Question: UDP binary data volume test

Open coretemp opened this issue 7 years ago • 0 comments

I would like to send the binary data

<binary zero><binary one><binary zero><binary one><binary zero><binary one> .. (500 times repeated, just as an example). Ideally, I would also like to match on some response like "Received".

I did find this documentation: https://github.com/processone/tsung/commit/36a718262b25921b62b00d16b2577f32a4bb8d29, but I kind of expect issues if I would just embed binary data directly. Is there any example of any binary protocol which sends let's say a KB of data?

Some people also mentioned (a few years ago) that one needs to write a plugin for this to work.

Ideally, I would see some kind of reproducible example with a netcat UDP echo server for binary data that can easily be run to see that tsung actually works before committing a lot of resources to this solution path.

I have used Tsung in the past with TCP based protocols and that worked. That's one of the reasons of perhaps also using Tsung for this UDP application.
