Ericsson: iPerf3 Android App

Project Details

iPerf3 is a a program for testing network speeds. It is written in C, and is intended to run on x86-type processors.

Our goals:

• Develop an implementation on Android to allow iPerf tests to be run as an Android application
• Provide a way to configure the tests and run them automatically
• Provide an easy way to export the data for later anaysis.

By using the Android Native Development Kit we were able to successfully implement this, and provide Ericsson with a great network tester able to be depoyed on all Android devices running KitKat or more recent.

Features:

• Easy-to-use interface
• Ability for constant testing to be performed automatically
• GPS coordinates are saved with each test
• Data can be easily uploaded via CSV by either FTP or e-mail
• Convient way to view recent tests and delete unneeded ones either one-by-one or in bulk
