ABSTRACT:
A method, system and computer program product is disclosed for conducting a test in a distributed fashion in a test environment. A host or client may define a test for testing units under test to evaluate the parameters and characteristics of the units under test. The host or client can distribute at least a portion of the test to a remote instrument that includes a worker. The worker enables the instrument to perform at least portion of the test defined in the host or client. The instrument conduct the at least a portion of the test and may provide the results of the at least a portion of the test for the host or client. As such, the present invention allows the use of multiple resources on a network to conduct the test in a distributed fashion.
