A key driver towards this are mechanisms or methodologies to drive shorter time to market for suppliers and operators of virtual network functions (VNFs) and network services. 5GTANGO includes a DevOps approach that can be utilized for the validation and verification (V&V) of VNFs and network services. In this paper, we elaborate further on the approaches made in the areas of testing, catalogues and package management as a means to enable that full DevOps V&V workflow. Finally, we explore the deployment requirement of the V&V via one of our pilot use cases.
