Servertest Description

Servertest - monitor how a web server responds Servertest is a small program that lets you monitor how a web server responds to requests for web pages over a long period time. It sends periodic HTTP GET requests to one or more URLs in order to get an indication of the average response time and pattern of timeouts for each. The results of each poll are displayed on the screen and optionally logged to a file. Each time the program is run it can "restart" from where it left off to continue to accumulate statistics calculated with running totals.Servertest is written in the Perl computer language. In order to run, it requires a copy of the Perl language system which is usually installed on computers running Mac OS X. Servertest is written in the Perl computer language and can run on most computer systems, including Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux.What distinguishes Servertest from many other products for monitoring servers is that it is available in source form for modification, enhancement, and redistribution (subject to a license). The program is straightforward, and lends itself to modification. Also distinguishing is that it is designed to follow a traditional Unix style with simple output and optional command line driven input yet work on a variety of operating systems.Requirements:· Mac OS X version 10.3 (it may run on other versions, but these instructions only cover 10.3)· Internet connection· 30KB disk space· Perl language system with the LWP::UserAgent package (see below for installing the package).
