Quokka: Visualising interactions of enterprise software environment emulators
conference contribution
posted on 2012-10-05, 00:00 authored by Cameron Hine, Jean-Guy SchneiderJean-Guy Schneider, Jun Han, Steve VersteegEnterprise software systems operate in large-scale, heterogeneous, distributed environments which makes assessment of non-functional properties, such as scalability and robustness, of those systems particularly challenging. Enterprise environment emulators can provide test-beds representative of real environments using only a few physical hosts thereby allowing assessment of the non-functional properties of enterprise software systems. To date, analysing outcomes of these tests has been an ad hoc and somewhat tedious affair; largely based on manual and/or script-assisted inspection of interaction logs. Quokka visualises emulations significantly aiding analysis and comprehension. Emulated interactions can be viewed live (in real-time) as well as be replayed at a later stage, furthermore, basic charts are used to aggregate and summarise emulations, helping to identify performance and scalability issues.
