End-to-end testing isn’t really what you need: A Podcast

Many people have seen a television commercial where a robbery occurs, but a character dressed as a guard doesn't do anything. The character says that he's monitoring. Irony aside, the information provided isn't enough. End to end testing sounds thorough, but in this podcast we learn where it comes up short. Tim Titus of PathSolutions discusses the deficiencies of end -to-end and the better practices available. Titus tells us that end-to-end testing confirms the presence of a problem but may not point to the cause. Titus discusses better options. Beyond confirmation of the problem is to get visibility into your network. Specifically you need to be able to see packet loss and related issues. In this podcast we learn more how to get that level of insight. Visit www.pathsolutions.com
