ABSTRACT:
A system and method may emulate scenarios for testing a distributed system. The distributed system may include a plurality of nodes, each having one or more resources. The system may include a resource driver for each type of the one or more resources in the distributed system, as well as one or more agents configured to access each resource through the corresponding resource driver. At least one node in the distributed system may be configured to run on a different platform than another node in the distributed system. The system may further include a central controller configured to communicate with each agent. The central controller may further execute a test scenario script containing one or more test scenarios for the distributed system.
