Abstract:
1. A method for testing a server with mixed workloads, where multiple clients serving as agents and a controlling device are connected with a server under test via a network, said method comprising steps of: developing one or more workload case configure utilities corresponding to one or more workload cases, each of said utilities implementing a workload case configure utility interface; developing one or more workload engines corresponding to one or more workload cases, each of said engines implementing a workload engine interface; said controlling device configuring woridoad cases by calling corresponding ones of said workload case configure utilities through said workload case configure utility interface, and transferring the information collected during the configure process to corresponding agents; each of said agents controlling a corresponding workload engine through said workload engine interface to generate multiple kinds of workload requests by using the information collected during the configure process, and sends concurrently sendinag said requests to the server; and, said controlling device collecting response information from all the agents, and generating test results.
