Scratch pad for Dublin planning.  Add unprioritized backlog items and user stories here. We will discuss collectively during VNFSDK team meetings.

Release 4 Mission:



Highlights:

  • Enhance VNF Testing and integrate VVP  in LFN CVC

    • Done, VTP already support the Python script execution and the VVP integration is available.

  • Support PNF Onboarding/Pre-Onboarding (for 5G Use Case)?

    • Partially Done.

  • Refine VNF Test Platform(VTP)

    • Execution Scenario Management (including exposing the corresponding API)

  • Incorporate vnfreqs testable requirements. Partially Done. currently, we implement 36 test requirements in VNFSDK about compliance testing.

    • move test case from pkgtools to validation and implemented by java.

      • Done.

  • Support SDC on boarding tests (maybe allow SDC to replace refrepo portal, but use vnfmarket-be for their own onboarding test engine

    • Done. When VSP is onboarding to SDC, SDC could trigger VTP to execute the test cases.

  • Package data model enhancements (internal and onboarding models?)

    • Not.

  • SOL-004 Option2 Support

    • Done.

User Stories

  • Use VNFSDK for LFN Compliance testing (package syntax testing)

  • The operator uses VNFSDK for vendor engagement/acceptance testing (includes onboarding testing and/or operator-developed tests)

    • LFN onboard OVP on ONS NA April.

  • 3rd party lab uses VNFSDK for extended VNF testing (may include functional, non-functional, and/or  performance testing - tests developed by 3rd party labs)

Backlog Items

  1. Accept multiple models →translation to ONAP model

  2. Enhancements to meet use cases?



Other potential considerations? (from Casablanca)

  • PNF onboarding support

  • generic netconf server module for VNFs?

  • K8s VNFs?

  • HEAT→TOSCA migration tool?

  • Image management/distribution (image upload to deploy VNFs)

    • quarantine area

    • separate from what happens after onboarding

    • includes model changes

    • encryption?

  • Data model changes (boot disk, HPA format clarification, (deployment flavor support))

  • Security (discuss with SEC and ARC)

  • Support ONAP extensions in VNF descriptor
