Testing network or services during deployment (where there is little or no traffic) - increasingly important with new agile deployment of network functions.
Continuously monitoring end-to-end services spanning across physical and virtual networks and across multiple clouds and edge infrastructure - where passive monitoring would be very costly or impossible.
Providing visibility within and outside of the network to provide correlation between QoE and QoS and advanced fault isolation/analysis - again, difficult to achieve on virtual networks with passive monitoring.

Virtualized Network
Validation of VNFs and services as they are instantiated and activated - working with Cl/CD and DevOps environment - and avoiding the need for volumes of customer traffic to be flowing.
Proactive monitoring of the quality of networks and services prescribing actions such as the need for different tests to clarify the issue or rolling up of more capacity to alleviate issues as part of the full closed-loop automation of the network.
Automated Network
Allows checking of adherence to SLAs - allowing them to be guaranteed and actively validated.
Measurement against benchmarks defined at the start of the service.
Proactive monitoring and remediation of potential issues.
Monitoring of applications that need performance monitoring at L3, L4 and L7.
