Network Testing Skill

Comprehensive skill for network testing, benchmarking, and performance validation across all network layers.

Capabilities

Bandwidth Testing: Run iperf3/netperf for throughput and bandwidth measurement
Load Testing: Execute load tests with wrk, hey, k6, and Apache Bench
Latency Analysis: Measure and analyze latency with ping, mtr, hping3, and traceroute
Protocol Conformance: Conduct protocol conformance testing against specifications
Chaos Engineering: Run chaos engineering network tests (packet loss, latency injection)
Test Reporting: Generate comprehensive network test reports with metrics
Performance Benchmarking: Benchmark network performance against baselines
Connection Testing: Test connection establishment, teardown, and pooling

HTTP Load Testing

wrk -t12 -c400 -d30s http://localhost:8080/
k6 run --vus 100 --duration 30s script.js
hey -n 10000 -c 100 http://localhost:8080/

Latency Analysis

mtr --report --report-cycles 100 example.com
hping3 -S -p 80 -c 100 example.com

Network Chaos

tc qdisc add dev eth0 root netem delay 100ms 10ms
tc qdisc add dev eth0 root netem loss 5%

Quality Gates

Bandwidth meets requirements
Latency within SLA thresholds
Error rates below threshold
Connection handling validated
Protocol conformance verified
