A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium are described in which a speed testing service is provided. The speed testing service includes a protocol independent data model that has no dependency on a management protocol. The speed testing service can be triggered via an application programming interface request. An agent of an end device or customer premise equipment is configured to respond to the application programming request, and generate and transmit a test request to a network device based on the data model. The agent stores all files and data to initiate a test, perform a test, and obtain a test result. The network device is configured to schedule the test based on the test request, and generate and transmit a test response based on the data model. The network device is configured to perform the test and provide test results.
