Awesome! I gave a presentation on CI/CD for networking last year at the Interop conference; my demo was based on Gitlab https://gitlab.com/plumbis/cumulus-ci-cd/ I use Behave for testing, but it is just a front end for python code under the hood to actually validate that everything is doing what

We are pretty new to those new-age network orchestrators and automation, I am curious to ask what everyone is the community is doing? sorry for such a long and broad question. What is your workflow? What tools are your teams using? What is working what is not? What do you really like and what do
