System and method for an interface invariant test case

摘要

A system and method for comparing performance of two or more devices is disclosed. The method includes defining a workload. A workload object is provided. The workload object includes a transaction generator. A first test case is applied to a first device. Executing the transaction generator on a first test object produces the first test case. The first test object includes multiple first interface properties. Executing the transaction generator on the first test object produces a first set of transactions according to the first interface properties. The first set of transactions stimulates the defined workload in the first device. A second test case is applied to a second device. Executing the transaction generator on a second test object produces the second test case. The second test object includes multiple second interface properties. Executing the transaction generator on the second test object produces a second set of transactions according to the second interface properties. The second set of transactions stimulates the defined workload in the second device. A first test result from the first test case is compared to a corresponding second test result from the second test case.
