Keysight Software Test Automation vs. Spirent TestCenter

I would definitely recommend [Eggplant Performance] as an automation and testing software. Outside of these capabilities there are other tools that are better.

Spirent solution is well suited to qualify a Lan infrastructure bandwidth capacity or a device itself capacity such as a router or a firewall for example. But this solution in our case is also well suited to test a complex and numbered mpls environment. I would not recommend it to a small business as the solution is very expensive: châssis and card cost are expensive and the solution requires to be an advanced user in system, not only on network devices

7 because they lack to improve some major bugs we have exchanged about with them

I have not used another tool exactly like this because Eggplant is awesome and we do not need another.

I wasn't able to specifically test other big products but I did use other free products in the past such as iperf, but free softwares don't allow the same level of support ans ease to use than Spirent

Incentivized

• Very easy
• Customer support very helpful
• Saves us a lot of time
• Helps us put out better products

Incentivized

• Allows to qualify a link or a project to validate end of this one
• Allowed to detect various configuration issues that were fixed right after
• Allow to use virtual machines for easy remote deploykents
• Neharive: upgrade can depreciate products and newer products have sometimes better bandwidth capacity but less features
