Overview

The intention of this page is to outline what CNTT "success" looks like by Sep @ LFN ONES 2020, along with high level tracking items that need to be completed.

Success is defined as:

TBD - documentation created ? test suites defined ? test suites executed ?
TBD
TBD

To-Do (Spec)

This is a comprehensive list of work that can be done. A subset of the list below will go into Baraque (and will be saved in the release notes for Baraque).

A: To be included in Baraque Release.

B: Nice to include in Baraque Release.

C: Low Priority for Baraque Release.

0	NFG: Finalise Networking Modelling	by May 30.	Finish with stable version
1	NFG: Add HW Accel capabilities (include SmartNIC)		Based on the modelling done by NFG, SmartNIC support and HW acceleration to be supported by RM.
2	Better Characterisation of Networking and Storage.
3	Data-centre Tier Services and how to integrate them tin RM.
4	Technically make sure RM supports both Containers as well VMs.		we need to analysis where we need to be more agnostic.

1	Update RA-1 for new CNTT OSTK Release	Tentative Sept 15, 2020	If and when a new OSTK release selected a new fully self-contained version of RA-1 document will be created.
2	Add SmartNIC		This is dependent on #4 "Finalised RM NFG" and RM Topic #1. May I suggest that we make this a subtopic of #4.
3	Add HW Accel		Cyborg is being re-architected and will have a new API (v2) that is not backward compatible. We had included Cyborg and API v1 in the current (Baldy) release but decided to remove. If the next RA-1 release (Baraque) will be based on a new OSTK release then depending upon the release selected it may or may not be possible to add this topic.
4	NFG: Finalise Networking Architecture to match RM.	> May 30th.

1	Finish & Cleanup Lab Requirement Need a Topology Diagram. Need Networking/Switching Requirements.	Chp04
2	Descriptor File requirement finalised.	chp05 chp06
3	Add more installer general requirement (e.g. the need for it to be opensource, the result of it needs to be opensource).	chp06
4	Finish Cookbook to align with RA-1	ch08
5	Finish Lab Cookbook	ch07
6	Need some initial content (are there no gaps? )	chp09
Development (CIRV)
	B: Resolve Continuous Software Deployment Errors
	B: Document & Perform Repeatable CICD Deployment
	B: Descriptor File - finalize & perform PoC Refer to: [RI 1 Core]: Work with OPNFV Infra WG for the evolvment of PDF to fit into need for CNTT RI #526 [RI 1 Labs] Tooling to Generate a PDF matching Airship Internal Data Structure #525

	A: 1.7 Results Collation & Presentation - write section on where/how results will be normalized, collated, and presented C: 1.8 Governance - expand to include LCM, define partnerships and expectations from these partners as to what info or support is exchanged, or provided C: [RC1 Ch01] Provide Verification Process, including Life Cycle Management #159		Updates to: Ch01: Introduction don't think LCM should be considered in RC. need discussion within WS
	C: 3.8.2 Resiliency Measurements - need to be written		Updates to: (NFVI) Ch03: NFVI Test Cases Requirements don't understand what exactly this means. need discussion within WS
	B : Review the applicability for, &/or Create content for Test Case Traceability of the following: 5.3.8 Tenants 5.3.9 LCM 5.3.10 Assurance 5.3.11 Security 5.3.13 Resilience 5.3.14 Bare-metal validations		Updates to: (NFVI) Ch05: NFVI Test Cases and Traceability to CNTT Requirements
	C: (General) Create Tools & Perform Hardware & Manifest Verifications		Part of long-term RC program
	C: (General) Perform Empirical Validations (against prototype VNFs)		Part of long-term RC program
	B: 6.2.2. Prototype VNFs - Identify reference VNFs per Family Types to be used for Empirical Data Collection and evaluation against 'real' VNFs C: Expand (elaborate) the following which has no/limited content today: 6.4.11 User & System Interfaces - lacks context, lists only UI and Programming Interfacce 6.4.12 Deliverables - needs content to describe by Docker and Standalone Installation Scripts are needed and pertinent for VNF Frameworks		(VNF) Ch06: VNF Testing Framework Requirements don't think RC should emphasiz user interface and deliverables. need discussion within WS
	C: 7.5 Interaction Type - Describe the types of Interactions: Extended Topology, Complex (Akraino), Functional, HA, Fault, Interoperability		(VNF) Ch07: VNF Test Cases Requirements what exactly does this mean?
	A: Chapter needs community review and inputs - integrated NFVI framework (Section 8.3) is missing context, or reference to prior NFVI E2E Framework chapters. Clean up needed. e.g. Content examples to add Identify Framework Needs, Goals, and Dependencies Define Opensource Integration (OPNFV, OVP, Functest, CVC, others) Provide Automation Toolchain (list, topology, flow) Missing content needs to be reviewed/vetted for inclusion, and if needed, write content: 8.2.2. Yardstick - purpose, adoption &/or use of project, define why important 8.2.3 Bottlenecks - purpose, adoption &/or use of project, define importance		(Dev) Ch08: VNF Testing Cookbook
	C: All Chapter Content needs to be written: Introduction - Provide an overview of the purpose for the VNF TC Traceability to RM Requirements chapter RM/RA1 Requirements - define requirements Test Case Traceability - tracing test cases to requirements		(VNF) Ch09: VNF Test Cases and Traceability to CNTT Requirements
	B: Content needs to be expanded: 10.2 OpenStack Release Comparisons - need to upload/add existing content regarding detail / comparison of OpenStack releases based on Pike baseline for CNTT RI-1 (e.g. Ocata, Pike, Queens, Stein, etc) 10.5 Framework Gaps - VTP is referenced as framework gap, but need to also include: Hardware (baremetal) Validations Software (manifest) Validations VVP heat artifact/template validations		(Dev) Ch10: Gap analysis & Development: don't think it is necessary to compare openstack releases here in RC
	Performance Test Tooling, Test Cases, Strategy, and Methodology		Add to Test Framework/Methodology Chapters
