CLIF is a Load Injection Framework

Edit a testplan

Test plan editor

A test plan defines the probes and the injectors to be used, with their parameters, and where to deploy them. Remember that injectors and probes are uniformly designated as "blades". Note that the test plan is no more editable when a test is deploy.

Blade id is a unique identifier for the injector or probe to be deployed. A default id is automatically set when adding a new blade, but it may be freely changed by the user as long as it remains unique within current test plan.

Server offers a choice between available CLIF servers, where the blade is to be deployed. The list of CLIF servers may be updated using the refresh button.

Role specifies whether the blade is a probe or an injector.

Blade class is where the user sets:

either the Java class to be instantiated as a load injector (fully package-qualified name, without trailing .class extension)

or a family name in case of a probe. Available families are: cpu, memory, system.

Blade argument is an argument line that will be passed as an argument to the new blade instance.
Comment is an arbitrary user comment line.

The last column State is not editable. It shows state information about the blade (undeployed, deplying, deployed, starting, running, stopping, suspending, resuming, completed, aborted...).
Test plans may be saved and restored using options in the File menu.

Clif tree view

The editor view show blades by type. Tree view show the same blades but organized by server. User can copy/paste or delete blades from this view.

NB : Only blades can use copy or delete. You can't use this action on server object.
