Issue Description

Many of the scripts use ceil() or int() to find some approximate values. This sometimes results in unnecessary failures. One example is below:

        background_loss = 0
        for row in rows:
            if 'Test Flow' in row.name:
                pytest_assert(int(row.loss) == 0, "FAIL: {} must have 0% loss".format(row.name))
            elif 'Background Flow' in row.name:
                background_loss += float(row.loss)
>       pytest_assert(int(background_loss/4) == 10, "Each Background Flow must have an avg of 10% loss ")
E       Failed: Each Background Flow must have an avg of 10% loss

background_loss = 39.998999999999995
row        = <snappi.snappi.FlowMetric object at 0x7f90adb90d40>
rows       = <snappi.snappi.FlowMetricIter object at 0x7f90adce1340>
rx_port    = {'api_server_ip': '172.27.147.46', 'asic_type': 'cisco-8000', 'asic_value': 'asic0', 'card_id': '1', ...}
tx_port    = [{'api_server_ip': '172.27.147.46', 'asic_type': 'cisco-8000', 'asic_value': 'asic0', 'card_id': '1', ...}, {'api_server_ip': '172.27.147.46', 'asic_type': 'cisco-8000', 'asic_value': 'asic0', 'card_id': '1', ...}]

snappi_tests/multidut/pfc/files/m2o_fluctuating_lossless_helper.py:418: Failed

As we can see, the background_loss value is nearly 40, but the int() call changes it to 9 instead of 10, and above check fails. We should use round() function as below:

>>> background_loss = 39.998999999999995
>>> int(background_loss/4)
9
>>> round(background_loss/4)
10
>>>

Results you see

Test fails on approximate calculations.

Results you expected to see

The test should pass.

Is it platform specific

generic
