Update Network

Predefined network condition usage

def update_network(
    driver: TestUIDriver,
    network_mode: str,
    network_config: dict or None = None
) -> None

Updates network conditions for participant while the test is running.

The network_mode parameter specifies what network conditions should be used. Available network configurations and network_mode values can be found here or they can be accessed using constants.

network_config (optional) - parameter that specifies exact network conditioner field values.

caution

Custom network configuration is taken into effect only if provided network_mode is "custom".

Currently available custom network configuration metrics are:

Network parameter	Traffic direction	JSON key	Unit of measure	Min value	Max value
Bandwidth	Outgoing	rate_up	mbit	0
	Incoming	rate_down	mbit	0
Latency	Outgoing	latency_up	ms	0
	Incoming	latency_down	ms	0
Jitter	Outgoing	jitter_up	ms	0
	Incoming	jitter_down	ms	0
Packet loss	Outgoing	loss_up	%	0	100
	Incoming	loss_down	%	0	100

info

For custom network configuration jitter parameters must be defined together with latency. If jitter parameters are set without also defining latency parameters, then jitter configuration will not be applied.

info

The network parameters not defined in custom network configuration will be reset to their default values.
