-""" Represents the call which contains all methods needed to execute a TC
-    test. Currently five phases are defined:
-   1. Invokes the specified compiler on a provided p4 file.
-   2. Parses an stf file and generates a pcap output.
-   3. Loads the generated template nd the eBPF binaries
-   4. Feeds the generated pcap test packets into scapy
-   5. Evaluates the output with the expected result from the .stf file
