INTERNET, WIRELESS AND LEGACY INTEGRATION - Architectural Framework for Testing

Abstract

Voice and data networks require performing components of highest quality. To achieve these goals software engineering employs testing. However, software performance and performance testing have been less studied and reported on. We present here the test-bed developed and used in performance and stability testing of the intelligent networks integration infrastructure. We used the Visper framework for rapid distributed application development to build our test-bed. We also report on common programming problems that have been identified in multiple applications written in Java, and on the experience with our test-bed. Our findings are based on the work and feedback provided by experienced professionals with a solid object-oriented background. Their experience with Java and J2EE was mixed, while the test-bed and the concepts of distributed programming were new to everyone involved.
