Creating Robot Users

[LaRetta]

Hi everyone,

I want to run tests across our network. I want 10 simultaneous Users. I don't have 10 Users in my office at any given time (they work various hours) and even when at work, they want to work (make money) and then go immediately home. They don't want to stay and help me beta test.

I want to script these Users. I want all systems to fire scripts simultaneously at my command. And I want to time different loads across the network. I want to test globals versus unstored calculations; I want to test various packet-handling issues. But I need to use robot users. Robots (script-fire each client on command) will also allow for precision testing. AND ... robots don't charge for their time. Ideas?

Troi Activator?

This way you can schedule scripts on each machine, or trigger them remotely as you please. Not free but cheaper than paying overtime...

Thank you, Dana!

I've been wanting Troi (all their products) for quite some time. I'll work on it. Any other (hopefully free), quicker solutions as well? I DO have SecureFM but I don't know if that can be fired from each station.
