Abstract: Simulating a large number of users is described. A method may include receiving a test script including a plurality of commands and invoking a script interpreter. An application thread may be launched to execute the test script. A protocol engine may be invoked for each of the commands in the test script such that each protocol engine has an associated command. Each protocol engine may execute its associated command. A system on which the method may be executed may include one or more chassis or computing devices having one or more network cards. The chassis and/or computing devices may be connected to one or more networks.
