Request: Test configuration on visual display

Post by grahamr »

It would be great, if it were possible to configure how many times a test must run before the result is displayed. That is, test must fail three times in order to really be flagged as a failed test.

Reason: We are using the graphic interface with RCC for admins to maintain a constant visual on-screen. A test might fail once, go red, two minutes later, test again and go green due to network latency, or whatever...

We'd like to have the ability to say that the test must be unsuccessful X times before it is considered failed. For example, it would be great to set a test to send 10 echo-req packets every two minutes. Only after three unsuccessful attempts, will it be flagged as failed. This is better than sending 30 echo-req packets at one time. I'm not sure this is clear, so let me know if further explanation is needed.

Yes, we are thinking about new "Warning" status...
