Folks,

We've pushed a good chunk of our integration test framework, known as 'toit' (The \
Open vSwitch Integration Testsuite), to the OPNFV community. You can find the mail \
with links to the reviews here:

	http://lists.opnfv.org/pipermail/opnfv-tech-discuss/2015-February/001244.html

'toit' is an integration/performance testing framework I developed to replace a \
legacy, Bash-based one we used for Intel DPDK vSwitch. We use 'toit' to validate any \
significant changes we make to Open vSwitch (such as the vHost RFC) and also run it \
in our nightly builds to highlight any performance issues that may have made their \
way into upstream master.

The expectation is that 'toit' will be refactored to genericize it for different \
switches/platforms (it currently focuses on Open vSwitch w/ DPDK datapath on Fedora). \
However, there's a good chance that, given a little work (mainly making use of \
libvirt/vagrant for VMs + supporting other datapath types), much of it would be \
suitable for use in the integration test framework that appears to be in development:

The OPNFV mail includes links to the actual Gerrit reviews (note that you will \
require Linux Foundation credentials to access this). I also have slides that I can \
share (does the mailing list support attachments?). I would welcome feedback on any \
aspect of the framework, should it interest anyone.

Cheers,
Stephen
