Advanced Automation
Participate in our interactive workshop to learn how to use the open-source tool ANTA (Arista Network Test Automation), both independently and with AVD, to build a robust network testing strategy. Learn how to incorporate testing principles from software development into the network. By automating network fabric testing, you can guarantee that your network operates as intended. We will wrap up the day by building out a CI/CD pipeline for our network infrastructure with GitHub Actions.
