Testing and fault tolerance approach for distributed software systems using nematode worms

Published:29 July 2009Publication History

ABSTRACT

Software testing is one of the most important lifecycle step. In spite of multiple existing test approaches, no test process guarantees a total absence of errors; so planning a fault tolerance mechanism becomes a necessity. Our work, in this context, is to design a new test approach based on the use of nematode worms. The advantage of this approach is to allow a quick deployment of the test, and the implementation of a fault tolerant infrastructure, without modifying the system.
