[Opensim-users] Load Testing

[Robert Klein]

Wow, I am glad to see all the interest in doing load testing! The site mic
mentions is very well done and has some great info so check it out. It
sounds like there is a need for both automated and manual testing methods. A
good place to start might be a category on the wiki. 
Here is the link:
http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Category:Testing  :)

We will need proper scripts for both methods. I am not sure what should be
in the automated script, but the manual script could be something the tester
could follow step by step no matter what region/simulator they are invited
to test. Maybe settle on two time frames that are friendly to all testers?
The test window could be two hours to allow enough people to participate.

Here is the page for the manual test script:
http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Manual_Test_Script

There is a nice page on automated testing already on the wiki:
http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Automated_Testing

I am seeing a lot of good ideas on this thread so keep it up and let's
hammer some simulators!
