example

[0039] The configuration and operation process of the mail server performance comprehensive test system are as follows:

[0040] (1) Establish a mail server. All clients and servers are interconnected into a local area network through a 100M switch. In order to ensure the correctness of the test results, the local area network is isolated from other networks and devices to avoid additional network traffic from affecting the test results. Before the test, according to the test scale, register a corresponding number of mail server mailbox user names and passwords. Randomly select a registered user, and verify whether the server can send and receive mail normally through the mail client software verification server.

[0041] (2) Establish DNS server. The DNS server may be composed of a system under test (System Under Test, SUT) or other dedicated devices. After the domain name resolution of the DNS server, the SUT will deliver the mail sent to other places to the client runnin...

Abstract

The system includes testing management module set at client end computer, load generation module and SMTP mail receiving process module. The testing management module controls full testing procedure, taking charges of setting test parameters, sending testing commands to load generation module and SMTP mail receiving process module, and collecting tested data from the said two modules and outputting tested data after statistical treatment. Load generation module creates communication flows of SMTP and POP3, transfers SMTP message to mail server and fetches mail of local mailbox from mail server under control of testing management module. SMTP mail receiving process module simulates SMTP service. Linux multi-threads programming technique, communication technique between processes and networking programming technique are adopted in the invention.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of server system testing and provides a standard performance comprehensive testing system for mail servers. Background technique [0002] With the development of science and the advancement of technology, people's communication methods are changing rapidly: e-mail, with its fast, reliable and cheap features, begins to replace traditional postal mail rapidly, and plays an increasingly important role in people's lives role. The number of mail users is increasing day by day, which puts forward higher requirements on the performance of the mail server. How to effectively test the comprehensive performance of the mail server has become a hot research issue. The industry's benchmark test program for evaluating the performance of Internet standard mail servers is SPECmail2001, which mainly focuses on evaluating the mail system's ability to serve mail requests under the SMTP and POP3 protocols. The test results mainly focus...
