This commit removes all DUA (Domain Unicast Address) validation
and verification steps from test_firewall.py. Since DUA routing
features are being phased out or removed, this keeps the firewall
test in sync and prevents potential failures during test runs.
Specifically:
- Removed DUA ping validation from host to router.
- Removed DUA collection call (collect_duas).
- Removed the packet verifier checks checking for DUA ping traffic.
This commit removes the test_ping.py test file from the
thread-cert test suite.
The ping functionality tested by this file is already
well covered by existing Nexus tests (e.g.,
test_ipv6_source_selection.cpp, test_radio_filter.cpp),
so this file is no longer needed.
This commit migrates the test_history_tracker.py test
from the thread-cert test suite to the Nexus test
framework as a new C++ test.
The new C++ test, test_history_tracker.cpp, covers:
- Role changes (detached -> leader -> disabled)
- NetInfo age up to 49 days
- Child mode Rn changes
- Ping between leader and child, verifying message
types, checksums, priority, and success flags
It directly uses HistoryTracker::Local methods instead
of the C APIs.
This commit migrates the functionality covered by
`tests/scripts/thread-cert/test_radio_filter.py` to a new Nexus test
`tests/nexus/test_radio_filter.cpp`.
The new test covers:
- Initial state of radio filter (disabled).
- Enabling radio filter on Router blocks pings.
- Disabling radio filter on Router restores pings.
- Enabling radio filter on SED causes it to detach.
- Disabling radio filter on SED allows it to reattach.
To make the test pass in Nexus, the following fixes were applied:
- Set external poll period to 40ms for SED to receive ping replies.
- Forced parent search on SED using `BecomeChild()` to avoid long
backoff interval.
The energy scan portion of the original test is skipped because
`otPlatRadioEnergyScan` is not implemented in the Nexus platform.
The original Python test file is removed.
This commit migrates the functionality covered by
`tests/scripts/thread-cert/test_coaps.py` to a new Nexus test
`tests/nexus/test_coaps.cpp`.
The new test covers:
- CoAP Secure with PSK.
- CoAP Secure with X.509 certificates.
The X509 test is conditionally compiled based on
`MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_ECDHE_ECDSA_ENABLED`.
The original Python test file is removed.
This commit migrates the functionality covered by test_coap_observe.py
to the Nexus test framework.
- Enabled OPENTHREAD_CONFIG_COAP_OBSERVE_API_ENABLE in Nexus config.

notifications in a simulated network.
- Handled edge cases in the test to avoid segfaults during cancel
response processing.
- Removed the old Python test test_coap_observe.py.
This commit migrates the functionality covered by test_coap_block.py
to the Nexus test framework.
- Enabled OPENTHREAD_CONFIG_COAP_BLOCKWISE_TRANSFER_ENABLE in Nexus
config.

transfers in a simulated network.
- Removed the old Python test test_coap_block.py.
This commit migrates the test_ping_lla_src.py script from thread-cert
to the Nexus test framework.
The new test_ping_lla_src.cpp implements the same test logic:
- Forms a network with a Leader and two Routers.
- Verifies that pings using a Link-Local Address (LLA) as the source
succeed when sent to a neighbor's Mesh-Local EID (ML-EID).
- Verifies that pings using an LLA source fail when sent to a
non-neighbor's ML-EID, as LLAs are only valid for single-hop
communication.
- Verifies that external routes are not used for LLA-sourced packets.
To support this migration, the Nexus Core class was enhanced with:
- Overloads for SendAndVerifyEchoRequest that allow specifying a
source address.
- New SendAndVerifyNoEchoResponse methods to verify that no echo
response is received (useful for negative test scenarios).
Changes:
- Added tests/nexus/test_ping_lla_src.cpp
- Updated tests/nexus/CMakeLists.txt to include the new test.
- Enhanced tests/nexus/platform/nexus_core.hpp/cpp with new helpers.
- Removed tests/scripts/thread-cert/test_ping_lla_src.py.
This commit migrates the 'test_pbbr_aloc.py' script from the
thread-cert framework to the Nexus simulation framework.

added to and removed from the nodes' unicast addresses.
- Confirms reachability of the ALOCs using ICMPv6 Echo Requests
from all nodes in the network.
- Ensures ALOCs become unreachable after the service is removed
from the network data.
Changes:
- Added tests/nexus/test_service.cpp
- Updated tests/nexus/CMakeLists.txt to include the new test.
- Removed tests/scripts/thread-cert/test_service.py.

within a single process, improving CI efficiency.
Removed:
- tests/scripts/thread-cert/test_srp_server_anycast_mode.py
Migrate legacy Python test `test_reset.py` to Nexus C++ test
`test_reset.cpp`.
The test verifies that OpenThread correctly recovers network state,
specifically frame counters and datasets, after sequential resets of
nodes in a multi-hop topology (Leader <-> Router <-> ED).
The test sequence:
- Establish multi-hop topology: Leader <-> Router <-> ED.
- Send 1010 pings from ED to Leader to advance the frame counter
beyond the default storage threshold (1000).
- Reset Leader, Router, and ED sequentially.
- Verify end-to-end connectivity after resets, confirming that frame
counters were correctly recovered from non-volatile storage.
Legacy `tests/scripts/thread-cert/test_reset.py` is removed as its
functionality is now fully covered by the Nexus test.

now fully covered by the new Nexus test.
This commit migrates the `test_ipv6_fragmentation.py` cert test to the
Nexus simulation framework.
To support this migration, the Nexus core configuration was updated to
enable IPv6 fragmentation (`OPENTHREAD_CONFIG_IP6_FRAGMENTATION_ENABLE`).
The new Nexus test `test_ipv6_fragmentation.cpp` covers the validation
of IPv6 fragmentation and reassembly. It sends large ICMPv6 Echo
Requests exceeding the 1280-byte MTU between a Leader and a Router:
- 1952 bytes payload from Leader to Router

now fully covered by the new Nexus test.
This commit migrates the dns_client_config_auto_start test from the
thread-cert Python-based test framework to the Nexus C++ simulation
framework.
The new Nexus test (test_dns_client_config_auto_start.cpp) verifies:
- DNS client uses the SRP server address automatically when no
explicit config is set.
- Explicitly set DNS config takes precedence over auto-discovered
SRP server address.
- Clearing an explicit DNS config allows the client to fall back to
the auto-discovered SRP server address.
- DNS client updates its default config when the SRP server changes.
Changes:
- Added tests/nexus/test_dns_client_config_auto_start.cpp
- Updated tests/nexus/CMakeLists.txt to build the new test

is rejected by the Leader, it correctly remains a child while
maintaining its Service ALOC.
The original Python script is removed as its functionality is now
fully covered by the Nexus implementation.
This commit migrates the functionality of the Python-based certification
test 'test_br_upgrade_router_role.py' to a new Nexus-based C++ test
'test_br_upgrade_router_role.cpp'.
The test verifies that Border Routers (BRs) providing IP connectivity
are eligible to request a router role upgrade even when the active
router count already meets the 'router_upgrade_threshold'.
Key test steps:
- Set router upgrade threshold to 2.
- Ensure three BRs remain in child role when 2 routers already exist.
- Verify BRs upgrade to router role when they provide external routes
or prefixes, up to the limit of 2 BR routers.
- Verify that a third BR providing external routes remains a child.
- Verify that removing a route from one BR router triggers the child BR
to upgrade to a router.
The Python test is removed as it is now covered by the Nexus test.
This commit migrates the test for zero-length external routes from a
Python script to the Nexus test framework. The original test was
test_zero_len_external_route.py in tests/scripts/thread-cert.
The new Nexus test test_zero_len_external_route.cpp replicates the
original test scenario:
- Forms a network with a Leader and two Routers.
- Verifies that adding a zero-length external route "::/0" on a Router
allows routing to a manually added IPv6 address on that Router.
- Verifies that explicit external routes are preferred over on-mesh
prefixes that have the default route flag set.
- Verifies that removing the external route causes traffic to be
re-routed (and in this case, fail as intended when the destination
is moved).
- Verifies that moving the address to another Router with a default
route flag allows successful routing.
This commit also fixes a bug in Core::SendAndVerifyEchoRequest in
nexus_core.cpp where the ICMP handler was not always unregistered,
especially when failures occurred. This fix ensures that subsequent
handler registrations in the same process do not fail with
kErrorAlready.
Migrating to Nexus provides faster execution and better integration with
the core OpenThread codebase.
This commit migrates the `test_ipv6_source_selection.py` cert test to
the Nexus simulation framework.
To support this migration, the Nexus framework was extended to allow
verifying the local (source) address on which an ICMP Echo Reply is
received. This is achieved by adding an overload to
`SendAndVerifyEchoRequest` that accepts an expected source address.
The new Nexus test `test_ipv6_source_selection.cpp` covers the
following scenarios:
- RLOC source for RLOC destination
- ML-EID source for ALOC destination
- ML-EID source for ML-EID destination
- Link-local source for Link-local destination
- ML-EID source for Realm-local multicast destination (ff03::1)
- GUA source for GUA destination
- GUA source for external address (via default route)
The original Python test script is removed as its functionality is now
fully covered by the new Nexus test.
This commit migrates the certification test for router downgrade on
security policy change from a Python script to the Nexus test framework.
The original test was test_router_downgrade_on_sec_policy_change.py in
tests/scripts/thread-cert.
The new Nexus test test_router_downgrade_on_sec_policy_change.cpp
replicates the original test scenario:
- Forms a network with a Leader and a Router.
- Verifies that both nodes are in the expected router/leader roles.
- Changes the security policy to disable 'R' bit (routers) and sets the
version threshold to 7.
- Verifies that the Leader and Router do not immediately downgrade,
respecting the mandatory 10-second delay.
- Verifies that restoring the original security policy before the
timeout cancels the pending downgrade.
- Verifies that re-applying the security policy change leads to both
nodes eventually downgrading to the detached state once the version
threshold and router disable flags are propagated and the timer
expires.
Migrating to Nexus provides faster execution using virtual time and a
more integrated environment for debugging core Thread logic.
This commit migrates the dataset_updater functional test from the
Python-based thread-cert framework to the Nexus simulation framework.
Nexus provides faster and more scalable network simulations within a
single process using virtual time.
The new test_dataset_updater.cpp covers:
- Network formation and child joining (MED and SED).
- Channel updates initiated by Leader and Router using DatasetUpdater.
- Dataset update overrides between nodes.
The legacy tests/scripts/thread-cert/test_dataset_updater.py is removed
as it is now redundant.
This commit adds a new Nexus test to verify that a Sleepy End Device
(SED) correctly informs its previous parent after reattaching to a new
parent. This replicates the functionality of the now-deleted
test_inform_previous_parent_on_reattach.py script.
The test scenario involves:
- Forming a network with a Leader and a Router.
- Attaching a SED to the Leader.
- Simulating a link failure between the SED and Leader while allowing
communication between the SED and Router.
- Verifying that the SED reattaches to the Router.
- Confirming that the SED sends an empty IPv6 message (Next Header 59)
to the Leader's RLOC to inform it of the change.
- Ensuring the SED is successfully removed from the Leader's child
table.
Migrating this test to Nexus allows for faster execution using virtual
time and single-process simulation.
The following SRP test scripts in tests/scripts/thread-cert are
redundant as their functionality is now covered by the Nexus test
framework certification suite (test_1_3_SRP_TC_*):
- test_srp_register_single_service.py: Covered by Nexus
test_1_3_SRP_TC_1.
- test_srp_lease.py: Covered by Nexus test_1_3_SRP_TC_3 (service
lease) and test_1_3_SRP_TC_4 (key lease).
- test_srp_name_conflicts.py: Covered by Nexus test_1_3_SRP_TC_2.
- test_srp_auto_host_address.py: Covered by Nexus test_1_3_SRP_TC_13.
- test_srp_sub_type.py: Covered by Nexus test_1_3_SRP_TC_15.
Nexus tests are preferred as they run in a single process using
virtual time, making them faster and more reliable than the
multi-process simulation scripts.
The following test scripts in tests/scripts/thread-cert are now
redundant as their functionality is sufficiently covered by the Nexus
test framework:
- test_detach.py: Covered by Nexus MLE synchronization and parent
selection tests.
- test_router_upgrade.py: Covered by 5.1.x Nexus router attachment
tests.
Nexus tests are preferred for these scenarios as they execute in a
single process using virtual time, providing faster and more reliable
verification than the traditional multi-process simulation scripts.
This commit removes the following legacy 1.2 certification test scripts:
- tests/scripts/thread-cert/v1_2_router_5_1_1.py
- tests/scripts/thread-cert/v1_2_test_parent_selection.py
It also removes the 'packet-verification-1-1-on-1-4' job from the
Simulation 1.4 workflow as it is no longer required.
This commit implements the Nexus test specification 1_4_PIC_TC_4

- Offers IPv4 internet connectivity to Thread devices using NAT64.
- Offers IPv4 local network connectivity to Thread devices.
- Operates a DNS recursive resolver to look up IPv4 server addresses.
New files added:
- tests/nexus/test_1_4_PIC_TC_4.cpp: C++ test execution script
- tests/nexus/verify_1_4_PIC_TC_4.py: Python pcap verification script
Integration:
- Updated tests/nexus/CMakeLists.txt to compile the test.
