    protocols=["diameter", "map"],
    cloud_platform="aws"
)

# Run integration tests
results = env.run_tests(
    test_suite="full",
    parallel=True
)

Performance Testing¶

from telcoapi.testing import LoadTest

test = LoadTest(
    target="diameter_peer",
    duration=3600,
    users=1000,
    ramp_up=300
)

# Run load test
results = test.run()
print(f"Average response time: {results.avg_response_time}ms")
print(f"Transactions per second: {results.tps}")

Troubleshooting¶

Common Issues¶

1. Connection Problems
2. Check network connectivity
3. Verify firewall rules

4. Validate certificates

5. Protocol Errors

6. Check protocol configuration

12. Review connection pools

Debugging Tools¶

from telcoapi.debug import ProtocolAnalyzer

analyzer = ProtocolAnalyzer(
    protocol="diameter",
    capture_file="debug.pcap"
)

# Analyze protocol messages
analysis = analyzer.analyze()
print(f"Message flow: {analysis.message_flow}")
print(f"Error patterns: {analysis.error_patterns}")
