Abstract

See full text

Techniques are described herein that are capable of automatically allocating clients for testing a software program. For instance, a number of the clients that are to be allocated for the testing may be determined based on a workload that is to be imposed by the clients during execution of the testing. For example, the number of the clients may be a minimum number of the clients that is capable of accommodating the workload. In accordance with this example, the minimum number of the clients may be allocated in a targeted environment so that the test may be performed on those clients. Additional clients may be allocated along with the minimum number of the clients in the targeted environment to accommodate excess workload.
