SPODTest

SPODTest is a project mainly written in Python, based on the Unknown, GPL-3.0 licenses found.

A small python script for running testing network transfer speeds across systems using different protocols and data sets.

Network speed testing tool

SPODTest is a simple tool for measuring transfer speeds between systems using different protocols, options and data sets. The tool is made in an attempt to measure transfer speeds similar to those that would be seen by users on the systems. Consequently, it does not use any Python libraries to test the different protocols, but rather executes separate programs that would be used by users and measures the execution time.

While tools such as Iperf would measure the maximum transfer speed of the network, SPODTest will actually transfer a set of real files, where bottlenecks in the file system or available processing power will also influence the results.
