ABSTRACT:
In a distributed data processing system or network testing a distributed processing program is achieved by a test manager and a test scenario. Functionally, the test manager reads the test scenario to identify processes of the system to be tested. The identified processes then read relevant portions of the test scenario and executes such portions. While the processes are executing the scenario portions, the test manager monitors resulting data from each process. If the resulting data does not match an expected data value, the test manager flags an error regarding the process that produced the errant data.
