ORAN

ABot can validate & analyze DU, CU, RIC or SMO stacks in an automated manner. It facilitates in-depth control, data and management plane validation.

ABot can simulate any missing Network Functions to build a wraparound topology and test the DUT(s). It comes with ORAN Alliance-compliant test cases written in easy-to-understand English-like language.

High-level Benefits for SIs, OEMs & Operators

System Integrators

A ORAN validation platform to test interoperability scenarios seamlessly at the pre & post deployment phase with multi-vendor NFs across different distributed networks.

OEMs

Facilitate wraparound testing encompassing the OEM’s DUTs and validate the DUTs performance against different scenarios and deployment models like – MEC/Edge.

Operators

Enables continuous E2E and integration testing. Helps operators do network audits and scale-test for planning and scaling purposes. Build customized ready-to-use test suite for zero-touch continuous test assurance.
