• The goal of the Functionality Freeze is to mark the end of adding functionality in the Release.
• After Functionality Freeze, no new visible functionality is to be added to the current ONAP release.
• The API definition development activities is over and a stable document describing the API is documented and available to the community.
• At Functionality Freeze, the following activities have been achieved:
  • All committed functionalities have been coded.
  • All Test Cases covering the scope of the release are defined (Project Team).
  • CSIT All Test Case Cases acceptance criteria are defined (Project Team).
  • All code have automated unit test (Project Team).
  • The team is using the complete Linux Foundation environment (build, Jenkins, Gerrit, FOSS, Automated Unit Test, Nexus).
  • A defined and documented final list of externally consumable APIs is available.
  • All vendors equipments have been delivered (Integration team)

To Pass Functionality Freeze, the PTL must:

1. Fill out in project space the Deliverables for Functionality Freeze Milestone template
2. Inform the TSC Chair and the Release Manager prior to the milestone on the availability of the deliverable

After Functionality Freeze is passed, the team focus on:

• Feature Test Cases:
  
  • Define Feature Test plan.
  • Define Acceptance criteria.
  • Automate and execute the Feature test.
  • Prioritize defects and address at least all critical and blocking defects.

All defects must be entered into Jira.

• The goal of the API Freeze is to ensure API and Data Model are Frozen.
• At API Freeze, API stubs must be in implemented.
• All provisional APIs are at least functional (at a beta-quality level) if not yet fully tested.
  
• At Functionality Freeze, the following activities have been achieved:
  
  • All externally accessible APIs & data models may not be modified. An API exception process will allow for critical changes to APIs after API Freeze.
  • Any Changes to the API must be brought to the knowledge of the TSC for review and approval. APIs include, but are not limited to, all Java classes/interfaces declared public, all YANG models, all TOSCA profiles, all config file YANG schemas, and all REST/RESTCONF calls including the full URL with options.
  • 50% of
  CSIT
  • Test
  case complete
  • Cases are automated (Project Team).
  • Issues brought to TSC or Architecture Coordinator.

Prior to Architecture review, Project teams must also review APIs with the Architecture Committee (ARC)TSC or Architecture Coordinator.

To pass Architecture review, the PTL must:

1. Fill out in project space the Deliverables for Architecture API Freeze Milestone template
2. Inform the TSC Chair and the Release Manager prior to the milestone on the availability of the deliverable

• The goal of the Code Freeze is to mark the end of the Features coding and testing and the resolution of all impacting defects (at least all Critical and Blocking defects)
• After Code Freeze, no new features/functionality are to be allowed into the current release. Only defects identified in the Jira system are allowed. The exceptions to this include new tests, and documentation.
• Defects found after Code Freeze are still defects and they may be created and worked on. This includes packaging and installation defects found as well.
• At Functionality Freeze, the following activities have been achieved:
  • • End 2 End Continuous Integration Use Case (CSIT) is implemented Release Test Case is automated (Integration Team).
    • 50% 100% of CSIT Test case complete Case are automated (Project Team).
    • The Labs are ready for ONAP testing. All OSs, VMs, VIMs, VNFs and hardware are installed and tested (Integration Team).
    • Installation guide for each deliverables are available for review.

After Code Freeze is passed, the team focus on:

• Integration Testing
  • Coordinate with central Integration Team to ensure end to end Integration testing is understood, complete and prepare a plan for Integration Testing review
  • Refine Integration Test plan
  • Refine Acceptance criteria
  • Start automating and executing end to end Integration testing

• • all test cases are stitched.

• The goal of the Integration review is to ensure proper alignment and execution on:

1. 1. end 2 end Test Cases (stitched test case) integration testing for all projects participating in an ONAP release.
   2. end 2 end Release Test Case.

• At that point, a fully-built, complete version of the current ONAP release is available. This includes all code,

• packaging and

• deployment that make up the final user-deliverable set of artifacts.

• Integration plan is further reviewed to ensure it covers correct API calls and data models between projects, alignment with use case and test framework.
• After RC0, new RCs will be continually built, e.g., once per day, to enable rapid testing and fixing of defects. 

• Issues brought to TSC.

• At RC1

• the

• Training Materials are available for review

1. Fill out in their Project Space the Deliverables for RCx Milestone template
2. Inform the TSC Chair and the Release Manager prior to the milestone on the availability of the deliverable

After Integration review is passed, the team focus on:

• Executing the Integration Plan.
• Prioritizing new defects and address them. In case there are blocking defects preventing the team to execute according to the plan, the defect must be fixed and a new full build made available.
• Reviewing and polishing documentation.
• Prepare activities to reach Release Sign-Off.

• The goal of the Release Sign-Off review is to ensure that:
  • The project has successfully passed all previous reviews.
  • All committed deliverables are available and reach reached expected quality criteria.
  • All testing activities are complete and successful.
  • All documentation activities are complete and available.
  • All Training Materials are complete and available.
  • All blocking issues have been successfully addressed (otherwise there is no reason to hold the review).
• These above statements are the conditions for the release to be included in the ONAP target release.
• TSC formally provides its disposition.
