Scalable control system for test execution and monitoring utilizing multiple processors

Abstract

Various example embodiments are directed to systems and methods for managing a plurality of distributed test engines to test at least one device under analysis (DUA). A controller and a control database may be used to manage the plurality of test engines. The control database may have stored thereon a plurality of configuration documents, a plurality of instruction documents, and at least one statistics document. Each configuration document may be associated with at least one of the plurality of test engines and may indicate an execution group of the associated at least one test engine. Each instruction document may be associated with an execution group and may comprise an indication of a testing task to be performed by the execution group associated with the instruction document. The controller may be configured to write to the plurality of configuration documents to assign each of the plurality of test engines to an execution group; write to the plurality of instruction documents to provide, for each execution group, a testing task to be performed by test engines of the execution group on the at least one DUA. The control database may configured to receive from at least a portion of a plurality of test engines an update to the at least one statistics document.
