The purpose with TPTEST is to allow users to measure the speed of
|
|
their Internet connection in a simple way. TPTEST measures the
|
|
throughput speed to and from various reference servers on the
|
|
Internet. The use of TPTEST may help increase the consumer/end user
|
|
knowledge of how Internet services work.
|
|
|
|
TPTEST was originally developed by the Swedish ICT-commission, then
|
|
later by the Foundation for Internet Infrastructure (iis.se), the
|
|
Swedish Consumer Agency (konsumentverket.se), and the Swedish National
|
|
Post- and Telecom Agency (pts.se). The latest development has been to
|
|
separate the platform-independent test method software (the test
|
|
engine) from the platform-dependent user interface software in order
|
|
to make it easier for anyone to write a test client or server that
|
|
uses the TPTEST testing method. The test engine code is to be regarded
|
|
as a library module and is released under the LGPL license while the
|
|
reference client/server applications is released under the GPL
|
|
license.
