The test does not progress because it detects an NPE exception in the log. The ERROR is thrown after this:
2021-01-11T10:38:16,125 | INFO | epollEventLoopGroup-9-1 | SystemNotificationsListenerImpl | 302 - org.opendaylight.openflowplugin.impl - 0.12.0.SNAPSHOT | ConnectionEvent: Connection closed by device, Device:/10.30.170.59:45900, NodeId:nullThe above happens every time mininet is started and it is the result of a mininet controller check (telnet to the controller OFP port) as shown in the mininet log:

After fixing the obvious problems with flow/group handling, longevity suite fails very quickly on:
