# 1. Introduction #
Currently 1 build variant can be directly tested:
* Physical Simulators
In addition, 2 build variants are used:
* OAI eNB with ETHERNET transport
* OAI UE with ETHERNET transport
for the following scenarios:
* L1 simulator w/ a channel simulator (NOT IMPLEMENTED)
* RF simulator : (IMPLEMENTED but not working as of 2019.w15)
* L2 nFAPI simulator
Tests are run sequentially in the Jenkins pipeline because:
* We want to mutualize the VM creation for an EPC
* We have seen performance issues when running in parallel.

Note that the VM instance is destroyed. You do that when you are sure your test is passing.
## 3.2. Test the RF simulator ##
```bash
./ci-scripts/oai-ci-vm-tool test --workspace /var/jenkins/workspace/RAN-CI-develop --variant rf-sim --job-name RAN-CI-develop --build-id 48 --keep-vm-alive
15:24:45 Currently RF-Simulator Testing is not implemented / enabled
