1. A method for performing cellular network testing, the method comprising:
creating a test environment based on a production cellular network;
defining a test for the cellular network within the test environment;
performing the test within the test environment;
logging an issue that indicates that a performance metric of the cellular network within the test environment was not met;
analyzing the logged issue and the test environment to identify a component responsible for the performance metric not being met; and
modifying the cellular network as implemented in the test environment.
