Jira reference: REQ-635: Integration Test of Close Loop in E2E Network Slicing Use CaseDone
Test lab: CMCC Lab for CL_01 - CL_04, and Winlab for CL_05 - CL_18
Summary: Except for some minor aspects on SDN-R ↔ RAN-Sim interface (most likely fix is required in RAN-Sim), all other aspects are tested.

Italics - Regression test cases
Note: This includes test cases for KPI Computation (used for KPI Monitoring), Closed Loop and ML-based Closed Loop (Intelligent Slicing) features.
S. No. | Topic | Test Case Description | Priority | Dependency/Issue | Tester | Status | Remarks |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
CL_01 | KPI Computation | Creation of suitable policies for KPI computation - formulas, PM data items, etc. | 1 | @LUKAI | COMPLETED | ||
CL_02 | KPI Computation | KPI computation MS fetches of relevant policies: Formulas and PM data items by KPI Computation MS | 1 | @LUKAI | Completed | ||
CL_03 | KPI Computation | KPI Computation MS fetches PM data from DMaaP (posted by PM Mapper). Note: For this test case, we should have a simulator that sends PM data based on which PM Mapper then posts on DMaaP, alternatively, PM Mapper output should be manually posted (simulated) on DMaaP. | 1 | @LUKAI | Completed | ||
CL_04 | KPI Computation | KPI Computation MS computes KPIs and posts the results on DMaaP | 1 | @LUKAI | COMPLETED | ||
CL_05 | Closed Loop | RAN-Sim sends PM data fileReadyNotification to VES-Collector for RAN PM data | 1 | To be checked | @Niranjana Y | completed | |
CL_06 | Closed Loop | DataFileCollector reads the VES notification, fetches the PM xml file from RAN Simulator (SFTP) and posts in data router | 1 | @Niranjana Y | completed | ||
CL_07 | Closed Loop | PM Mapper reads the PM file from data router, generates PM events and posts in message router | 1 | @Niranjana Y | completed | ||
CL_08 | Closed Loop | Slice Analysis MS triggers Control Loop action towards Policy for throughput update at Near-RT RIC level based on analysis of DL/UL PRB used for data traffic for each S-NSSAI | 1 | @Ahila P | Completed | ||
CL_09 | Closed Loop | Upon reception of CL action from Slice Analysis MS, Policy triggers SO (RAN NSSMF) for reconfiguration of RAN resources. | 1 | To be checked | @Ahila P | COMPLETED | |
CL_10 | Closed Loop | Upon CL trigger from Policy, SO (RAN NSSMF) triggers SDN-R for updating the throughput per Near-RT RIC. | 1 | To be checked | @Ahila P | COMPLETED | |
CL_11 | Closed Loop | Upon receiving the reconfiguration trigger from SO, SDN-R sends the config updates to RAN-Sim (Near-RT RIC) successfully. | 1 | @Ahila P | DEFERRED | Some minor aspects on SDN-R ↔ RAN-Sim interface needs to be fixed (most likely on RAN-Sim side). This will be done in Istanbul. | |
CL_12 | Intelligent Slicing | PM data on PDU sessions requested, setup successfully and failed to setup reported by RAN-Sim (in a file) are posted on DMaaP via VES Collector | 1 | To be checked | @Niranjana Y | completed | |
CL_13 | Intelligent Slicing | DataFileCollector reads the VES notification, fetches the PM xml file from RAN Simulator (SFTP) and posts in data router | 1 | @Niranjana Y | completed | ||
CL_14 | Intelligent Slicing | PM Mapper reads the PM file from data router, generates PM events and posts in message router | 1 | @Niranjana Y | completed | ||
CL_15 | Intelligent Slicing | Slice Analysis MS receives updates to maxNumberofConns per cell for each S-NSSAI from ML-MS (onboarded just for flow testing and demo), and triggers Policy for Control Loop action | 1 | @Ahila P | COMPLETED | ||
CL_16 | Intelligent Slicing | Upon reception of CL action from Slice Analysis MS, Policy triggers SO (RAN NSSMF) for reconfiguration of RAN resources. | 1 | @Ahila P | COMPLETED | ||
CL_17 | Intelligent Slicing | Upon CL trigger from Policy, SO (RAN NSSMF) triggers SDN-R for updating the throughput per Near-RT RIC. | 1 | To be checked | @Ahila P | COMPLETED | |
CL_18 | Intelligent Slicing | Upon receiving the reconfiguration trigger from SO, SDN-R sends the config updates to RAN-Sim (Near-RT RIC) successfully. | 1 | To be checked | @Ahila P | DEFERRED | Some minor aspects on SDN-R ↔ RAN-Sim interface needs to be fixed (most likely on RAN-Sim side).
