ANTA is Python framework that automates tests for Arista devices.

  • ANTA provides a set of tests to validate the state of your network
  • ANTA can be used to:
    • Automate NRFU (Network Ready For Use) test on a preproduction network
    • Automate tests on a live network (periodically or on demand)
  • ANTA can be used with:

anta nrfu

Install ANTA library

The library will NOT install the necessary dependencies for the CLI.

# Install ANTA as a library
pip install anta

Install ANTA CLI

If you plan to use ANTA only as a CLI tool you can use pipx to install it. pipx is a tool to install and run python applications in isolated environments. Refer to pipx instructions to install on your system. pipx installs ANTA in an isolated python environment and makes it available globally.

This is not recommended if you plan to contribute to ANTA

# Install ANTA CLI with pipx
$ pipx install anta[cli]

# Run ANTA CLI
$ anta --help
Usage: anta [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...
