Python OO API package to automate Spirent TestCenter (STC) traffic generator
Project description
This package implements Python OO API for STC.
----------------------------------------------
Functionality
"""""""""""""
The current version supports the following test flow:
- Load configuration -> Get/Set attributes -> Start/Stop traffic -> Get statistics.
Supported operations:
- Basic operations - get/set attributes, get/create children.
- Connect - to chassis or lab server
- Load configuration - load configuration (tcc or XML), reserve ports and analyze the configuration
- Start/Stop - arp, ping, devices, ports, streams
- Statistics - subscribe, read views, unsubscribe
- Save configuration and results
- Disconnect
The package also support Add/Remove objects so it supports the following test case:
- Build configuration -> Start/Stop traffic -> Get statistics.
But this is less documented at this version.
Low level APIs
""""""""""""""
- StcTclWrapper - a Python wrapper (using Python Tk package) over STC native Tcl API (SpirentTestCenter) .
- StcPythonWrapper - a Python wrapper over STC native Python API (StcPython.py)
- StcRestWrapper - a Python wrapper over STC lab server REST API (using stcrestclient package).
Installation
""""""""""""
pip instsll pytestcenter
Prerequisite
""""""""""""
TestCenter application installed for Tcl and Python APIs.
Lab/Rese server for REST API.
Getting started
"""""""""""""""
Under testcenter.test.stc_samples you will find some basic samples.
See inside for more info.
Documentation
"""""""""""""
http://pytestcenter.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
TestCenter and IxNetwork
""""""""""""""""""""""""
IxNetwork package and TestCenter extend the same base classes from TrafficGenerator.
In some future version we plan TrafficGenerator a complete abstract API so tests that work in the basic test flow will
be able to run over IxNetwork and TestCenter seamlessly.
