Performance Testing ResultsUnder Construction This following work is under construction so please bear with us as we write the content for this section. Comments would be appreciated. Performance Testing InitiativeThe is the beginning of a new performance testing initiative for the Fedora Repository and components integrated into Fedora Commons Framework. This work builds upon the superb performance tests and analysis performed by Fiz Karlsruhe and the performance testing included in each release of the Fedora Repository. We hope this will provide a common performance testing framework and begin a community effort to characterize Fedora performance to document best practices for configuration and identify bottlenecks for subsequent software development. Testing FrameworkPerformance testing will be accomplished using testbeds kindly provided by a number of community sources. Testing will also be accomplished using Cloud infrastructure such as Amazon's offerings. Details of the test configurations will be documented in this Wiki as the configurations are implemented. In most cases a test configuration will always consists of at least four parts:
Other typical components include:
A number of frameworks are used by the community including several home-grown test platforms. Two well supported open-source frameworks are Apache JMeter and The Grinder. Either are well suited for this purpose and have their proponents. In many cases tests written for one framework can easily be re-purposed for another. Hopefully, experience with more than one framework and tests from all will be shared here. Just as important is publication of test results and analyses. Testing Frameworks
