Accurate, objective functional testing is crucial for all network nodes and services
Ensuring the smooth launch and update of network services is dependent on functional testing programmes that validate performance for agile delivery models
Functional testing enables you to validate service performance and isolate issues
Logical, planned test programmes accelerate delivery
Functional testing is a key discipline that drives continuous quality assurance for new services and when introducing updates to functional entities and nodes. It enables you to detect and rectify faults before they are introduced to the network, protecting subscriber experience and ensuring consistent performance, reducing OPEX costs.
Ensure consistency with functional testing programmes
Quality control is required, throughout the service lifecycle for outstanding experiences
With today’s increasingly diverse service portfolio and multiple generations of technology existing in parallel, coordinated functional testing is essential to ensure that services can be delivered as expected and meet the requisite performance levels. A comprehensive functional test programme allows every aspect of a service to be validated, step-by-step – in isolation and end-to-end.
Functional Testing
Validate control and user plane interfaces
Services must be tested across each required interface to ensure interoperability with existing network elements.
Model service characteristics
Service permutations and the experience delivered must be validated for consistent delivery to subscribers.
Run pre-launch programmes
Functional compliance before and after deployment is key to successful service launches and sustained assurance.
Ensure continuous delivery and updates
Agile operations and delivery models must be backed by functional testing for each new release.
