In the Generate OAM Tests form that opens, choose a Test type.

The list of templates in the Template field is updated based on your selection.

Choose a test template if needed.

If a template is not selected, an appropriate system template is automatically selected based on the value of the execute type field. If a template is selected, the value of the execute type field is imported from the template and is read-only in the form.

Add one or more entities:

1. Choose an entity type from the Entity type drop down.

2. Click SELECT to open a selection form.

3. Choose one or more entity objects from the list to add them to the Bin. Use the page selectors to navigate the list.

4. Verify the list of entity objects in the Bin and click SELECT.

5. To change the list of selected entities, repeat the previous steps to re-create the list.

Note: For test suites involving IP Edge NEs, 7705 SAR and 7210 SAS, the entity type must be MEP. See What test types are available for a specific NE? for supported test types on IP Edge NEs.

Click on the Service field if applicable:

1. Select an attribute in the drop-down list, then enter values for that attribute in the field. As you type, the list is filtered for entities that match your input.

2. Click as required to add additional filter criteria.

3. Choose entities from the list and click SELECT.

Configure the test parameters as needed.

The test suite name must be unique.

Generate the test suite:

1. To automatically execute the test suite after generation, enable Execute and click GENERATE & EXECUTE.
