Linux Test Tools

Linux Test Tools

The purpose of this Linux Test Tools Table is to provide theopen-source community with a comprehensive list of tools commonly usedfor testing the various components of Linux.
My hope is that the community will embrace and contribute to this listmaking it a valuable addition to the Linux Test Project.

Please feel free to send additions, updates or suggestions to Jeff Martin. Last update:07/12/06

Cluster
HINT allowsfair comparisons over extreme variations in computer architecture,absolute performance, storage capacity, and precision. It'slisted as a Past Projectwith a link to http://hint.byu.edu but I havenot been able to find where it is being maintained. If you know, pleasedrop me a note. 

Code Coverage Analysis
gcov Codeanalysis tool for profiling code and determining: 1) how often eachline of code executes, 2) what lines of code are actually executed, 3.)how much computing time each section of codeuses   
lcov LCOVis an extension of GCOV, a GNU tool which provides information aboutwhat parts of a program are actually executed (i.e. "covered") whilerunning a particular test case. The extension provides HTML output andsupport for large projects.  

Database
DOTS Database Opensource Test Suite  
dbgrinder perl script to inflict stress on a mysqlserver  
OSDLDatabase Testsuite OSDL Database Testsuite  

Debug

includedtests Various tests are included in the tarball  

Filesystems
Bonnie Bonnie++ is test suite, which performs severalhard drive/ filesystem tests.  
dbench Filesystem benchmark that generates goodfilesystem load  
fs_inode Partof the LTP: This test creates several subdirectories and files off oftwo parent directories and removes directories and files as part of thetest.  
fs_maim Part of the LTP: a set of scripts to test andstress filesystem and storage management utilities  
IOZone Filesystembenchmark tool (read, write, re-read, re-write, read backwards, readstrided, fread, fwrite, random read, pread, aio_read, aio_write)  
lftest Partof the LTP:lftest is a tool/test designed to create large files andlseek from the beginning of the file to the end of the file after eachblock write. This test verifies large file support and can be used togenerate large files for other filesystem tests. Files up to 2Tb have been created using thistool. This test is VERY picky about glibc version. 
LTP The Linux Test Project is a collection of toolsfor testing the Linux kernel and related features.  
PostMark Filesystem benchmark that simulates loadgenerated by enterprise applications such as email, news and web-basedcommerce.  
stress puts the system under a specified amount ofload  
mongo set of the programs to test linux filesystems forperformance and functionality  
fsx File system exerciser from Apple. Thetest is most effective if you let it run for a minute or two, so thatit overlaps the periodic sync that most Unix systems do.

Harnesses
Cerberus TheCerberus Test Control System(CTCS) is a free (freedom) test suite foruse by developers and others to test hardware. It generates goodfilesystem stress in the process.
