Product Release 2.0
SwiftTest's Release 2.0 is an enhancement of the core software for both the SwiftTest 3000 and the SwiftTest 5000. Its functionality boosts overall performance, front end usability, and enables test accuracy to support your most challenging scenarios.
Featuring
- SwiftTest Events enables concurrency testing to check your system's ability to handle locking, releasing, and notifying mechanisms for multiple users across multiple protocols.
- Writing with Seeded Random Data allows SwiftTest to write TB-sized files containing random data with a known seed, so de-duplication functions can be heavily stressed, and tests can be repeated if errors occur.
- Writing with combined data types enables customers to write data with exactly the desired data combination to test de-duplication, caching, and compression.
- Reading with Data Verification validates file system implementation by ensuring that data integrity is maintained, especially under stress.
- Enhanced test execution rules and tracing enhancements provide more detailed error reporting and help pinpoint where errors occur.

Products
SwiftTest products are 2U appliances with every port configurable as either client or fileserver, which provides ultimate flexibility in test configuration. By simulating clients accessing storage and large filesystems, you can test networked storage, storage-aware network devices, and storage services:
- SwiftTest Client simulates large numbers of clients accessing CIFS/SMB, NFS, iSCSI, and HTTP storage
- SwiftTest Server simulates large installations of CIFS/SMB, NFS, iSCSI, and HTTP storage
SwiftTest 3000 and SwiftTest 5000
The difference between the SwiftTest products is in their physical interfacesand the load they can generate. SwiftTest aims to bring technologies to a variety of environments with increasing flexibility, and we want customers to be able to choose the system that best fits their product line or testing needs.
- SwiftTest 3000: 8x1Gb Ethernet ports plus one management port. It generates up to 14Gbps of traffic. Specs...
- SwiftTest 5000: 2x10Gb Ethernet ports plus one management port. It generates up to 34Gbps of traffic. Specs...
Test Development Suite
The software included with the SwiftTest system includes not only the core achitecture, but a graphical interface and an automation framework. The interface, called the Test Development Environment (TDE) enables easy test configuration and includes sample tests and wizards to get you testing quickly. With automation, you can have ultimate control to repeat your tests. SwiftTest Automation uses an XML configuration file that you can choose to create it yourself using your favorite scripting tools.

How would SwiftTest fit into my Storage Device testing environment?
If you're testing a storage device, you likely simulate client traffic using tens or even hundreds of servers. And the software you use to generate the load may be difficult to maintain, inflexible, and require expensive licenses and hardware. With SwiftTest, you replace or augment your servers and simulate a variety of load types at high volume by using the SwiftTest Test Development Environment to generate client traffic from one or more ports.
How would SwiftTest fit into my Storage-Aware Network Device testing lab?
SwiftTest appliances are perfect on both sides of the network, with ports configured as either client or fileserver. If you’re testing a storage-aware network device you can replace both your client systems and fileserver with a SwiftTest appliance. Simply configure some ports as client and some as server, then use the SwiftTest Test Development Environment to configure and run your tests.
