vac:dst:waku:waku-evaluation
Description
Test Waku on a regular basis and look for regressions, learn scaling properties and run scaling studies, understand the limits of Waku and its behaviour.
We want to learn specific, actionable information about Waku’s behaviour and how it is evolving over time with each new release and with each thing we are specifically asked to check and test.
We will use a combination of real world testing, theoretical analysis and simulation to determine and measure the success, side effects and other factors of Waku and its evolution.
We will support the Conduit of Expertise narrative directly by analysing and evaluating new Waku releases and their features, both with regards to features they have today and with regards to how that compares to past behaviour.
We will:
- Enable improvements to Waku by allowing for repeatable, measureable and real world insights into Waku, all the way from theory to practice and back.
- Reduce the risk of a Waku regression making it into a new release of Waku.
Additionally, these efforts will contribute to the Premier Research destination narrative by:
- Improving and strengthening our relationship with the Waku team and improving the quality and reputation of IFT’s work, inside and outside of Waku.
Regression testing (recurring)
- fully qualified name: vac:dst:waku:waku-evaluation:regression-testing
- owner: Alberto
- status: Ongoing
- start-date: 2024-10-01
- end-date: 2024-12-31
Description
Run different scenarios and collect evidence and data of Waku’s behaviour.
Test for known regressions that have occurred in the past and ensure they don’t happen again.
Deliverables
- Analysis done
- Report published with all relevant details
- Vac Roadmap updated regularly with links to the analysis and results.
