Week 13 Updates

Hello Everyone,

Now I'm able to run the basic longevity test on the VMs development environment and currently working on the improvement features to the basic Longevity test suite. I have pushed two changes to the upstream, one of which has been merged.

I have also made a wiki page on this project "Longevity test for OpenDaylight". Please see the link to the wikipage here.

Though the internship period has ended, I'll still be working on this project as an active contributor of the OpenDaylight community.

Cheers,
Nitika

Week 11 and 12 Upates

Hello Everyone,

As I got the resources increased on one of the VMs (on which ODL controller is installed), I tried to run the longevity test suite, one of which finally passed. Firstly, I tried to run the test suite with two switches and one node link.

Also, I have been having a hard time last week due to which I was not able to concentrate on the project work. I had a discussion with the mentor on the further task and currently working on the improvement of the longevity test suite.

Please see the below mentioned things on which I'm currently working to improve the longevity test suite:

- Add a check for NullPointer exceptions.
- Check that the threads are not leaking.


Cheers,
Nitika Agarwal

Week 10 @Opendaylight Summit 2015

Hello Everyone,

Last week, I have been attending the OpenDaylight summit 2015. Thanks for providing the interns with an opportunity to meet the community and developers in person.

It was really a nice experience to meet my mentors and other developers. It was a great learning overall and learnt a lot after attending the Application Development tutorial sessions and other user tutorial sessions. In the Developer forum sessions, I learnt about other ODL projects as well and looking forward to work on other integration projects as well.

During the summit, we had two reception parties which provided us with an opportunity to meet with the community members. We also had an Intern / Mentor meeting in which we discuss our experience while working on the project. Overall, it was a great experience for me to attend the ODL summit.

Cheers,
Nitika Agarwal
