Abstract
A network automation system platform is described herein for carrying out a method for automated multi-node performance validation testing on a communications network. The method includes acquiring a test configuration for executing a multi-node performance validation test, wherein the test configuration identifies: a multi-node network performance test, carried out by an application layer, that specifies a technology-independent test script that is generic to particular technologies for providing performance validation-related services, and a node group upon which the multi-node network performance test is to be performed. The method further includes executing the multi-node network performance validation test by the application layer issuing requests to a core layer comprising a set of technology-specific services that issue, in accordance with the application layer requests, technology-specific commands to external services during performance validation of nodes within the node group.
