% Registration Testing the Xen Hypervisor and Linux Virtual
% Machines
% Paul Larson (pl@us.ibm.com)
Xen is an interesting and useful technology
that has made virtualization features normally
found only in high-end systems more widely
available. Such technology, however, demands
stability, since all virtual machines running
on a single system are dependent on its
functioning properly. Our paper will focus on
the methods we are employing to test Xen, and
how it differs from normal Linux testing. We
will also discuss the tests we are using and
creating and the automation tools we are
developing to allow testers and developers
working on Xen to easily run automated tests.
