Automated tests?!

[gurjeet]

Are there any automated tests part of this repository? Perhaps there's an external OpenFlow testing framework that can be launched against Cherry controller to test it!

I am interested in providing Postgres support to this project, so I'd like to see docs around how to set up and run tests against Cherry.

Unfortunately, we don't have automated tests yet. Could you please lead me to the testing framework you mentioned?

Mininet seems to be ideally suited for testing any of the components of an SDN setup. I found the following links that Cherry can use to automate testing via Mininet:

@gurjeet Thanks. Actually, I tested Cherry using Mininet, but I didn't make it automatic. Now, I have a plan to do this and also very welcome a contribution from others. :-)
