Network virtualization may be used in application development and testing to mimic real-world hardware and system software. In application performance engineering , network virtualization enables emulation of connections between applications, services, dependencies, and end users for software testing.
In October 2012, a group of telecom operators published a white paper [4] at a conference in Darmstadt, Germany, on software-defined networking (SDN) and OpenFlow.The Call for Action concluding the White Paper led to the creation of the Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) Industry Specification Group (ISG) [5] within the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI).
The tools listed here support emulating [1] or simulating APIs and software systems. They are also called [2] API mocking tools, service virtualization tools, over the wire test doubles and tools for stubbing and mocking HTTP(S) and other protocols. [1] They enable component testing in isolation. [3]
Parasoft Virtualize is a service virtualization product that can create, deploy, and manage simulated test environments for software development and software testing purposes. These environments simulate the behavior of dependent resources that are unavailable, difficult to access, or difficult to configure for development or testing. [1]
Service virtualization emulates the behavior of software components to remove dependency constraints on development and testing teams. Such constraints occur in complex, interdependent environments when a component connected to the application under test is: Not yet completed; Still evolving; Controlled by a third-party or partner
Network Virtualization using Generic Routing Encapsulation (NVGRE) is a network virtualization technology that attempts to alleviate the scalability problems associated with large cloud computing deployments. It uses Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) to tunnel layer 2 packets over layer 3 networks. [1] Its principal backer is Microsoft. [2]
Application performance engineering attempts to test software before it is published. [2] [full citation needed] While practices vary among organizations, the method attempts to emulate the real-world conditions that software in development will confront, including network deployment and access by mobile devices.
Dataflow for communication payload leveraging network protocol virtualization software. Network Protocol Virtualization (NPV) was firstly proposed by Heuschkel et al. in 2015 as a rough sketch as part of a transition concept for network protocol stacks. [1] The concept evolved and was published in a deployable state in 2018. [2]
