1. Overview

The Blueprint Validation User Interface (Bluval UI) provides a user-friendly way for displaying blueprints validation test results. Based on these results, the status of a blueprint can be determined (mature, incubation state, etc.).

It is a web application based on ONAP portal SDK, version 2.4.0 (Casablanca). It consists of the front-end and back-end parts. The front-end part is based on HTML, CSS, and AngularJS technologies. The back-end part is based on Spring MVC and Apache Tomcat technologies.

2. Bluval UI overview

The Bluval UI can be reached in the following address:

https://bluval.akraino.org

The login page is displayed in Figure 1.

The user must apply for an appropriate account creation. Details about the user account creation can be found in subsection 12.1.

When a user logs in, a redirection is performed towards the landing page displayed in Figure 2.


Figure 2. Bluval UI landing page 

The general format of a Bluval UI page is the following:

  • Display of the menu items. This is depicted in the left side of a page, as shown in Figure 2.
  • Display of the selected menu sub-items. This is depicted under the selected menu, as shown in Figure 2.
  • Display of the title of the selected menu item / sub-item. This is shown in the upper part of a page, as is illustrated in Figure 2.
  • Display of the user’s login id. This is shown in the upper right part the page, as is illustrated in Figure 2.

The logout process is supported by clicking on the login id and then on log out button.

3. Using the “Validation Results” menu     

The “Validation results” menu is used for retrieving blueprint validation results from Nexus.

This menu is available for the following roles: admin, TSC member, Lab owner.

The “Validation Results” menu includes four sub-items, namely “Get most recent”, “Get by timestamp”, “Get last run” and “Get based on dates”.

3.1 Get most recent

This sub-item should be selected when the most recent validation results of a blueprint are needed. Currently, the last 100 results are retrieved and displayed. The corresponding page is depicted in Figure 2. It should be noted that this page is also used as the landing page of the Bluval UI.

A user should define the following data:

  • This defines the lab in which validation results will be searched.
  • This defines the blueprint for which results will be displayed.
  • Selected Blueprint version. This defines the version of the blueprint for which results will be displayed.

When the button ‘Get’ is clicked, the page shown in Figure 3 is illustrated.

Figure 3. Display of the Blueprint validation results

The user can use the following filters on the results, as is depicted in Figure 3:

  • Blueprint layer. The layer of the blueprint
  • The overall outcome of the test execution (‘SUCCESS’ or ‘FAILURE’)
  • The timestamp associated with a result

Moreover, the following data is displayed for each result, as shown in Figure 3:

  • The lab
  • The Blueprint name
  • The Blueprint version
  • The timestamp associated with the result
  • The date and time of the result creation
  • Whether the optional test cases have been used
  • Whether all layers of the blueprint have been used
  • The used blueprint layers
  • The submission to which this results is associated
  • The overall outcome

It should be noted that the user can be further informed about a result by clicking on the button available in the ‘result’ column. Then, the modal illustrated in Figure 4 will be displayed, based on which the user can select a specific test suite of a layer to be demonstrated.

Figure 4. Selection of test suites

Next, details based on these selections will be listed, as is illustrated in Figure 5. Some of these details are the following: test statistics, test execution log and sub-suite robot keywords. The user can hide or show details about the last two items by clicking on them.

By scrolling down, the test cases section is shown. Here, details about the test cases of the test suite are depicted, as is illustrated in Figure 6.

By clicking on a specific test case, the user can be informed about the used robot keywords of this case.

3.2 Get by Timestamp

This sub-item should be selected when only a result is needed whose timestamp is known. The corresponding page is depicted in Figure 7.

A user should define the following data:

  • This defines the lab in which validation results will be searched.
  • This defines the blueprint for which results will be displayed.
  • Selected Blueprint version. This defines the version of the blueprint for which results will be displayed.
  • This defines the timestamp associated with the result.

When the button ‘Get’ is clicked, the same workflow should be used as with the one described in the subsection 3.1.

3.3 Get last run

This sub-item should be selected when the last result associated with the combination of the following data is needed:

  • This defines the lab in which validation results will be searched.
  • This defines the blueprint for which results will be displayed.
  • Selected Blueprint version. This defines the version of the blueprint for which results will be displayed.
  • Blueprint layer
  • Whether optional test case have been used
  • The overall outcome

The corresponding page is shown in Figure 8.

When the button ‘Get’ is clicked, the same workflow should be used as with the one described in the subsection 3.1.

3.4 Get results based on date

This sub-item should be selected when the results associated with the combination of the following data is needed:

  • This defines the lab in which validation results will be searched.
  • This defines the blueprint for which results will be displayed.
  • Selected Blueprint version. This defines the version of the blueprint for which results will be displayed.
  • Date of the result creation

The corresponding page is shown in Figure 9.

When the button ‘Get’ is clicked, the same workflow should be used as with the one described in the subsection 3.1.
