Getting Started With pyATs, Interop 2020
Claudia de Luna, Indigo Wire Networks
As the landscape of automation tools and modules grows, it may be difficult to know where to start and what to use. PyATS is a Python based Test Automation and Validation Framework originally developed by Cisco (but now open and extensible to any vendor) to parse device output and test network topologies. Initially developed for testing & assurance, pyATS gives you a flexible framework you can easily use across many phases of the common network lifecycle.
This session will look at some examples of how pyATS can get you started quickly acting on multiple devices in a network topology and automatically parsing output, baselining state, and testing the state of "relationships" between those devices. We will also look at some advanced capabilities such as integration with the Robot Framework and its easy to read Dashboard.
