One of the things I want o do before releasing 2.0.0.BETA2 is to get some idea of performance, with respect to earlier versions of JBoss Cache. As such, I dug up something I started a couple of years ago, the CacheBenchFwk, and tidied a few things up. If you are interested in this, have a look at: http://viewvc.jboss.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/jboss/CacheBenchFwk/ If you have commit rights on JBoss Cache then you'd probably have the same on this as well. In a nutshell, here's what the framework does: * Supports multiple cache products/versions/configs * Allows you to write your own test cases * Comes with some standard test cases * Produces simple CSV reports which you can import into your favourite spreadsheet software and generate graphs Here are some of the things I added today: * Basic replicated cache support (see docs/Documentation.txt for details) Some of the things I'd like to add: * Automated agent-based testing where each node in the cluster is stressed equally and data is measured on all nodes * Add throughput to the TestResult class * Automate the process of starting remote instances based on configuration settings Have a look, let me know your thoughts. I'm sure there are many areas for improvement, in terms of how the tests are run, reports generated, etc. As we start testing on bigger and bigger clusters, such frameworks could be very useful.
