Claim 0:
1. A method comprising:
receiving, by a computing system, data indicative of a declarative testing descriptor for active testing of a virtualized service, wherein the declarative testing descriptor comprises one or more intent-based inputs that express a desired device or control flow configuration without imperative instructions;
obtaining, from an orchestration layer, metadata associated with the virtualized service, wherein the metadata specifies a unique name for the virtualized service within a namespace of a cluster managed by the orchestration layer;
providing labels in a custom resource that defines inputs of a test agent, wherein the labels are defined as objects within the metadata;
determining, by the computing system using the declarative testing descriptor and the metadata, an active testing configuration for an instance of the virtualized service, wherein the active testing configuration includes placement of the test agent, and wherein determining the active testing configuration includes matching the test agent to the virtualized service by matching the labels against labels of objects within the cluster;
starting an active test by sending active test packets with the test agent according to the active testing configuration; and
determining service level violations for the instance of the virtualized service based on a result of the active test.
