *Yardstick* as a framework for NFVI testing
+and OPNFV feature testing, automated in the OPNFV CI pipeline, including:
+
+* Documentation generated with Sphinx
+
+ * User Guide
+
+ * Code Documentation
+
+ * Release notes (this document)
+
+ * Results
+
+* Automated Yardstick test suite (daily, weekly)
+
+ * Jenkins Jobs for OPNFV community labs
+
+* Automated Yardstick test results visualization
+
+ * Dashboard_ using Grafana (user:opnfv/password: opnfv), influxDB used as
+ backend
+
+* Yardstick framework source code
+
+* Yardstick test cases yaml files
+
+For Brahmaputra release, the *Yardstick framework* is used for the following
+testing:
+
+* OPNFV platform testing - generic test cases to measure the categories:
+
+ * Compute
+
+ * Network
+
+ * Storage
+
+* Test cases for the following OPNFV Projects:
+
+ * High Availability
+
+ * IPv6
+
+ * KVM
+
+ * Parser
+
+The *Yardstick framework* is developed in the OPNFV community, by the
+Yardstick_ team.
+
+.. note:: The test case description template used for the Yardstick test cases
+ is based on the document ETSI-ISG NFV-TST001_; the results report template
+ used for the Yardstick results is based on the IEEE Std 829-2008.
