This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to automating and testing communication network topologies. A method may include identifying templates of respective communication network topologies defining network devices, connections between the network devices, roles for the network devices, and performance tests for the communication network topologies; selecting a first template; instantiating an instance to generate a first communication network topology by establishing first connections between first network devices based on the first communication network topology and first roles of first network devices of the first communication network topology; generating performance test results for the first communication network topology based on performance of first performance tests defined by the first template, wherein first test thresholds of the first performance tests are based on a machine learning model trained based on the communication network topologies and the performance tests; and modifying the first test thresholds based on the performance test results.
