-72 Hours Stability Test of Distribution
-+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+72h Stability and 4h Performance Tests of 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).
+VM Details
+----------
 
-
-The test will be performed in an environment where Jmeter will continuously add/remove a test csar into the special directory where policy distribuion 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.
-
-Setup details
--------------
-
-The stability test is performed on VM's running in the OpenStack cloud environment in the ONAP integration lab. There are 2 separate VMs, one for running backend policy services which policy distribution needs, and the other is for policy distribution service itself and Jmeter.

+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 distribuion 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

 Setup Details
 -------------
 
 The performance test is based on the same setup as the distribution stability tests.
 
-Test Plan
----------
+
+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 then expect all policies from these csar's to be deployed within 30 seconds.
-Alongside these, there are multithreaded tests running towards the healtchcheck and statistics endpoints of the distribution service.
