List of "use cases" that would result in test suites or test objects to be covered by Dovetail.
| Use Case | Area | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Add image | VIM operations | |
| Query/list images | VIM operations | |
| Create network | VIM operations | |
| Create subnet | VIM operations | |
| Delete subnet | VIM operations | |
Start an instance | VIM operations | Start a VM/container, verify that it comes up |
| Stop an instance | VIM operations | Stop a VM/container, verify that it goes down |
Connect VMs | VIM operations | Start 2 VMs/containers and verify IPv4/IPv6 network connectivity between them |
| ...fill out CRUD operations for instances, network (+ storage?) | ||
| IPv6 IPAM for an instance | IPv6 | Verify DHCPv6 (stateful & stateless), SLAAC |
| Security rules | IPv6 | IPv6 security rules for |
| IPv6 routing | IPv6 | |
Relaunch instance  | Fault management | When an instance fails, can the platform restart the instance automatically? |
| Scale-up | Fault management | Can a new instance of a given type be launched when a certain load is hit? |
| Subscribe to a fault event | Fault management | Listen for an instance fault , and verify that when the instance is killed we hear about it |
Some other "area" ideas:
- Basic VIM operations (CRUD for instances, networks)
- IPv6
- VPN
- SFC
- Networking
- Security
- Fault management
- Policy enforcement (hardware/host requirements, affinity/anti-affinity, SLA)
- HA
- Application LCM (not sure what this might mean)
- Scalability (scale-in, scale-out?)
- Updates, upgrades (deploying host, guest updates)
- Storage?
