Description
Software that can be used to simulate network crashes. It came from a need of QA team to simulate multiple network crashes in a easy way. It's developed in C# on .net framework 3.5 .net framework 2.0 and Visual Studio 2008
The main idea is the be able to simulate network outage for specific period of time and any times the user want.
Main scope for the version 1.0 is:
- Be able to stop network communications in any DHCP or Fixed IP address networks. Done
- Be able to set timers: Done
- Total time. Done
- How many times the network will fail in the total time. Done
- How many time the network will recover from each fail. Done
- Create the GUI for the application.
The application now has the promised timer, the user can configure how many times the network will fail in a space of time.
Unfortunately the GUI is removed, but not for long, it will be back, but I prefer to work on the functionality first.
Main Issues
When using a big number as time to repair the network adapter the application shows "Invalid arguments where passed." message
