Chapter 9. Testing, Debugging, and Troubleshooting
Software systems are being developed with more advanced features, which needs huge resourcing that is addressed using the distributed systems as discussed in the previous chapters. However, while processing such heavy resourcing systems on multiple small computers and collating the results, it is expected to run such an integrated system providing a greater fault tolerance.
Moreover, the systems used in distributed computing can have their own operating systems and software to perform the respective jobs, while they are part of a large distributed system. Testing of such versatile platform systems is complicated without setting the right approach and solutions.
In this chapter, we will cover the following:
- Challenges in testing distributed applications
- Standard testing approach in software systems
- Cloud distributed application testing
- Latest tools for testing Java distributed applications
- Debugging and troubleshooting distributed applications
