Here is a little survey to know the most used/usefull tests suites for NFSv4
http://nfsv4.bullopensource.org/tools/sondage.php

with a short description of each tool here :
http://nfsv4.bullopensource.org/tools/testing_tools.html

I had modified the tools lists with suggered tools.
I did not propose object only tools because we can't use it too test NFSv4 on
various hardwares plateforms.

Idealy we need to tests:
-Robustness
-performances
-POSIX compliance
-RFC Compliance
-Interoperatiblity.

However we don't have ready tools to test POSIX compliance
-> OpenPosix do not have filesystems tests suites (It test IPC, timers
threads ...)

RFC compliance
-> SpecSFS : there is no version to test NFSv4... (and is object only)
-> PyNFS : maybe modified to test the RFC compliance ?


Cordialement,
Vincent
