Description of drawings
The invention will be further described below in conjunction with drawings and Examples, in the accompanying drawing:
Fig. 1 is the schematic diagram that concerns between testing tool among the present invention and the media service system.
Embodiment
By aforementioned content as can be known, the present invention is to provide a kind of multi-media service system performance testing method, be mainly used in to media service system and send a large amount of RTSP requests, the simulation a large number of users uses the pressure test of media service system.To introduce its concrete steps in detail below.Testing tool among the present invention and the relation between the media service system as can be seen from the figure, comprise media server and request scheduling parts as shown in Figure 1 in the media service system; Testing tool can send the RTSP request to the request scheduling parts, the request scheduling parts are according to the information of client, testing tool is dispatched on the media server, and testing tool receives the RTSP response that the request scheduling parts are returned, and obtains the schedule information of request scheduling parts; On the other hand, testing tool can send the RTSP request to media server according to the schedule information that the request scheduling parts return, and accepts the media data of media server passback.Testing tool among the present invention is equivalent to the client under the actual user mode.
1, the RTSP url list of testing tool request is set, and the simulant-client number that is somebody's turn to do every request URL character string in the tabulation.
Wherein, the request URL character string has defined the path of the media program in the client-requested media server of a testing tool simulation.And in the whole process of client terminal playing multimedia file, need often carry out operations such as F.F., rewind down, time-out, these operations all are by finishing alternately between client and the media server, and these RTSP that just comprise that alternately user end to server is initiated ask and the RTSP of media server response responds.By a plurality of request URL character strings, can form a series of media path tabulations that supply the client-requested of testing tool simulation, just form the RTSP url list.
Why the simulant-client number of every request URL character string is set, be because every request URL character string here all represent can be by a program of client-requested in media server.In the multimedia system of reality was used, different users liked different programs, so need set the simulant-client number of request in different request URL character string back.When test result analysis, at server rather than at content, so, can analyze for different programs as long as the response parameter of Analysis server is just passable.
In this step, allow in the RTSP request URL character string of test, to comprise parameter.Comprise such as information such as parameters for authentication in its parameter, be real user when asking media server must have.As rtsp: // 192.168.1.1/path/filename.mp4? param1=paramvall﹠amp; Param1=paramvall﹠amp among the param2=paramval2; Param2=paramval2; And allow once to test a plurality of media files or direct broadcast band.For testing tool, do not need to pay close attention to whether have parameter in the request URL character string, only need in the request URL character string, obtain the IP address of media server or machine name, the port numbers of request, media data transmission manner (TCP or UDP) is just passable.Then, testing tool uses the above-mentioned connection parameter that obtains from the request URL character string to ask media server, and sends the RTSP request in the ASCII character mode, and parsing RTSP is receiveed the response and got final product.The feasibility that has parameter in the request URL character string has been described here, if promptly added the parameter of RTSP request in URL, the 3rd step of back then illustrates how to send the RTSP request.
2, testing tool is set and carries out RTSP requested operation sequence.
In this step, the sequence of operation of being made up of a plurality of RTSP requests can be set, the operating process when watching multimedia programming in testing tool with the simulates real real user.And after every operation, being set the time of an analog subscriber thinking, this time can be got the random number acquisition in the time range by a setting, also can be set to fixed value.When the solicit operation sequence of design test instrument, at first design a structure and describe the operation that the user carries out, the time of operating incidental parameter and analog subscriber thinking, the multiple of for example F.F., F.F. and think time, position of for example locating again, locating and think time etc.The structure of describing these operations is formed a chained list or other can describe the RTSP solicit operation sequence that testing tool will be carried out at test process as the data structure of describing a sequence.Testing tool is in the process of carrying out pressure test, and with the node content that reads successively in the chained list, operation and the think time described according to node content send the RTSP solicit operation to media service system.
3, testing tool sends the RTSP request according to set parameter in aforementioned two steps, the related data of real-time statistics RTSP and media delivery, and be presented in real time on the control interface.
Here parameter comprises the IP address of media server or machine name, the port numbers of request, media data transmission means (TCP or UDP), in this step, testing tool can be by the receiving media server 3XX (these codings are by the RFC2326 definition of definition RTSP, be generally 302) number response or RTSPRedirect (being redirected) instruction, request is redirected to another media service system of media service system appointment, to carry out the media session operation.This function is to realize by the RTSP response data information that the analyzing medium server returns.When testing tool uses DESCRIBE (description) method to ask the access request scheduler, the information that the request scheduling parts will provide according to testing tool, as IP address etc., provide media services with the request scheduling of a testing tool closer media server to the topological structure.At this moment, medium request scheduling parts will be changed to 3XX with code in returning to the RTSP request-reply message of testing tool, as 302, and, in this message, comprise the request URL character string of the purpose media server of notice testing tool next step request.
Testing tool is analyzed message after receiving that RTSP is receiveed the response, if redirect message, will be according to target URL request media server listed in the message.
In addition, in this step, after being supported in testing tool and receiving media data, the quality of media data flow is analyzed based on media transmission protocol.Comprise shake, packet loss, out of order etc. statistical analysis.And support is based on RTP media delivery mode and staggered media delivery mode and other media stream protocols of RTSP of UDP.
Testing tool determines that according to the parameter that RTSP is provided with media data transmits in which way, for example for Transport:RTP/AVP/TCP; Unicast; Mode=" PLAY "; Interleaved=2-3, then testing tool will from and media server between obtain media data the tcp data stream that transmits.
Because the general media data all are packaged into specific media data packet and transmit, so can by these media data packet are carried out based on the analysis of the transmission parameter that media transmission protocol provided with obtain media data the media server data send and network transmission process in objective parameter, as shake, packet loss, out of order etc.By these parameters, can measure the quality that the media data business is transmitted in current network conditions.
4, behind the EOT, after testing tool carries out statistical disposition with test result, form test report.
As seen, the invention provides a kind of more flexible comprehensive method of testing, make testing tool more press close to the operation of real user, use this method of testing, performance that can test media service system integral body is used the entire system performance of multioperation request Polymera etc. with the performance of the performance of authentication and accounting system synergistic working, medium request scheduling system works, real simulation multi-user as media server.Thereby the feasible pressure test of carrying out at media server can be weighed the performance and the quality of the request of media server customer in response more comprehensively, more accurately.
The above only is a preferred implementation of the present invention; should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, under the prerequisite that does not break away from the principle of the invention; can also make some improvements and modifications, these improvements and modifications also should be considered as protection scope of the present invention.
