Test Modules

In the following documents we describe test modules that are distributed with the lnst-ctl package. After installation you can find them in the directory /usr/share/lnst/test_modules. For information about how to create your own Test Modules, visit the page Creating your own test modules.

• Custom - Used to report Custom PASS/FAIL results
• DummyFailing - A test module that fails
• Icmp6Ping - Basic IPv6 ping test
• IcmpPing - Basic IPv4 ping test
• Iperf - A module encapsulating the iperf test tools for measuring TCP/UDP performance
• LinkNeg - Performs a link negotiation test
• Multicast - Set of tools to assess the implementation of IP multicast in Linux
• NetCat - Defines a netcat stream test
• Netperf - A module encapsulating the netperf test tools for measuring TCP/UDP performance
• PacketAssert - Listen for packets with specific properties using tcpdump, count and evaluate them
• PktCounter - Count incoming packets using iptables. This is much faster, although also less configurable than TestPacketAssert.
• PktgenTx - Generate packets using the kernel pktgen module
