The test can be configured to change: + +1) The number of suppliers connected to the event service. +2) The number of consumers connected to the event service. +3) The types of events generated by the suppliers and the consumer + subscriptions. +4) The event payload size. +5) The number of events generated. +6) Events are sent in "burst", i.e. a number of events is + generated without any pacing, the user can prescribe the number of + events in each burst as well as the period between bursts. + + There are two versions of the test, a collocated version, +contained in the ECT_Throughput executable. The non-collocated +version uses the event channel executable in the ../../Event_Service +direction, and two local binaries (ECT_Consumer and +ECT_Supplier). Both versions require a Naming Service. + + To run the test you can use (as usual) the run_test.pl script +on this directory. If you want to manually run the tests here are +some examples, usually each one of the commands below is executed on +its own window: + +# Run the collocated test using the default configuration: +$ ../../Naming_Service/Naming_Service +$ ./ECT_Throughput + +# Run the non-collocated test using the default configuration: +$ ../../Naming_Service/Naming_Service +$ ../../Event_Service/Event_Service +$ ./ECT_Consumer +$ ./ECT_Supplier + +# Run the non-collocated tests using 4 suppliers, notice that the +# ECT_Consumer needs to know the number of suppliers to terminate +# correctly: +$ ../../Naming_Service/Naming_Service +$ ../../Event_Service/Event_Service +$ ./ECT_Consumer -s 4 +$ ./ECT_Supplier -s 4 + + Other options for the tests can be obtained using the -?, for +example: + +# Find out the options for the collocated test: +$ ./ECT_Throughput -? |
