This repository contains the tng-sdk-benchmark
component that is part of the European H2020 project 5GTANGO NFV SDK. This component is responsible to automatically execute performance benchmarks of NFV network services and functions.
The seed code of this component is based on the son-cli
toolbox, specifically the son-profile
tool, which was developed as part of the European H2020 project SONATA.
If you use this tool for your research, publications, or NFV projects, please consider to cite the following paper:

Please follow this guide to install and setup tng-sdk-benchmark and a corresponding execution environment.
Before you can run your first benchmarking experiment, you need to install tng-bench and an execution platform following this guide.
tng-bench -p examples/peds/ped_suricata_tp_small.yml
Runs the result processing module using existing results. This step is also automatically performed once at the end of an experiment execution.
# manually trigger result processing of generated results (to create *.csv files)
tng-bench-result -rd results/
To contribute to the development of this 5GTANGO component, you may use the very same development workflow as for any other 5GTANGO Github project. That is, you have to fork the repository and create pull requests.
$ python setup.py develop
All pull requests are automatically tested by Jenkins and will only be accepted if no test is broken.
You can also run the test manually on your local machine. To do so, you need to do:
$ pytest -v
