The basic Overlay IPv6 Testing (i.e. tenant IPv6 networks using Neutron) are loaded by Tempest by default in the Smoke Scenario (Tempest Scenario Testing).
https://github.com/openstack/tempest/blob/master/tempest/scenario/test_network_v6.py
the process is
1. Create network with subnets:
1.1. one IPv4 and
1.2. one or more IPv6 in a given address mode
2. Boot 2 VMs on this network
3. Allocate and assign 2 FIP4
4. Check that vNICs of all VMs gets all addresses actually assigned
5. Each VM will ping the other's v4 private address
6. If ping6 available in VM, each VM will ping all of the other's v6 addresses as well as the router's- This can be reused as the basis.
Action: how to show the result on the dashboard, one example in https://build.opnfv.org/ci/job/functest-fuel-baremetal-daily-master/261/console, you can see the ipv6 test result. work with/in functest.
Yardstick
- already have Overlay IPv6 Testing for specific use case “Service VM as IPv6 vRouter”. https://git.opnfv.org/cgit/yardstick/tree/tests/opnfv/test_cases/opnfv_yardstick_tc027.yaml
Some hardcoded names, IP addresses etc. need change, of course. test case description will also be added in the test case.
(Note: there should be a JIRA task here for yardstick, https://github.com/openstack/tempest/blob/master/tempest/config.py#L632 can be good examples, such as packetsize, ping_count, etc. During the release time, some problems with the developing, MatthewLi will work on this, parameter options will be added, etc)
