+|metric | RTT (Round Trip Time) |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|test purpose | The purpose of TC080 is to do a basic verification that |
+| | network latency is within acceptable boundaries when packets |
+| | travel between containers located in two different |
+| | Kubernetes pods. |
+| | |
+| | The purpose is also to be able to spot the trends. |
+| | Test results, graphs and similar shall be stored for |
+| | comparison reasons and product evolution understanding |
+| | between different OPNFV versions and/or configurations. |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|test tool | ping |
+| | |
+| | Ping is a computer network administration software utility |
+| | used to test the reachability of a host on an Internet |
+| | Protocol (IP) network. It measures the round-trip time for |
+| | packet sent from the originating host to a destination |
+| | computer that are echoed back to the source. |
+| | |
+| | Ping is normally part of any Linux distribution, hence it |
+| | doesn't need to be installed. It is also part of the |
+| | Yardstick Docker image. |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|test topology | Ping packets (ICMP protocol's mandatory ECHO_REQUEST |
+| | datagram) are sent from host container to target container |
+| | to elicit ICMP ECHO_RESPONSE. |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|configuration | file: opnfv_yardstick_tc080.yaml |
+| | |
+| | Packet size 200 bytes. Test duration 60 seconds. |
+| | SLA RTT is set to maximum 10 ms. |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|applicability | This test case can be configured with different: |
+| | |
+| | * packet sizes; |
+| | * burst sizes; |
+| | * ping intervals; |
+| | * test durations; |
+| | * test iterations. |
+| | |
+| | Default values exist. |
+| | |
+| | SLA is optional. The SLA in this test case serves as an |
+| | example. Considerably lower RTT is expected, and also normal |
+| | to achieve in balanced L2 environments. However, to cover |
+| | most configurations, both bare metal and fully virtualized |
+| | ones, this value should be possible to achieve and |
+| | acceptable for black box testing. Many real time |
+| | applications start to suffer badly if the RTT time is higher |
+| | than this. Some may suffer bad also close to this RTT, while |
+| | others may not suffer at all. It is a compromise that may |
+| | have to be tuned for different configuration purposes. |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|usability | This test case should be run in Kunernetes environment. |
+| | |

+|pre-test | The test case Docker image (openretriever/yardstick) needs |
+|conditions | to be pulled into Kubernetes environment. |
+| | |
+| | No further requirements have been identified. |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|test sequence | description and expected result |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|step 1 | Two containers are booted, as server and client. |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|step 2 | Yardstick is connected with the server container by using |
+| | ssh. 'ping_benchmark' bash script is copied from Jump Host |
+| | to the server container via the ssh tunnel. |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|step 3 | Ping is invoked. Ping packets are sent from server container |
+| | to client container. RTT results are calculated and checked |
+| | against the SLA. Logs are produced and stored. |
+| | |
+| | Result: Logs are stored. |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|step 4 | Two containers are deleted. |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|test verdict | Test should not PASS if any RTT is above the optional SLA |
+| | value, or if there is a test case execution problem. |
+| | |
