In Guilin release, we completed all the TSC must have requirements related to S3P. Along with additional requirements to improve the platform like returning non-zero exit codes in case of errors, ability for logging to STDOUT, certificate handling, improved health check etc. To strive for best quality deliverables, we have been always on top of sonar issues and maintaining above 80% code coverage. With some repos as high as 95% coverage. We were also approved as “Mature” project in ONAP after proposal being reviewed by respective committees and TSC. In terms of maintaining S3P work release over release, we have a very good structure in place to keep track of test artifacts, documenting the test plan, executing the actual tests & finally documenting the results.
