5G automation_Enabling Lab to Live Lifecycle automation

The benefits of CI/CD (continuous integration and continuous delivery) through DevOps adoption have been increasingly sought in today’s fast evolving technology landscape for the agility it offers development and the stability it provides to operations through the automation of the technology lifecycle. A growing number of leaders view CI/CD as the solution to help maintain their competitive edge. 

Too often overlooked in the big picture, however, is the importance of continuous testing (CT) to make all that possible. The compelling business benefits that flow from getting it right are significant: heightened productivity, accelerated speed to market, improved quality and substantial cost savings. The fundamental significance of effective CT and methods of fostering its success in an organization’s overall CI/CD strategy is the focus of this white paper. 


Effective continuous test (CT) and methods for a successful continuous integration / continuous delivery (CI/CD) strategy includes lab as a service, test as a service and DevOps and maintaining the option of a qualified solution partner.

The Criticality of Continuous Test for CI/CD Success

5G brings amazing new services and revenue models—but only if you can navigate the complexity that comes with it. Learn how over-the-air active testing at the network edge can help.

A new testing model is required to keep pace with the accelerating pace of 5G Standalone (SA) technology evolution to manage faster and more frequent multi-vendor releases. This involves leveraging DevOps and continuous integration and deployment (CI/CD) processes to achieve continuous test (CT) and ultimately continuous monitoring (CM).

Don’t Stand Alone, Part Two: Overcome the Challenges of 5G Standalone

The diversity of services and new 5G infrastructure demand greater operational flexibility and autonomy.  Operators must engineer their networks to provide the best possible experience and performance, working agilely to deploy new, desirable services.

Learn why traditional methods of assuring the network fall short with the revolutionary changes coming in 5G.

What Is the Difference Between Active and Passive Assurance?

As adoptions of 5G standalone core pick up speed, it is critical that a continuous security testing strategy be part of your plan, from the earliest stages of development. It’s essential to 5G’s success and paves the way for 6G.

As 5G standalone core adoptions increase, a continuous security testing strategy must be part of the earliest development stages. It’s critical to 5G’s success.

5G Standalone Core’s Foundational Role for New Telecom 

5G Standalone has the potential for new consumer and enterprise service offerings and the revenues that come with them. It adds up to an estimated $400 billion opportunity, enabled by new capabilities (slicing, disaggregation, services-based architectures).  But as many operators are discovering, turning those capabilities into monetizable services is no small task.
