Subject: [RFC PATCH v1 2/3] dts: add port stats checks test suite
Date: Fri,  2 Aug 2024 13:29:27 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240802172928.212277-3-jspewock@iol.unh.edu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240802172928.212277-1-jspewock@iol.unh.edu>

From: Jeremy Spewock <jspewock@iol.unh.edu>

This patch adds a new test suite to DTS that validates the accuracy of
the port statistics using testpmd. The functionality is tested by
sending a packet of a fixed side to the SUT and verifying that the
statistic for packets received, received bytes, packets sent, and sent
bytes all update accordingly.

Depends-on: patch-142762 ("dts: add text parser for testpmd verbose
 output")

+"""Port Statistics testing suite.
+
+This test suite tests the functionality of querying the statistics of a port and verifies that the
+values provided in the statistics accurately reflect the traffic that has been handled on the port.
+This is shown by sending a packet of a fixed size to the SUT and verifying that the number of RX
+packets has increased by 1, the number of RX bytes has increased by the specified size, the number
+of TX packets has also increased by 1 (since we expect the packet to be forwarded), and the number
+of TX bytes has also increased by the same fixed amount.
