Debugging failure of a service validation test

Abstract

The present disclosure generally discloses a testing capability related to service testing in a communication network. The testing capability may be configured to support debugging of failures identified during service validation testing of a service in a communication network. The testing capability may be configured to support debugging of failures (e.g., transmission failures or the like) associated with a failed service validation test (e.g., a transmission verification test or the like). The testing capability may be configured to support debugging of failures identified during service validation testing of an Ethernet service. The testing capability may be configured to support debugging of failures (e.g., frame loss or the like) identified during service validation testing of an Ethernet service where the service validation testing of the Ethernet service is performed based on International Telecommunication Union (ITU)-Standardization (ITU-T) Y.1564, which is an Ethernet-based service activation test methodology.
