Policy APEX PDP component
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Both the Stability and the Performance tests were executed in a full ONAP OOM deployment in Nordix lab.
Setup Details
+++++++++++++
- APEX-PDP along with all policy components deployed as part of a full ONAP OOM deployment.
- 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/
- 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 more strict fashion during the tests.
There are test cases where upto 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.
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.
=================== ===============================================================================
**Name** **Description**
=================== ===============================================================================
HOSTNAME IP Address or host name to access the components
PAP_PORT Port number of PAP for making REST API calls such as deploy/undeploy of policy
API_PORT Port number of API for making REST API calls such as create/ delete of policy
APEX_PORT Port number of APEX for making REST API calls such as healthcheck/metrics
wait Wait time if required after a request (in milliseconds)
threads Number of threads to run test cases in parallel
threadsTimeOutInMs Synchronization timer for threads running in parallel (in milliseconds)
=================== ===============================================================================
Run Test
--------
The test was run in the background via "nohup", to prevent it from being interrupted:
.. code-block:: bash
nohup ./apache-jmeter-5.4.1/bin/jmeter.sh -n -t apexPdpStabilityTestPlan.jmx -l stabilityTestResults.jtl
Test Results
------------
**Summary**
Stability test plan was triggered for 72 hours. There were no failures during the 72 hours test.
**Test Statistics**
======================= ================= ================== ==================================
**Total # of requests** **Success %** **Error %** **Average time taken per request**
======================= ================= ================== ==================================
428661 100 % 0.00 % 162 ms
======================= ================= ================== ==================================
.. Note::
There were no failures during the 72 hours test.

**Memory and CPU usage**
The memory and CPU usage can be monitored by running "top" command in the APEX-PDP 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 APEX-PDP
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Introduction
------------
Performance test of APEX-PDP is done similar to the stability test, but in a more extreme manner using higher thread count.
Setup Details
-------------
The performance test is performed on a similar setup as Stability test.
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 used in the Main Phase from 5 to 20.
- Reduce the test time to 2 hours.
Run Test
--------
.. code-block:: bash
nohup ./apache-jmeter-5.4.1/bin/jmeter.sh -n -t apexPdpPerformanceTestPlan.jmx -l perftestresults.jtl
Test Results
------------
Test results are shown as below.

+++++++
Multiple policies were executed in a multi threaded fashion for both stability and performance tests.
Both tests ran smoothly without any issues.
