Are there any Fedora 16 apps that would provide testing and reports please?

What exactly are you testing _for_? Do you just mean are they up, or are they compromised, or penetration test? Or are you checking response time or ??? If you want to know if they're usable on dialup to a large extent that's a human judgement, and little trick to make a site feel faster make a huge difference.

People can give you better answers if you ask a better question. :-)


I have been asked to test whether sites we are building with Drupal 7 will load rapidly, and what the response time may be for each page when accessed with a minimal or older style computer which is on dial up, etc, possibly with less than optimal copper to exchanges and homes, etc.
Currently the sites are in test phase, not live.
Where there are images on the site, these are few and minimal, 72dpi and not larger than 300px square, most are on or below 150kb in size.

I have built functional html/css sites in the past and have a basic understanding of how to construct a site that loads and responds under those conditions but have no idea whether Drupal/php provides similar load times for pages.

Under the rule, Cheap, Fast Reliable, choose any two, I would also like to test conditions with possibly less than reliable and/or cheap isps I'm volunteering my time and resources, so I wondered whether there was a test app or some method that I could use rather than go and purchase an old computer and some dial up time which would be useless after the sites go live.

Thanks
Roger
