+Policy APEX PDP component
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Both the Stability and the Performance tests were executed in a full ONAP OOM deployment in Nordix lab.
+
+Setup Details
++++++++++++++
+
+Deploying ONAP using OOM
+------------------------
+
+APEX-PDP along with all policy components are deployed as part of a full ONAP OOM deployment.
+At a minimum, the following ONAP components are needed: policy, mariadb-galera, aai, cassandra, aaf, and dmaap.
+
+Before deploying, the values.yaml files are changed to use NodePort instead of ClusterIP for policy-api,
+policy-pap, and policy-apex-pdp, so that they are accessible from jmeter::
+
+ policy-apex-pdp NodePort 10.43.131.43 <none> 6969:31739/TCP
+ policy-api NodePort 10.43.67.153 <none> 6969:30430/TCP
+ policy-pap NodePort 10.43.200.57 <none> 6969:30585/TCP
+
+The node ports (31739, 30430 and 30585 above) are used in JMeter.
+The HOSTNAMEs for JMeter are set to the IPs returned by running "kubectl get node -o wide"
+and to find the applications for each node by running "kubectl describe node <node-name>".
+
+Set up policy-models-simulator
+------------------------------
+
+Policy-models-simulator is deployed to use CDS and DMaaP simulators during policy execution.
+ Simulator configurations used are available in apex-pdp repository:
+ testsuites/apex-pdp-stability/src/main/resources/simulatorConfig/
+
+It is run as a docker image from a node accessible to the kubernetes cluster::
+
+ docker run -d --rm --publish 6680:6680 --publish 31054:3905 \
+ --volume "apex-pdp/testsuites/apex-pdp-stability/src/main/resources/simulatorConfig:/opt/app/policy/simulators/etc/mounted" \
+ nexus3.onap.org:10001/onap/policy-models-simulator:2.7-SNAPSHOT-latest
+
+The published ports 6680 and 31054 are used in JMeter for CDS and DMaaP simulators.
+
+Creation of VNF & PNF in AAI
+----------------------------
+
+In order for APEX-PDP engine to fetch the resource details from AAI during runtime execution, we need to create dummy
+VNF & PNF entities in AAI. In a real control loop flow, the entities in AAI will be either created during orchestration
+phase or provisioned in AAI separately.
+
+Download & execute the steps in postman collection for creating the entities along with it’s dependencies.
+The steps needs to be performed sequentially one after another. And no input is required from user.
+
+:download:`Create VNF & PNF in AAI for Apex S3P </development/devtools/postman/create-vnf-pnf-aai-for-apex-s3p.postman_collection.json>`
+
+Make sure to skip the delete VNF & PNF steps.
+
+JMeter Tests
+------------
+
+Two APEX policies are executed in the APEX-PDP engine, and are triggered by multiple threads during the tests.
+Both tests were run via jMeter.
+
+ Stability test script is available in apex-pdp repository:
+ testsuites/apex-pdp-stability/src/main/resources/apexPdpStabilityTestPlan.jmx
+
+ Performance test script is available in apex-pdp repository:
+ testsuites/performance/performance-benchmark-test/src/main/resources/apexPdpPerformanceTestPlan.jmx
+
+.. Note::
+ Policy executions are validated in a stricter fashion during the tests.
+ There are test cases where up to 80 events are expected on the DMaaP topic.
+ DMaaP simulator is used to keep it simple and avoid any message pickup timing related issues.
+
+Stability Test of APEX-PDP
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+
+Test Plan
+---------
+
+The 72 hours stability test ran the following steps.
+
+Setup Phase
+"""""""""""
+
+Policies are created and deployed to APEX-PDP during this phase. Only one thread is in action and this step is done only once.
+
+- **Create Policy onap.policies.apex.Simplecontrolloop** - creates the first APEX policy using policy/api component.
+ This is a sample policy used for PNF testing.
+- **Create Policy onap.policies.apex.Example** - creates the second APEX policy using policy/api component.
+ This is a sample policy used for VNF testing.
+- **Deploy Policies** - Deploy both the policies created to APEX-PDP using policy/pap component
+
+Main Phase
+""""""""""
+
+Once the policies are created and deployed to APEX-PDP by the setup thread, five threads execute the below tests for 72 hours.
+
+- **Healthcheck** - checks the health status of APEX-PDP
+- **Prometheus Metrics** - checks that APEX-PDP is exposing prometheus metrics
+- **Test Simplecontrolloop policy success case** - Send a trigger event to *unauthenticated.DCAE_CL_OUTPUT* DMaaP topic.
+ If the policy execution is successful, 3 different notification events are sent to *APEX-CL-MGT* topic by each one of the 5 threads.
+ So, it is checked if 15 notification messages are received in total on *APEX-CL-MGT* topic with the relevant messages.
+- **Test Simplecontrolloop policy failure case** - Send a trigger event with invalid pnfName to *unauthenticated.DCAE_CL_OUTPUT* DMaaP topic.
+ The policy execution is expected to fail due to AAI failure response. 2 notification events are expected on *APEX-CL-MGT* topic by a thread in this case.
+ It is checked if 10 notification messages are received in total on *APEX-CL-MGT* topic with the relevant messages.
+- **Test Example policy success case** - Send a trigger event to *unauthenticated.DCAE_POLICY_EXAMPLE_OUTPUT* DMaaP topic.
+ If the policy execution is successful, 4 different notification events are sent to *APEX-CL-MGT* topic by each one of the 5 threads.
+ So, it is checked if 20 notification messages are received in total on *APEX-CL-MGT* topic with the relevant messages.
+- **Test Example policy failure case** - Send a trigger event with invalid vnfName to *unauthenticated.DCAE_POLICY_EXAMPLE_OUTPUT* DMaaP topic.
+ The policy execution is expected to fail due to AAI failure response. 2 notification events are expected on *APEX-CL-MGT* topic by a thread in this case.
+ So, it is checked if 10 notification messages are received in total on *APEX-CL-MGT* topic with the relevant messages.
+- **Clean up DMaaP notification topic** - DMaaP notification topic which is *APEX-CL-MGT* is cleaned up after each test to make sure that one failure doesn't lead to cascading errors.
+
+
+Teardown Phase
+""""""""""""""
+
+Policies are undeployed from APEX-PDP and deleted during this phase.
+Only one thread is in action and this step is done only once after the Main phase is complete.
+
+- **Undeploy Policies** - Undeploy both the policies from APEX-PDP using policy/pap component
+- **Delete Policy onap.policies.apex.Simplecontrolloop** - delete the first APEX policy using policy/api component.
+- **Delete Policy onap.policies.apex.Example** - delete the second APEX policy also using policy/api component.
+
+Test Configuration
+------------------
+
+The following steps can be used to configure the parameters of test plan.
+
+- **HTTP Authorization Manager** - used to store user/password authentication details.
+- **HTTP Header Manager** - used to store headers which will be used for making HTTP requests.
+- **User Defined Variables** - used to store following user defined parameters.

+
+72 Hours Stability Test of Policy API
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+The 72 hour stability test of policy API has the goal of verifying the stability of running policy design API REST
+service by ingesting a steady flow of transactions in a multi-threaded fashion to
+simulate multiple clients' behaviours.
+All the transaction flows are initiated from a test client server running JMeter for the duration of 72 hours.
+
+Setup Details
+-------------
+
+The stability test was performed on a default ONAP OOM installation in the Nordix Lab environment.
+JMeter was installed on a separate VM to inject the traffic defined in the
+`API stability script
+<https://git.onap.org/policy/api/tree/testsuites/stability/src/main/resources/testplans/policy_api_stability.jmx>`_
+with the following command:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ nohup apache-jmeter-5.5/bin/jmeter -n -t policy_api_stability.jmx -l stabilityTestResultsPolicyApi.jtl &
+
+The test was run in the background via “nohup” and “&”, to prevent it from being interrupted.
+
+Test Plan
+---------
+
+The 72+ hours stability test will be running the following steps sequentially
+in multi-threaded loops. Thread number is set to 5 to simulate 5 API clients'
+behaviours (they can be calling the same policy CRUD API simultaneously).
+Each thread creates a different version of the policy types and policies to not
+interfere with one another while operating simultaneously. The point version
+of each entity is set to the running thread number.

+Performance Test of Policy API
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+Performance test of policy-api has the goal of testing the min/avg/max processing time and rest call throughput for all the requests when the number of requests are large enough to saturate the resource and find the bottleneck.
+
+Setup Details
+-------------
+
+The performance test was performed on a default ONAP OOM installation in the Nordix Lab environment.
+JMeter was installed on a separate VM to inject the traffic defined in the
+`API performance script
+<https://git.onap.org/policy/api/tree/testsuites/performance/src/main/resources/testplans/policy_api_performance.jmx>`_
+with the following command:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ nohup apache-jmeter-5.5/bin/jmeter -n -t policy_api_performance.jmx -l performanceTestResultsPolicyApi.jtl &
+
+The test was run in the background via “nohup” and “&”, to prevent it from being interrupted.
+
+Test Plan
+---------
+
+Performance test plan is the same as stability test plan above.
+Only differences are, in performance test, we increase the number of threads up to 20 (simulating 20 users' behaviours at the same time) whereas reducing the test time down to 2.5 hours.
+
+Run Test
+--------
+
+Running/Triggering performance test will be the same as stability test. That is, launch JMeter pointing to corresponding *.jmx* test plan. The *API_HOST* and *API_PORT* are already set up in *.jmx*.

+Policy Clamp Automation Composition
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Both the Performance and the Stability tests were executed by performing requests
+against acm components installed as docker images in local environment.
+
+
+ACM Deployment
+++++++++++++++
+
+The docker containers can be deployed via Policy CSIT script.
+Clone the Policy/docker repo to the local vm
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ git clone "https://gerrit.onap.org/r/policy/docker"
+
+Set the following environment variables on the system before deploying the containers.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ export CONTAINER_LOCATION=nexus3.onap.org:10001/
+ export PROJECT=clamp
+
+Invoke the following script from the ~/docker/csit folder.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ ./start-all.sh
+
+This script installs the docker containers of ACM and Policy components required for running the tests.
+
+
+Jmeter setup
+++++++++++++
+
+Apache jmeter tool is installed either on the same virtual machine or on a different virtual machine.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ # Install required packages
+ sudo apt install -y wget unzip
+
+ # Install JMeter
+ mkdir -p jmeter
+ cd jmeter
+ wget https://dlcdn.apache.org//jmeter/binaries/apache-jmeter-5.5.zip # check if valid version
+ unzip -q apache-jmeter-5.5.zip
+ rm apache-jmeter-5.5.zip
+
+
+Setup Verification
+++++++++++++++++++
+Ensure the following components are up and running before executing the test.
+
+- acm runtime component docker image is started and running.
+- Participant docker images policy-clamp-cl-pf-ppnt, policy-clamp-cl-http-ppnt, policy-clamp-cl-k8s-ppnt are started and running.
+- Dmaap simulator for communication between components.
+- mariadb docker container for policy and clampacm database.
+- policy-api for communication between policy participant and policy-framework
+- Both tests were run via jMeter, which was installed on a separate VM.
+
+Stability Test of acm components
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+
+Test Plan
+---------
+The 72 hours stability test ran the following steps sequentially in a single threaded loop.
+
+- **Create Policy defaultDomain** - creates an operational policy using policy/api component
+- **Delete Policy sampleDomain** - deletes the operational policy sampleDomain using policy/api component
+- **Commission AC definition** - commissions the acm definition in runtime
+- **Instantiate acm** - Instantiate the acm towards participants
+- **Check acm state** - check the current state of acm
+- **Change State to PASSIVE** - change the state of the acm to PASSIVE
+- **Check acm state** - check the current state of acm
+- **Change State to UNINITIALISED** - change the state of the ACM to UNINITIALISED
+- **Check acm state** - check the current state of acm
+- **Delete instantiated acm** - delete the instantiated acm from all participants
+- **Delete ACM Definition** - delete the acm definition on runtime
+
+The following parameters can be configured on the JMX file for the test.
+
+- **HTTP Authorization Manager** - used to store user/password authentication details.
+- **HTTP Header Manager** - used to store headers which will be used for making HTTP requests.
+- **User Defined Variables** - used to store following user defined parameters.
+
+============================= ========================================================================
+ **Name** **Description**
+============================= ========================================================================
+ RUNTIME_HOST IP Address or host name of acm runtime component
+ RUNTIME_PORT Port number of acm runtime components for making REST API calls
+ POLICY_PARTICIPANT_HOST IP Address or host name of policy participant
+ POLICY_PARTICIPANT_HOST_PORT Port number of policy participant
+============================= ========================================================================
+
+Download the ACM stability.jmx and performance.jmx files from the Policy-Clamp repo.
+
+Stability jmx file
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ ~/clamp/testsuites/stability/src/main/resources/testplans/stability.jmx
+
+The test was run in the background via "nohup", to prevent it from being interrupted:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ nohup ./jmeter/apache-jmeter-5.5/bin/jmeter -n -t stability.jmx -l testresults.jtl
+
+Test Results
+------------
+
+**Summary**
+
+Stability test plan was triggered for 72 hours.
+
+.. Note::
+
+ .. container:: paragraph
+
+ The assertions of state changes are not completely taken care of, as the stability is ran with acm components
+ alone, and not including complete policy framework deployment, which makes it difficult for actual state changes from
+ PASSIVE to RUNNING etc to happen.

+Performance Test of acm components
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+Performance test of acm components has the goal of testing the min/avg/max processing time and rest call throughput for all the requests with multiple requests at the same time.
+
+Setup Details
+-------------
+
+The performance test is performed on a similar setup as Stability test. The JMeter VM will be sending a large number of REST requests to the runtime component and collecting the statistics.
+
+
+Test Plan
+---------
+
+Performance test plan is the same as the stability test plan above except for the few differences listed below.
+
+- Increase the number of threads up to 5 (simulating 5 users' behaviours at the same time).
+- Reduce the test time to 2 hours.
+
+Run Test
+--------
+
+Performance jmx file
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ ~/clamp/testsuites/performance/src/main/resources/testplans/performance.jmx
+
+Running/Triggering the performance test will be the same as the stability test. That is, launch JMeter pointing to corresponding *.jmx* test plan. The *RUNTIME_HOST*, *RUNTIME_PORT*, *POLICY_PARTICIPANT_HOST*, *POLICY_PARTICIPANT_HOST_PORT* are already set up in *.jmx*
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ nohup ./jmeter/apache-jmeter-5.5/bin/jmeter -n -t performance.jmx -l testresults.jtl
+
+Once the test execution is completed, execute the below script to get the statistics:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ $ cd ./clamp/testsuites/performance/src/main/resources/testplans
+ $ ./results.sh resultTree.log
+
+Test Results

+Stability Test of Policy Distribution
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+The 72 hour Stability Test for policy distribution has the goal of introducing a steady flow of
+transactions initiated from a test client server running JMeter. The policy distribution is
+configured with a special FileSystemReception plugin to monitor a local directory for newly added
+csar files to be processed by itself. The input CSAR will be added/removed by the test client
+(JMeter) and the result will be pulled from the backend (PAP and PolicyAPI) by the test client
+(JMeter).
+
+The test will be performed in an environment where Jmeter will continuously add/remove a test csar
+into the special directory where policy distribution is monitoring and will then get the processed
+results from PAP and PolicyAPI to verify the successful deployment of the policy. The policy will
+then be undeployed and the test will loop continuously until 72 hours have elapsed.
+
+
+Test Plan Sequence
+------------------
+
+The 72h stability test will run the following steps sequentially in a single threaded loop.
+
+- **Delete Old CSAR** - Checks if CSAR already exists in the watched directory, if so it deletes it
+- **Add CSAR** - Adds CSAR to the directory that distribution is watching
+- **Get Healthcheck** - Ensures Healthcheck is returning 200 OK
+- **Get Statistics** - Ensures Statistics is returning 200 OK
+- **Get Metrics** - Ensures Metrics is returning 200 OK
+- **Assert PDP Group Query** - Checks that PDPGroupQuery contains the deployed policy
+- **Assert PoliciesDeployed** - Checks that the policy is deployed
+- **Undeploy/Delete Policy** - Undeploys and deletes the Policy for the next loop
+- **Assert PDP Group Query for Deleted Policy** - Ensures the policy has been removed and does not exist
+
+The following steps can be used to configure the parameters of the test plan.
+
+- **HTTP Authorization Manager** - used to store user/password authentication details.
+- **HTTP Header Manager** - used to store headers which will be used for making HTTP requests.
+- **User Defined Variables** - used to store following user defined parameters.
+

+
+
+Running the Test Plan
+---------------------
+
+Check if the /tmp/policydistribution/distributionmount exists as it was created during the start.sh
+script execution. If not, run the following commands to create folder and change folder permissions
+to allow the testplan to insert the CSAR into the /tmp/policydistribution/distributionmount folder.
+
+.. note::
+ Make sure that only csar file is being loaded in the watched folder and log generation is in a
+ logs folder, as any sort of zip file can be understood by distribution as a policy file. A
+ logback.xml configuration file is available under setup/distribution folder.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ sudo mkdir -p /tmp/policydistribution/distributionmount
+ sudo chmod -R a+trwx /tmp
+
+
+Navigate to the stability test folder.
+
+.. code-block:: bash

+Performance Test of Policy Distribution
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+The 4h Performance Test of Policy Distribution has the goal of testing the min/avg/max processing
+time and rest call throughput for all the requests when the number of requests are large enough to
+saturate the resource and find the bottleneck.
+
+It also tests that distribution can handle multiple policy CSARs and that these are deployed within
+60 seconds consistently.
+
+
+Setup Details
+-------------
+
+The performance test is based on the same setup as the distribution stability tests.
+
+
+Test Plan Sequence
+------------------
+
+Performance test plan is different from the stability test plan.
+
+- Instead of handling one policy csar at a time, multiple csar's are deployed within the watched
+ folder at the exact same time.
+- We expect all policies from these csar's to be deployed within 60 seconds.
+- There are also multithreaded tests running towards the healthcheck and statistics endpoints of
+ the distribution service.
+
+
+Running the Test Plan
+---------------------
+
+Check if /tmp folder permissions to allow the Testplan to insert the CSAR into the
+/tmp/policydistribution/distributionmount folder.
+Clean up from previous run. If necessary, put containers down with script ``down.sh`` from setup
+folder mentioned on :ref:`Setup components <setup-distribution-s3p-components>`
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ sudo mkdir -p /tmp/policydistribution/distributionmount
+ sudo chmod -R a+trwx /tmp
+
+Navigate to the testplan folder and execute the test script:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ cd ~/distribution/testsuites/performance/src/main/resources/testplans/
+ ./run_test.sh
+
+
+Test Results

+Policy Drools PDP component
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Both the Performance and the Stability tests were executed against an ONAP installation in the Policy tenant
+in the UNH lab, from the admin VM running the jmeter tool to inject the load.
+
+General Setup
+*************
+
+Agent VMs in this lab have the following configuration:
+
+- 16GB RAM
+- 8 VCPU
+
+Jmeter is run from the admin VM.
+
+The drools-pdp container uses the JVM memory and CPU settings from the default OOM installation.
+
+Other ONAP components exercised during the stability tests were:
+
+- Policy XACML PDP to process guard queries for each transaction.
+- DMaaP to carry PDP-D and jmeter initiated traffic to complete transactions.
+- Policy API to create (and delete at the end of the tests) policies for each
+ scenario under test.
+- Policy PAP to deploy (and undeploy at the end of the tests) policies for each scenario under test.
+- XACML PDP Stability test was running at the same time.
+
+The following components are simulated during the tests.
+
+- SDNR.
+
+Stability Test of Policy PDP-D
+******************************
+
+PDP-D performance
+=================
+
+The tests focused on the following use cases running in parallel:
+
+- vCPE
+- SON O1
+- SON A1
+
+Three threads ran in parallel, one for each scenario. The transactions were initiated
+by each jmeter thread group. Each thread initiated a transaction, monitored the transaction, and
+started the next one 250 ms. later.
+
+The results are illustrated on the following graphs:
+
+.. image:: drools-s3p-results/s3p-drools-1.png
+.. image:: drools-s3p-results/s3p-drools-2.png
+.. image:: drools-s3p-results/s3p-drools-3.png
+
+
+Commentary
+==========
+
+There is around 1% unexpected failures during the 72-hour run. This can also be seen in the
+final output of jmeter:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ summary = 4751546 in 72:00:37 = 18.3/s Avg: 150 Min: 0 Max: 15087 Err: 47891 (1.01%)
+
+Sporadic database errors have been observed and seem related to the 1% failure percentage rate.

+Policy PAP component
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Both the Performance and the Stability tests were executed by performing requests
+against Policy components installed as part of a full ONAP OOM deployment in Nordix lab.
+
+Setup Details
++++++++++++++
+
+- Policy-PAP along with all policy components deployed as part of a full ONAP OOM deployment.
+- A second instance of APEX-PDP is spun up in the setup. Update the configuration file (OnapPfConfig.json) such that the PDP can register to the new group created by PAP in the tests.
+- Both tests were run via jMeter.
+
+Stability Test of PAP
++++++++++++++++++++++
+
+Test Plan
+---------
+The 72 hours stability test ran the following steps sequentially in a single threaded loop.
+
+Setup Phase (steps running only once)
+"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+- **Create Policy for defaultGroup** - creates an operational policy using policy/api component
+- **Create NodeTemplate metadata for sampleGroup policy** - creates a node template containing metadata using policy/api component
+- **Create Policy for sampleGroup** - creates an operational policy that refers to the metadata created above using policy/api component
+- **Change defaultGroup state to ACTIVE** - changes the state of defaultGroup PdpGroup to ACTIVE
+- **Create/Update PDP Group** - creates a new PDPGroup named sampleGroup.
+ A second instance of the PDP that is already spun up gets registered to this new group
+- **Check PdpGroup Query** - makes a PdpGroup query request and verifies that both PdpGroups are in ACTIVE state.
+
+PAP Test Flow (steps running in a loop for 72 hours)
+""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+- **Check Health** - checks the health status of pap
+- **PAP Metrics** - Fetch prometheus metrics before the deployment/undeployment cycle
+ Save different counters such as deploy/undeploy-success/failure counters at API and engine level.
+- **Check PdpGroup Query** - makes a PdpGroup query request and verifies that both PdpGroups are in the ACTIVE state.
+- **Deploy Policy for defaultGroup** - deploys the policy defaultDomain to defaultGroup
+- **Check status of defaultGroup policy** - checks the status of defaultGroup PdpGroup with the defaultDomain policy 1.0.0.
+- **Check PdpGroup Audit defaultGroup** - checks the audit information for the defaultGroup PdpGroup.
+- **Check PdpGroup Audit Policy (defaultGroup)** - checks the audit information for the defaultGroup PdpGroup with the defaultDomain policy 1.0.0.
+- **Check PdpGroup Query** - makes a PdpGroup query request and verifies that 2 PdpGroups are in the ACTIVE state and defaultGroup has a policy deployed on it.
+- **Deployment Update for sampleGroup policy** - deploys the policy sampleDomain in sampleGroup PdpGroup using pap api
+- **Check status of sampleGroup** - checks the status of the sampleGroup PdpGroup.
+- **Check status of PdpGroups** - checks the status of both PdpGroups.
+- **Check PdpGroup Query** - makes a PdpGroup query request and verifies that the defaultGroup has a policy defaultDomain deployed on it and sampleGroup has policy sampleDomain deployed on it.
+- **Check Audit** - checks the audit information for all PdpGroups.
+- **Check Consolidated Health** - checks the consolidated health status of all policy components.
+- **Check Deployed Policies** - checks for all the deployed policies using pap api.
+- **Undeploy policy in sampleGroup** - undeploys the policy sampleDomain from sampleGroup PdpGroup using pap api
+- **Undeploy policy in defaultGroup** - undeploys the policy defaultDomain from PdpGroup
+- **Check status of policies** - checks the status of all policies and make sure both the policies are undeployed
+- **Check PdpGroup Query** - makes a PdpGroup query request and verifies that PdpGroup is in the PASSIVE state.
+- **PAP Metrics after deployments** - Fetch prometheus metrics after the deployment/undeployment cycle
+ Save the new counter values such as deploy/undeploy-success/failure counters at API and engine level, and check that the deploySuccess and undeploySuccess counters are increased by 2.
+
+.. Note::
+ To avoid putting a large Constant Timer value after every deployment/undeployment, the status API is polled until the deployment/undeployment
+ is successfully completed, or until a timeout. This is to make sure that the operation is completed successfully and the PDPs gets enough time to respond back.
+ Otherwise, before the deployment is marked successful by PAP, an undeployment could be triggered as part of other tests,
+ and the operation's corresponding prometheus counter at engine level will not get updated.
+
+Teardown Phase (steps running only once after PAP Test Flow is completed)
+"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+- **Change state to PASSIVE(sampleGroup)** - changes the state of sampleGroup PdpGroup to PASSIVE
+- **Delete PdpGroup sampleGroup** - delete the sampleGroup PdpGroup using pap api
+- **Change State to PASSIVE(defaultGroup)** - changes the state of defaultGroup PdpGroup to PASSIVE
+- **Delete policy created for defaultGroup** - deletes the operational policy defaultDomain using policy/api component
+- **Delete Policy created for sampleGroup** - deletes the operational policy sampleDomain using policy/api component
+- **Delete Nodetemplate metadata for sampleGroup policy** - deleted the nodetemplate containing metadata for sampleGroup policy
+
+The following steps can be used to configure the parameters of test plan.
+
+- **HTTP Authorization Manager** - used to store user/password authentication details.
+- **HTTP Header Manager** - used to store headers which will be used for making HTTP requests.

+
+.. Note::
+
+ There were 0.15% failures during the 72 hours test, due to the timing between the update of the metric "undeploySuccessCount" and the Undeploy itself.
+ We suggest for the next test to increase the timeout timing up to 130s between "Undeploy policy in defaultGroup" and "PAP Metrics after deployments"

+**Memory and CPU usage**
+
+The memory and CPU usage can be monitored by running "top" command in the PAP pod.
+A snapshot is taken before and after test execution to monitor the changes in resource utilization.
+Prometheus metrics is also collected before and after the test execution.

+Performance Test of PAP
+++++++++++++++++++++++++
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+Performance test of PAP has the goal of testing the min/avg/max processing time and rest call throughput for all the requests with multiple requests at the same time.
+
+Setup Details
+-------------
+
+The performance test is performed on a similar setup as Stability test. The JMeter VM will be sending a large number of REST requests to the PAP component and collecting the statistics.
+
+
+Test Plan
+---------
+
+Performance test plan is the same as the stability test plan above except for the few differences listed below.
+
+- Increase the number of threads up to 10 (simulating 10 users' behaviours at the same time).
+- Reduce the test time to 2 hours.
+- Usage of counters (simulating each user) to create different pdpGroups, update their state and later delete them.
+- Removed the tests to deploy policies to newly created groups as this will need a larger setup with multiple pdps registered to each group, which will also slow down the performance test with the time needed for registration process etc.
+- Usage of counters (simulating each user) to create different drools policies and deploy them to defaultGroup.
+ In the test, a thread count of 10 is used resulting in 10 different drools policies getting deployed and undeployed continuously for 2 hours.
+ Other standard operations like checking the deployment status of policies, checking the metrics, health etc remains.
+
+Run Test
+--------
+
+Running/Triggering the performance test will be the same as the stability test. That is, launch JMeter pointing to corresponding *.jmx* test plan. The *API_HOST* , *API_PORT* , *PAP_HOST* , *PAP_PORT* are already set up in *.jmx*.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ nohup apache-jmeter-5.5/bin/jmeter -n -t performance.jmx -l performanceTestResults.jtl &
+
+Test Results
+------------
+
+Test results are shown as below.

+Running the Policy Framework S3P Tests
+######################################
+
+.. contents::
+ :depth: 3
+
+Per release, the policy framework team perform stability and performance tests per component of the policy framework.
+This testing work involves performing a series of test on a full OOM deployment and updating the various test plans to work towards the given deployment.
+This work can take some time to setup before performing any tests to begin with.
+For stability testing, a tool called JMeter is used to trigger a series of tests for a period of 72 hours which has to be manually initiated and monitored by the tester.
+Likewise, with the performance tests, but in this case for ~2 hours.
+As part of the work to make to automate this process a script can be now triggered to bring up a microk8s cluster on a VM, install JMeter, alter the cluster info to match the JMX test plans for JMeter to trigger and gather results at the end.
+These S3P tests will be triggered for a shorter period as part of the CSITs to prove the stability and performance of our components.
+
+There has been recent work completed to trigger our CSIT tests in a K8s environment.
+As part of this work, a script has been created to bring up a microk8s cluster for testing purposes which includes all necessary components for our policy framework testing.
+For automating the S3Ps, we will use this script to bring up a K8s environment to perform the S3P tests against.
+Once this cluster is brought up, a script is called to alter the cluster.
+The IPS and PORTS of our policy components are set by this script to ensure consistency in the test plans.
+JMeter is installed and the S3P test plans are triggered to run by their respective components.

+
+Performance Test of Policy XACML PDP (Jakarta)
+**********************************************
+
+The Performance test was executed by performing requests
+against the Policy RESTful APIs.
+
+A default ONAP installation in the Policy tenant in UNH was used to run the tests.
+
+The Agent VMs in this lab have the following configuration:
+
+- 16GB RAM
+- 8 VCPU
+
+Summary
+=======
+
+The Performance test was executed, and the result analysed, via:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ jmeter -Jduration=1200 -Jusers=10 \
+ -Jxacml_ip=$ip -Jpap_ip=$ip -Japi_ip=$ip \
+ -Jxacml_port=30111 -Jpap_port=30197 -Japi_port=30664 \
+ -n -t perf.jmx -l testresults.jtl
+
+Note: the ports listed above correspond to port 6969 of the respective components.
+
+The performance tests runs the following, all in parallel:
+
+- Healthcheck, 10 simultaneous threads
+- Statistics, 10 simultaneous threads
+- Decisions, 10 simultaneous threads, each running the following in sequence:
+
+ - Monitoring Decision
+ - Monitoring Decision, abbreviated
+ - Naming Decision
+ - Optimization Decision
+ - Default Guard Decision (always "Permit")
+ - Frequency Limiter Guard Decision
+ - Min/Max Guard Decision
+
+When the script starts up, it uses policy-api to create, and policy-pap to deploy,
+the policies that are needed by the test. It assumes that the "naming" policy has
+already been created and deployed. Once the test completes, it undeploys and deletes
+the policies that it previously created.
+
+Results
+=======
+
+The test was run for 20 minutes with 10 users (i.e., threads), with the following results:
+
+.. csv-table::
+ :header: "Number of Users", "Throughput (requests/second)", "Average Latency (ms)"
+
+ 10, 4603, 2

+Stability Test of Policy XACML PDP
+**********************************
+
+This test was run using jmeter on a default
+ONAP installation in the Policy tenant in UNH.
+
+The Agent VMs in this lab have the following configuration:
+
+- 16GB RAM
+- 8 VCPU
+
+Summary
+=======
+
+The stability test was performed on a default ONAP OOM installation in the Policy tenant of the UNH lab.
+JMeter injected the traffic defined in the
+`XACML PDP stability script
+<https://git.onap.org/policy/xacml-pdp/tree/testsuites/stability/src/main/resources/testplans/stability.jmx>`_
+with the following command:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ jmeter.sh -Jduration=259200 -Jusers=2 -Jxacml_ip=$ip -Jpap_ip=$ip -Japi_ip=$ip \
+ -Jxacml_port=30111 -Jpap_port=30197 -Japi_port=30664 --nongui --testfile stability.jmx
+
+Note: the ports listed above correspond to port 6969 of the respective components.
+
+The default log level of the root and org.eclipse.jetty.server.RequestLog loggers in the logback.xml
+of the XACML PDP
+(om/kubernetes/policy/components/policy-xacml-pdp/resources/config/logback.xml)
+was set to WARN since the OOM installation did have log rotation enabled of the
+container logs in the kubernetes worker nodes.
+
+The stability test, stability.jmx, runs the following, all in parallel:
+
+- Healthcheck, 2 simultaneous threads
+- Statistics, 2 simultaneous threads
+- Decisions, 2 simultaneous threads, each running the following tasks in sequence:
+ - Monitoring Decision
+ - Monitoring Decision, abbreviated
+ - Naming Decision
+ - Optimization Decision
+ - Default Guard Decision (always "Permit")
+ - Frequency Limiter Guard Decision
+ - Min/Max Guard Decision
+
+When the script starts up, it uses policy-api to create, and policy-pap to deploy
+the policies that are needed by the test. It assumes that the "naming" policy has
+already been created and deployed. Once the test completes, it undeploys and deletes
+the policies that it previously created.
+
+Results
+=======
+
+The stability summary results were reported by JMeter with the following summary line:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ summary = 941639699 in 71:59:36 = 3633.2/s Avg: 1 Min: 0 Max: 842 Err: 0 (0.00%)
+
+The XACML PDP offered very good performance with JMeter for the traffic mix described above.
+The average transaction time is insignificant. The maximum transaction time of 842 ms.
+There was a Drools stability test running in parallel, hence the actual load was higher.
