A protocol robustness testing method and device

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides a protocol robustness test method and apparatus. The method comprises the following steps: receiving protocol data of a to-be-tested protocol input by a user through a tested device; if it is judged that the to-be-tested protocol is a standard protocol, obtaining a corresponding protocol type according to the to-be-tested protocol, and generating at least one corresponding test case based on the protocol type; and performing a robustness test on the to-be-tested protocol according to each test case to obtain a test result. The apparatus is used for executing the method. According to the protocol robustness test method and apparatus provided by the embodiment of the invention, if it is judged that the received to-be-tested protocol is the standard protocol, the corresponding protocol type is obtained according to the to-be-tested protocol, the corresponding test case is generated based on the protocol type, and the robustness test is performed onthe to-be-tested protocol according to each test case, therefore when the robustness test needs to be performed on a plurality of protocols, a variety of test tools are not necessarily used, therebyimproving the test efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The embodiment of the present invention relates to the field of computer technology, in particular to a protocol robustness testing method and device. Background technique [0002] For the current network security gateway products, in the new protocol development process, the necessary requirement is the robustness test of the protocol itself. The so-called robustness test of the protocol refers to the system or a certain component under various invalid, abnormal input or stress environment conditions. Whether it can be processed and analyzed correctly. It is conceivable that the number of combinations of various abnormal or invalid inputs is far greater than the number of possible combinations of allowed normal inputs. Through the purposeful combination of various testing methods and continuous, high-intensity shocks, system errors, service quality degradation, and the probability of downtime can be detected. Therefore, it is critical to immediately ...

Problems solved by technology

[0006] (3) Underflow input: For some mandatory length fields, such as MAC address, by missing or truncating part of the information, the variable cannot get enough assignments, resulting in logic failure

[0008] (5) Wrong input of message order: By modifying the order of appearance of messages, the system will have difficulty in judging, and the state machine will not be able to complete the normal transfer, resulting in service delay or level decline

[0010] In the process of realizing the embodiment of the present invention, the inventors found that the existing test tools can only test a specific one or several protocols, and when the system supports multiple protocols, the protocol must be tested for the system For robustness testing, it needs to be tested through the testing tools corresponding to each protocol, which reduces the efficiency of protocol robustness testing
