Goliath: A Configurable Approach for Network Testing
Wade Fagen, João W. Cangussu, Ram Dantu · 2007
When testing a network environment and/or application many aspects need to be taken into consideration. For example, different software needs to be deployed at different nodes and different topologies may also need to be tested. The manual execution of these tasks are very time consuming and a configurable environment to facilitate these tasks and consequently improve testing performance is desired. In this paper a virtual network environment that can be easily reconfigured is presented to address this problem. Also presented is a case study with the results of deployment and containing a worm propagation attack.
