The main list of test cases is available at E2E Network Slicing Use Case in R7 Guilin.

Important Note: Status update of test cases, prioritization and scenario-based reduction in testing scope is in progress. Majority of Priority 1

Venue: CMCC Lab

...

test cases alone will be targeted to be completed for Guilin. This page will be updated in the next few days with the proper status of completed/ongoing tests (the parts which are completed), and other relevant details.

Remark: We will continue to update the status as we continue the testing of various e2e scenario combinations, along with the P2 test cases beyond Guilin. Bugs found (if any) from now onwards will be solved in Honolulu.

Important Note: Status update of test cases, prioritization and scenario-based reduction in testing scope is in progress. Majority of Priority 1

test cases alone will be targeted to be completed for Guilin. This page will be updated in the next few days with the proper status of completed/ongoing tests (the parts which are completed), and other relevant details.

Remark: We will continue to update the status as we continue the testing of various e2e scenario combinations, along with the P2 test cases beyond Guilin. Bugs found (if any) from now onwards will be solved in Honolulu.
