I have a test tool that I've been using for a while that simulates user
activity using the OpenAFS client.
It has been on my list of things to do to share it with the community for
some time but before doing so, I'd like to hear what, if anything, the
community might like to see in such a tool.
At the moment, it's a Visual Studio 2005 project. The GUI is a dialog box
with buttons and a activity log window. It's not very complicated.
It uses a (or several, selectable) test config files to specify target
directories and then launches N threads to write/read/verify random data to
the targets specified in the config files. The threads all run with
different activity intervals so over time, you have periods of either
nothing happening or everything happening all at once. It's built to support
various types of activity threads but at the moment, there's only one
implemented.
It works well enough for my purposes but I'd need to 'finish' the user
interface a bit for general usage. And document it. That'd be pretty easy
really. (And kinda fun.)
If there is interest, I'll get SNA to host a download spot for the source
zip.
Comments welcome.
Regards,
Mickey.
