### Justification


### Deliverables

- Created [new framework](https://github.com/status-im/status-cli-tests) that:
  - builds and runs nodes using status cli tool
  - provides API to interact with different features
  - runs tests for all requested features:
    - contact_request
    - create_private_groups
    - fetch_community
    - join_community
    - leave_community
    - one_to_one_messages
    - private_group_messages
  - reuses communities to not clout the staging env
  - runs each night on status master branch
  - generates test report with history: https://status-im.github.io/status-cli-tests/122/
  - found multiple issues that are under investgation by Pablo
- Ability to simulate for all the above scenarios:
  - Latency
  - Packet loss
  - Low bandwith
  - Hybernation
